I don't feel any need to DJ what so ever Beeks. I don't consider myself a DJ. Never have. Never will. Every once in a while I do get asked to do a spot and I would like to think I do a good job. That said, it honestly wouldn't bother me if I never DJ'd again. I get my buzz on the dance floor. It's where I am happiest and that's what it's all about for me.

But why the big need to DJ at all?

How anyone can ask a promoter for a spot is totally beyond me. Don't you feel embarrassed? Jeez, I am cringing just thinking about it.

If you have to ask for a spot then it's obvious you are rubbish

The Esquires - Get On Up And Get Away. Every track a winner

Oops, I should have said I think all DJ's should get paid the same.

I have never been bothered about the money side of things as far as DJ'ing myself is concerned. Although I did find myself in the middle of bit of a hoo ha once But to be fair that didn't stem from the amount of the wages but over something the promoter said to me. Anyway, that said, I am bothered about paying other DJ's. I do not promote, haven't got it in me, but every guest DJ at DDA gets paid. Not mega money, but they always get paid. We, as in Paul, Karl and myself, are paid a set amount for doing the back room at Lowton and that amount is split equally five ways. If the occasion ever arose where it had been quiet and the amount we were paid was less than usual, we would make sure our guest DJ's got paid the usual amount and we would go without. End of. It would be interesting to find out people's views about whether all DJ's should get paid the same. Or do you feel some DJ's deserve to get paid more than others?

Absolutely! Every bit as good as I Miss My Baby & Bari Track. Like I said, I hate instrumentals but this tune is far too good for vocals!

It was certainly played there Grant. By Gary Spencer if my memory serves me correctly? Then again I could be wrong. Chalky will remember I'm sure.

Ha ha... how you doing Paulie

Paul Sadot had this up for sale recently. I think it sold, although I may be mistaken. Might be worth a try just in case. I do know he wanted a lot more than £700 for it though.

PMSL at the thought of you frantically searching for such a word. Brilliant

If that's what it looks like then this thread is going to get interesting. Might even give the Levine thread a run for its money

The Brothers - Are You Ready For This?

Every Little Anthony record I hear from now on will remind me of two people I don't bloody know

They don't owe me money so I will no doubt be told to sling my hook. It's a really bad show when the promoters can't even be bothered to come on here and say something to the people whose money they have taken. Oh, my friends cheque bounced as well

Excuse my ignorance, is the book just about Wigan?

Samsoulster? Is that you Ginger

Ouch !!!

Some records are just too soulful for their own good. This being a prime example. Like Wazz, I can only dream of owning records as good as this. Come on you wallets out there, do yourself a favour!

Wow. How sad.

Like I said, I haven't looked. Definitely wasn't booted though was it?

How are ya big fella?

Got mine of Dave Evison at Leighton Buzzard all nighter (wasn't easy) and I can't remember seeing another for sale. But then again I haven't looked. Have seen the others by her on Academy for sale loads of times. Great tune indeed.

This wasn't booted was it?
