If they are well attended then they must be delivering what's wanted, maybe jaded to you but just changing the age and gender of the line-up and allowing an 'any format will do policy' may not enhance the experience, then maybe it will, so maybe it's best you suggest it to the promoter

And my niece earns more in a week than I earn in a month, it's always been the same, different folks earn different salaries, have different expenses, If you wanna take up fishing and want the best tackle, the shop owner won't give you a discount for working in a call centre, it costs what it costs, I would love a Flash McKinlay, will probably never have one, but get by quite comfortably without one,

I will never be as well off as I was when I worked full time and paid me mam a few bob for my keep, ever since then it's been a case of 'limited means', not saying all the 'youngsters' are still 'at home' but everyone has differing means for various reasons,

I've said it before, if somebody wants a record enough to post on here they should be willing to state what they are willing to pay, all this PM me with condition and price is nonsense, tired of time wasters wanting to haggle over records I'm not in any rush to sell anyway, but willing to let go for market value if they really want it, I don't bother with others 'wants' any-more and haven't for a while,

2 of my boxes came from Germany, an ex pat makes em to measure, like you say Ian he's a bugger to track down as he only makes em as and when, had mine a few years now, beltin quality and good handles, not cheap though,

Seem to remember Bob Hinsley finishing the Ritz nighters with this, not sure how many times he finished with it but I remember it as if it was every one, probably nothing of the sort, Jimmy Cobb - So nobody else can hear https://youtu.be/kOFtH67FyUk

Of course it does, that's my point, someone who has been playing to NS dance floors for a lifetime, kinda knows how to do it and usually is busy enough to demand a fee,

Because contrary to popular belief you can play a set of classic oldies at one oldies event and go down a storm, play the same set elsewhere (another oldies event) and die a death, which is why experienced DJ's like say Ginger can read what's required and deliver, the crowd may not have a clue who is playing the tunes but they will know they had a good night, A bit like Eric Morecambe and Andre Previn, you can play all the right records but play them in the wrong order and it can be pretty disjointed,

Robert I have an original demo, why on earth would I want to buy your poxy re-issue?

So now you know it's a re-issue Rob will you be throwing it away? You don't play re-issues surely?

Rob, the Rampart issue/demo being rarer doesn't make it any less of a re-issue, or does it?

Moldie, I am only referring to a previous topic on here myself, and from memory it's the same recording, not just band members, it's a re-release with a change of label and artists name, then again knowing my memory I could be making all this up lol

I stand corrected then, but aren't they the same track just under different artists names? Which would make the Majestics the original would it not?

Aren't they the same track? With the David and Ruben being released a couple of years later without the 'Majestics' intro?

Can't you cut the backs out?

Of course it is, but as I said it's often seen as 'funny', sometimes it's as though only outsiders have a drink and make a dick of themselves,

Yep, and it's not always 'outsiders' but that's when it seems to be acceptable, funny even
