Hi all,

I had a pretty good weekend at Cleethorpes apart from some unknown assailant beating me up !

There must be someone out who knows their mate, friend of a mate who tried to punch 7 bells out of me.

I'd just like to know why ?

I know I can be an arrogant arse sometimes but I dont remember chatting up someones bird, spilling someones pint or treading on anyones foot on the dancefloor !

Maybe I sold one too many scratchy record !

I hope it was a case of mistaken identity or should I just keep watching my back from now on !

All the best

Rob Messer

Maybe you spilled someone's bird?

That's well out of order Rob Hope you weren't too badly hurt and the culprit is found and dealt with in an appropriate manner.

burn them at the stake :angry:

Jeeks Rob, sorry to hear that mate, hope you're ok? Never thought, ever ! that there would be fisties on the Soul scene. Always found it very friendly and never intimidating. Had manys a beating whilst on the Mod scene years ago, but that was expected to some extent, sorta came as part n' parcel to expect kickings/chases from Skins or Greasers, but not on the Soul scene. Pretty disconcerting to hear of this mate. Prob some drunken arse , theres loads

about, sorry to say, on the soul scene now. Never thought I'd see or hear of a punch up or digging at a Soul event. Bad news indeed. Still hope alls ok mate, put it down to experiance.

Was it a male or female Maybe they just didn't like your shirt Rob Arsehole whoever it was

It aint just your arse that is arrogant boy!

They didn't get your DJing arm did they??

Hope you aint too battered mate.

He'll get his, don't worry. :angry:

And let me know, he won't ever be at one of my promotions again. It was a particularly cowardly attack too.

I think it's the first one in 13 events, excluding the domestic when a small girl layed into her bigger geezer, so we'll leave it at that.

thats sad at a soul weekender.

you wouldnt expect to get pissed locals out for trouble there.

maybe you got a punchable face like mine.

had it twice befor at soul nites.

last time about 4/5 years ago a bloke twice my size decided to punch my teeth through my top lip for reasons known only to himself

Maybe you spilled someone's bird?

link

or chatted up someone's pint?

Blimey Rob hope you are ok ! Pity they did,nt try it at Prestatyn when I was there

I think they might have got that big lilo stuck up their arse ,you know

the one I was frezzin my bollocks off on

Hi Rob,

Good to see you on Soul Source. That's a shocker and not the act of a friend :angry: When you say 'beat you up' how severe was this, light scuffle, heavy blows? Were you badly hurt? Unacceptable this, last time I witnessed such unpleasantness was at the Plinston, but that was a couple of non soul fans that wouldn't leave the floor with their drinks. A dude such as yourself, shouldn't be on the receiving end of this kind of BS.

Simsy

Why are we concentrating on 30secs of madness?i am sure the lad will be outed,and all will sorted,lets consentrate on all the Good-things,that Jesse Davis;cover/original?,hope some enterprising person Mp3`ed it?fukcin`brill!or what?.

Just spoke to Rob, he's away for a few days so won't be able to reply on thread yet.

He's okay, except for a few bruises and a black eye.

Apparently this guy punched him in the eye as he was leaving the venue at 7.55 a.m. on the Sunday morning, then rained a few blows on him, and gave him a bit of a kicking when he was down, before being hauled off by the bouncers and then dissappearing.

There was only a few people left in the venue by this time in the morning, so no-one recognised him.

I remember having a good hiding in Great Yarmouth Mod Rally many years ago by a bunch of locals...guess who I was walking along with at the time.....yep..Rob Messer......he ain't a lucky charm at the best of times

At one point I lifted my head up during a good kicking off a group of local morons, to see 4 lads holding Rob mid air by each arm and leg, trying to swing him head first into a wall.....funny thinking about it now, but not so at the time...

As for the Jesse Davis cover up - was this the one Des Parker was spinning a few months back....if so, I know what it is....

I wonder if it is the same as the one that Greg McAllinney and I played a couple of years back - Paul McNamara provided it to us covered up as Jesse Davis and I think Greg provided it to Des on a tape. If so I know what it is too. It has a very long intro before the tune kicks off and a sort of hammering sound in the background (Greg's description not mine). May give this an airing at Solid Hit Soul this Saturday. Would do an MP3 to find out if its the same but this Amstrad doesn't do them according to Pete Smith.

Off an LP, not a US issue, can't remember the artist off the top of my head, sounds like it'll be the same one though.

