Good or bad venue
Great thread!!! I think everyone has had some mad experiences....a couple that spring to mind (won't mention where and dj,s) #1 the line up on the decks was superb and expecting plenty of rare records played...turned into a Motown night for the !ocals...there is playing to the f!oor.... but it was advertised as a northern do with top dj,s playing....#2 arrived at a working men's club, lots of windows boarded up and my mate who was driving his 60k company car crapping himself!!!...bucket catching the water from the leak in the roof as you walked through the door...was a great night!!....Keith Money was playing his brilliant mid tempo records...cheap beer, friendly but a tad scary with the localsπ....just as it should be!!!...thank you...Rob P.s didn't mention dj,s from the 1st event I mentioned.

Got Β£1000 for my sassy demo on jm,s last year I think? Was offered Β£600 touting it about the scene so sometimes it's the selling platform to use without a doubt....Rob

the price crash on vintage vinyl just wont happen.
As soon as there is a recession, (which there is, will be) people invest in physical things....gold, cars, watches, rare records...generally as soon as the economy settles prices settle.....the exception seems to be rare bloody soul recordsπππ.....Rob

I'm sort of thinking that maybe...people buy and pay these prices from places where they don't have the abundance of soul do,s and massive access to records that we have?? If as Dobber says Japan for instance, the logistics of getting expensive vinyl over there would be/is a nightmare. They know Manships is established and reliable so pay the prices...just a thought....thank you...Rob

Quick question about cleaning records
I used it the same, neat on a clean micro fibre then buffed with another clean micro fibre, in a clock wise direction (although anti clockwise also fineπ).....Rob
