mischief

but it does go wrong sometimes... 1...2...5....7...

Thats alright... still 5 hours of soul what days you in town... as it is still early days.... and i'm trying to a do around the people who will attend.. that includes day and music played... which means don't want to clash and not of a weekend...

cheers won't be the 1st one then.... 2nd one maybe

Know where your coming from Mikey... and thats why I asked for views but with a 5 start... people could come from work.. 3 hours for a drink be on the train home by 8.30... indoors by 9.30... where as some do's in London.. its home change and back again... or drink afterwork and your half cut before the doors open... but take on board what your saying

Alright Kev.... if its the same few not a prob... even if only 20 get in... Hopefully they will sell there old tunes buy some new ones and get a beer and a chat also get to hear what isn't being played else where after all... thats seems to be a problem I read on here all the time... same dj's playing same stuff... this is giving everyone a chance to play what they want...

hello Mick... Blue skies was Friday night do.. and a good drink up that is well missed... and I couldn't fill their shoes but i'm planning on this being a more.. after work drink... in central London.... near the tube station (5 min walk) near a train station (15 min walk... coming south of the water) ... it's a relaxed bar... with a blinding built in sound system... music wise.... any thing .... don't even have to be dancers... if someone wanted to play a couple of big beat ballards... they can... I have a meeting next week... so if the feedback is good i'll run it for a 3 month trial if feedback not good... won't bother....

Not at all......... need feedback to see if worth doing as I will be doing it for us.. no money involved any where... so will need support... so what is best really..... By not having set dj's music should be varied.. as no one is saying what it is as long as it Northern/Soul related so to speak... Idiot The bar i'm looking at have a do on a Thursday... and because it will be after work need some where with built in decks... was thinking Wednesday... maybe 1st one of the month after payday... then if there are sales box's Thanks for the feedback...

Hi all, I was wondering about putting on a do in Central London/west end... 1 night a month.. probably Mon - Tues or Wednesday.. But with so much on, wanted some thing a bit differnt.. heres what i'm thinking.. anyone can dj first come first served... name on alist.. next to the time you want when you get there... dj's could be collectors, djing what they want to hear tell there mates about... dj's playing the stuff in their boxes they never play out (we all have em). record dealers (anyone with a small sales box ).. could do a spot from their sales box.. so all the set was for sale... you know what its like go through a sales box and you don't know some bits... basically hear it and buy it once its finished... so it would just be a social evening... with some records for sale.. etc... a meeting place once a month for a drink after work with music and hopefully records for sale... No one pays to get in the bar... no dj's get paid ... 5 till say 11 on a school night so to speak.... would you come along... do you think its worth trying? Do you think the sales bit is a good idea? let me know before I go ahead.... but couple of bits... can't be weekend.. as loads on and then would loose the idea of why i'm doing it... also won't get a free venue of a weekend so wouuld have to charge... what am i getting out of it... nothing just wanted to do a do that was differnt... and hear stuff that is differnt... but if a dj wants to do an oldies set... its their 45 minutes or whatever (time depends how many turn up) right off to vote then home... look forward to hearing views...

sent PM

Sorry ... but got to say that Majors version is excellant

Trevski... if this has happened to your mate, did he A - Tell you so you would tell everyone you knew. B - Tell you in private. C - Tell you to let everyone on Soul Source know one of its members stabed him in the back. D - Tell you he spoke to the managment at the venue and all is sorted as its a sucess and they are happy for him to carry on. E - Or do you just feel like causing agg today. All hypothetical of course By the way joking aside.. its out of order

Hi ya Albert... hope your well? I doubt its rare....i've got this some where on a 45...... think it was 25p.... bought it out of intrest at the time...

What do you call records in the same style that are not oldies though? Good finds right leaving work in a minute.. wiggy mate hope you find what your looking for.....

Wiggy (first name terms now )... you already promoted a do on here... maybe this is your calling do the do that you want... if its what you want i'm sure others will want it as well... and attend it and support it... promote it as an uptempo night.... see what happens.. most of us probably got in to "northern" because of uptempo stuff any way..

Told ya... todays wishy washy is tomorrows classic... when it goes up in price... I think Wiggy has got us all at it... looked at the do he promoted on here.. An across the board deejay lineup Wiggy... your do you promoted was across the board....

Not a personal insult... it is what Bearsy buys.... ask him

Take that back about bournemouth... they like to play across the board for everyone... like most do's I suppose....

Its all that shi* you keep buying.... I'm with Vince on this... Bournemouth tomorrow night... is always across the board.. nothing set in stone... just where the dancers want it to go...

was gonna say the same... talk a little louder....

Found this as well... (sorry i've never heard of it before)... https://www.discomusic.com/101-more/6193_0_7_0_C/ Wet Playing Your Records Never "wet play" your vinyl records. Thoroughly clean AND dry them before playing. "Wet playing" sounds like an ideal solution-at first. In reality the liquid starts to evaporate as the record is played and the needle just starts to dig the junk further into the grooves and now contaminates the entire disc. It clogs up the styli muddying the sound and can cause damage to the styli and cantilever as water seeps into the cracks and erodes the glue that holds it together. As this crud starts to dry it just makes it more difficult to now properly clean the record. Once a record is "wet played" it needs to be played that way again to sound acceptable. With thousands of records in our music collections the last thing one wants to do is ruin them. Please don't "wet play" a record unless you know that you are going to discard the disc and want to get one last shot at archiving / restoring it to a digital medium.

Okay I have no idea what your on about... but looked up wet played.. and came across this... https://www.soundfountain.com/amb/rc1.html#WET

Excello 2308 - Crystal Blue Persuasion* / My Baby Loves Me ... Bit of a favorite of mine.... good dancer played it out a few times in the past... does it get played much any where else?

Great tune...
