Amen Brother Gilly.

The scene's a monster that unfortunately has eaten it's self. Too many (for chiefs read Dj's) and not enough (for Indians read punters). Everybody wants to be a DJ these days it's the 15 minutes of fame scenario. Therefore to achive their 15 minutes of notoriety their cunning plan is to blast away on e-bay on shagged well known played out records in persuit of instant adulation. Simple not quite, theirs hundreds of others with the same aspirations, bugger, they need a new plan. Dah! Dah i ureka ! plan B they start their own do and so it goes on and on. You here stories of people begging for DJ spots and even paying promotors for the pleasure of DJing doh! Aspiring Dj's aside, we come to the audience mostly 50 to 60 olds who flirted with the scene for a couple of months in the 70's and who are trying to relieve their youth, when the top 500 shrinks to the top 150 (at best) then you know your in trouble. A recent FB post had a guy expressing his shock at clearing a dancefloor with George Blackwell "Can't Lose My Head" (the bottom has finally been reached). I'm afraid to say to get back to a thriving upfront scene you need proper Dj's who can be allowed to express their different styles and taste and a recieptive audience to both appreciate and encourage them, not aload of e-bay overspending wannabees who think that they can do better. Progression was always the engine room of the scene, no engine and eventually your left with a stationary rusty old heap ! ring any bells ? Dave

One each then !
