Guest Mick Donnelly Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Scrub the earlier playlist I've picked up a long, long, long time want and a stash of top latin tunes. Don't know what to do now. I'm all confused. Please help me decide. tell you what ... heads says you stick to your first set, tails you play the new stuff LOL Link to comment
Anais nin Carms Posted August 4, 2009 Author Share Posted August 4, 2009 I know that feeling . I usually have all my records listed in a playlist in itunes and draw from that as to what flows . I can spend hours moving sounds around lol. Now you can afford this luxury if you are on early he he he . Now last night i went to the actual playbox and found stuff that I had picked up that I had forgotten I had. I think the best way to handle this is to apply some self control and go through the play box weeding out what you don't want to play. Thing is guys I know your style , all of you , and you can do no worng in my book as long as you play with your hearts. Having shared most your buys already I know what to expect. Link to comment

Carms I used to really work my spots out before I djed but I've moved away from that these days as doing that never seemed to work for me as I just never stuck to it ??? I now put in my playbox what I want to play & take stuff out I know I probably won't play & then just focus on my first couple of records then go with the flow after that.What I do like to do is get to a venue early hear what's been played & hear what's going down well,then go from there.........not rocket science but works for me Had a little look through a few records today myself but still not decided,no doubt it'll change a few times between now & the 15th Cheers Martyn Link to comment

He did a regular gig near the Ubiquitus chip just outside the city ...anyway he said to me how can you plan your set before you have even got through the door Carmen. Thing is the few times I have played records I have always more or less done it this way, ending up playing at least 70% of what was intended. I like to build too , starting slow and building speed up... bit like makin lurrrrve. Oh you wanna hear the Limeliters "don't leave me baby" at 4am mate its magical.... those doo do doooos are just ACE ! do you know anyone that has one of these ?

I'm with Martyn on the selections tho - watch the crowd to work out just the first record and take it from there. Link to comment

Anais nin Carms Posted August 11, 2009 Author Share Posted August 11, 2009 (edited) For the shoppers , this is on route if you want to shop and lunch prior to the 5pm start. https://www.mcarthurg...lands/index.htm That's what you get at the East Midland Designer Outlet. Over 70 of the UK's best-loved labels at permanently reduced prices.

Nige Brown Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Also just a reminder we have a room leading off the main room and bar which is for Record and Merchandise Sellers!! There is no real charge for a table but a donation to the fund would be nice! Some table have been booked already!! PM Carms if ya interested Dealers from the Black Music Fair at morelands are most welcolm but we do have limited space!! Torchboy Link to comment
Anais nin Carms Posted August 12, 2009 Author Share Posted August 12, 2009 Well the weather does not look too promissing for the weekend so I really don't think there will be a barbeque . So I would have a hot meal on the way to the venue if you are wise. They will have what they call cobs available for purchase. Pub wise you would probably better off going towards Alfreton I would guess to grab a pub lunch although there is the Hilcote Arms. Could do with someone local putting in a few suggestions on this one. To sum up the main prizes so far : 2 Torch Tickets 2 Whitby Tickets A chalet for 4 to see Chuck Jackson in October - Given in memory of Nige Shaw Given from the Heart "Donated soul pack" Given by soulies in memory of specific people/relatives that are now dancing at a higher level. Ok rule for the day ENJOY ! remember this has been contributed by all involved for FREE and what you give is ALL going to the Britich Heart Foundation. Now for the accounting bit .... There will be Gift aid certs on the door if you wish fill them in , other than that we will group all funds together and issue one certificate. There is no way the tax man is getting 28p in every pound that we have donated. Letters confirming funds received by the BHF will be scanned and posted in due course. So Over to you now , we have done our bit , well nearly ...Lets go baby where the action is ! Link to comment
Guest Ranger Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Anyone else staying in the Derbyshire Hotel? Some good deals there at the moment. We decided to make a long weekend of it and managed to get a double room b&b for under £40 a night. If you fancy a one night stay you can get a double, half board for £69. You need to use the code TRAZOOD. Oh, and a relaxing visit to Chatsworth house on the way home on Sunday. Book online use code MOVIEMAP1 and get an adult ticket for less than half price. Register with McArthur Glenn online and get a 10% off voucher to download. So with all the money I've saved you, buy more raffle tickets and support a good cause. Kev Link to comment