Kenny's on about what a great job Jim Gilstrap & the New Belles did on Jesse Davis 'Hang On In There' as written by Sherlie.

The other geezer who thought he was threatened could have been the knobhead from Hinckley who'd seriously overdone it and thought there were thirty people in the modern room with bottles after him, then forty in the main room. So he stood at the entrance inbetween. Then he brought the cops down who luckily realised he was mental. He won't be coming again!

Thanks, thats the one, shame we were talking about completely the wrong record delighted to discover that the Amstrad could play that but should there be smoke coming out the back?

No kicking bouncers removed in under twenty seconds damage to face no more although incident should not have happened

Rob jovial about whole thing ,brilliantly shrugged it off at the time

couldnt find the guy to remove from site

But he is remembered and if he is reading the item

Keep away from Cleethorpes or write a reply to let us know why you are such an idiot

Doug

Heard murmerings about this at the Sunday afternoon session - what a pity that a moron (and coward) like this can behave like that. Obviously got no idea of the basic concepts of the scene whoever he is.

Hope Rob is OK.

It was Rob himself, who actually told me this morning that the guy tried to kick him while he was down so he grabbed at his legs, and he was left with a black eye etc......

Then he brought the cops down who luckily realised he was mental. He won't be coming again!

=============================================

Hold on Ady if you banned everyone on the Northern scene who

was Mental I think the scene would be missing a few thousand regulars

Ady, if he's not coming again can I have his accommodation for next year?

I hope Mr Messer is OK and not too badly hurt.

Mountain out of a molehill,this should,nt be the talkin point of a very well run and enjoyable weekend,saw rob just after the event and again sunday afternoon there was,nt a mark on him let alone a black eye.I,m sure culprit will turn up and when he does i for one will bar him from all our events,but hope people wont only talk about a 10 second incident as oppossed to 3 days of a superb event.

thats sad at a soul weekender.

Just like to point out that it was non of the locals that were involved with this incident or at least non of the ones I hang around with,

Sorry wrong reply...

Ady, did you get my message?

Hope you are ok rob-----I saw someone being carted off in a police car about 6 ish sunday morning from outside the chip shop...two police women had him in the back of the car i'm sure he was handcuffed---maybe the setting for a porn film ???

You ate too many of those frosties on that ad by the way or maybe it was someone you cracked up when you dressed as THE MASK a few years back !!!

sounds like you should drop the acting and do the STUNTMAN thing instead !

Rob Wigley

That was the aforesaid person who's head had gone. He actually brought the coppers down but they weren't interested when they found out he ws bonkers.

One punch, a slightly swollen eye (thats not to say it might have gone black afterwards) The guy who did it has been seen about before, and if he is spotted again im sure someone will ask him why or to contact Rob direct to tell him. anyone going up to this bloke and returning a punch will be just as bad as he was in the first place IMO

Soulfull happy slapping

Ady if you get a name and address or town let me know and we'll exclude him from Hemsby/ Prestatyn if he's booked. Unless rob wants to be revengeful !!!

Just had a though, he was def. taken away, must have released him in time to get the straglers coming out in the morning and he was with another bloke when the police drove off (who stayed at the centre). some one must know them !

link

No you're arse over tit. There were two totally separate incidents with different people. The smashed geezer went into Cleethorpes, told the cops everyone was trying to beat him up. When they got there they realised he was nuts and left him there. The punch happened two hours later by a completely different person

I'd like to point out that I was threatened too, and in a very scary manner.

There I was off my face and happily shouting out bingo numbers to a completely disinterested 500 or so people (excluding Jet, Jenny and the Bingo Crew natch), when a 'well known face' on the scene approached me and snarled menacingly in my ear "For God's sake F*&K off man!"

Well, naturally I let it go then but it's stored in the old memory banks... You'll get yours Croasdell!

You been away BB. Or is that Cleethorpes lag you're suffering?

I can't believe that the person who has cheated his way, oops sorry won, more watches, cameras and bootleg records at the Snug (so much that i am surprised he hasn't opened his own market stall) could ever say that to you and your bingo Andy

Love the picture of John 'George Clooney' Weston.

Well I would just like to say thanks to all who took time to reply / chat about this. I'm perfectly fine now - just a bit of a dented ego I guess. I dont often post things on soul source so it took me a few days to even find where it had been posted (ie just now !!) I was away last week. Never realised I was so appreciated. Brings a tear to my blackened eye ! Thank you all darlings !

See you at a venue somewhere soon.
