Just pointing out the realitys of djing,thats all..........competition for djs,whatever next........just go out and listen and then hire them,cause for the life in me cant see how anybody can see whats what from one night........hire a dj or just put somebody on.......there`s too many djs anyway,best from a negative Ken.

exactly!! there are too many, :unsure: and how can we listen to them if they don't get booked !!????

as a promoter it can be difficult, when inundated with requests from people we don't know :rolleyes:

which we get in Newquay, they all want the chance, and we will do that for as many as possible

on the thurs, and the promise of bookings from there on ! Call it what you like, its up to the person that does the best whether they take the opportunity to do well or not I was waiting for the 1st negative comment Ken, thats soul source for you, congratualtions :lol::rolleyes:

Up & comin DJ's, plus established ones wanting to play something a little different & virgin DJ's are all welcome to give it a go in our Freestyle Room.

But like Ken highlighted, they don't get paid, just a free pass for them and a guest.

If they are travelling from Newquay, that can be a bit expensive.

We do go to all allniters next year, so may be worth the trip.... :unsure:

We are down there on our hols again this year but we go back Sat 18th Aug, anything on in the three weeks prior to then?

The Newquay weekend attracts people from all over the country, , Bolton, Manchester, Newcastle, Midlands etc, I would say a large midland crowd, and so far no one from Newquay has asked for a spot !! :lol:

We have our regular Newquay soul night july 7th, but thats it , nothing else in cornwall

shame, but thats how it is down here, soul starved ! We have to travel to get our fix yes.gif

Hi Jo,

Spoke to Karen last night.We're booked up so far this year but next year no problem.Plus we pay all our dj's.Obviously depends on how many turn up but free entry for 1 guest with dj.

As we get room for free all we fork out for is equipment.

Any spare slots as people do cancel will be in touch.

Regards

Dave.

We were down a few years ago and the nearest one on while we were there was Exeter, Lee Vowels had a minibus going up but after travelling 300 miles to get there, we didn't fancy another 200 mile round trip to go out.

We did make it for one of the events held at The Griffin a couple of years back.

Great to have a holiday and include a bit of soul.... :unsure:

Guest soulmaguk

hi,

i was at the last 2 Newquay weekenders and had an excellent time. i like the sound of open DJ nite, some of the collectors of rare vinyl in scarborough don't get the chance to air records, as our soul club organisers just wanna play the classics and usually are bootlegs, they do it purely for bums on seats and charge the rest of us to get, and that bores the pants off me. I certainly would like to have a pop at spinning my recs..my collection is quite rare to obscure with no boots! my e-mail is soulcashuk@yahoo.com

regards Jock from Scarborough.

:thumbsup: WULFIE, I BET MY SINGING VOICE IS WORST :no: I WAS DOING KARAOKE ONCE(AND ONLY THE ONCE)WHEN THIS GUY CAME UP TO ME AND SAID=DO YOU KNOW HOW TO SING FAR AWAY!! I SAID I DON,T KNOW THAT ONE :ohmy: LOL ENZO.

OK , can't say thats happened to me ( basically cos I steer clear od karaeoke totally) - but it is a family trait the bad singing voice

Both Mum and Sis sound like Hilda Ogden on acid
