Venues Value For Money
Can't think of a night I've been to recently that's more then a fiver & I would only expect to pay £10/12 for a nighter.All the night's I go to are run by people where it's about the music not making money.I understand that night's have to at least break even & have no problem them making a pint or two out of a night but they also don't need to fund the villa & Ferrari? Cheers Martyn

£25 And Under Dj Sets
These list of some great tunes are all well & good but they mean nothing unless dj's will have the b*llocks to play them.Hence the "under £25" nights on occasions appear,price shouldn't mean anything it should be how good but we all know it doesn't. Unfortunately the mind set of most dj's (& I include myself in this) fall into trying impress with what they have,so the lower priced tunes take a back seat which is a shame but that's the reality? Cheers Martyn

Dancing In Trainers
Patto Unfortunately these days it's more like a prancing trotter Cheers Martyn
-
Dancing In Trainers
Patto More times then not I'd go with a descent soled shoe but have shook a wicked hoof in a trainer or desert wellie type in my day without major problems.What I would say is over the years dancing at varied size "do's" with not always room to get on the actual dancing surface I've found a preference to throwing a few shapes on the surrounding carpet?Found I get the grip I need for the odd sharp turn but also allows a bit of slide when needed,said carpet is certainly not trainer friendly I've found? Cheers Martyn

Standard Template For All Flyers?
Steve There's always a failed comp out there waiting to jump on us poor machine-men But if pushed it would have to be done on a hand fed Arab whilst been powered by a foot peddle I'm sticking with Arial Bold I like the straight lines,never cared for those bloody serifs Cheers NGA
-
Standard Template For All Flyers?
All flyers should be on an A2 sheet & all wording done in 72pt Arial Bold type.........so I can read them without my bloody glasses "Across The Board" should be banned off all flyers or most night's who use it should be done under Trades Description Act as they don't get close Cheers Martyn

Never Had It So Good
Have you heard Pervis Lee played out?Sound the dogs dangly bits when I have,one of my fave Wigan tunes is Delites-Lover which is a tune that still blows me away but listen to it at home & it's shite..........some tunes you have to get the full experience of a full dancefloor at a venue to appreciate them?? Cheers Martyn

Never Had It So Good
I just know I can still find night's that excite me,really looking forward to making my first visit to Steve Cato's night in a couple of weeks,still really pissed off I haven't made the new Lifeline yet (bloody wedding this week ),had one of the best night's of the year the other week at Driving Beat,really enjoyed Wetherby oldies night last week.While I still keep getting the buzz from the music..........that works for me I'll still be doing what I do & not tell others what they should do? Cheers Martyn

Wanted....... Bobby Sansom - Don't Leave (Sublime)
Derek No this be can't the same Bobby S I drool over everytime I hear it.It's one of my tunes I'd never part with as to me it's a masterpiece of soul music & never fails to move me........and will always remind me of Mouse as it was him I first heard play it Cheers Martyn

Good try & it is truly awful but think George is still in first place Cheers Martyn

So Out Of Tune You Can't Get Past It
We've found a winner,I defy anyone to find anything as bad as this.What makes it doubly painful for me is I think Walters version of "It's An Uphill" is one of the greatest soul records ever. Cheers Martyn
-
So Out Of Tune You Can't Get Past It
I can't pick a single note that's out of tune on this because all of it sounds out of tune to me??...........the problem is I've played it that many times in disbelief that it actually ever got made I've started to like it And the A side is even worse Cheers Martyn

Vocal Or Instrumental
I'm usually a vocals over inst man but one that goes against that for me is the inst side of The Contemplations(Rock Candy)-Alone With No Love Dontee.Both brilliant sides but the inst just shades it for me. Cheers Martyn
