Is anyone else with me on this one?

I went to Penningtons (formerly Maestros) in Bradford on Boxing Day for Retro night. Paul & his son Ben were playing & they absolutely stunk. lol. When i went to Angels in Burnley in Jan93 he rocked the place & now he plays remixed, commercial shite. Whats happening?
Do we need to here Michael Jackson & Madona playing at a retro night? me thinks not.

Anyway, rant over

Hmm funny that , thats the first year since 99 I didn't play new years eve up there ... and haven't been back since so can't really comment ..

Most of the Retro events i've done in the last few years have been in place of Paul rather than with Paul so I can't really comment peeps ..

Might be a bit bias i know but there is a message board on the retro website www.retroevents.com

If you don't like it then don't go, it's that simple. I can't believe the amount of people whingeing about nights out. It don't matter where you go it's what you make of it when you get there that counts. As far as the music goes, the people who are whingeing about the remixes and stuff, well they would still moan if they played the classics all the time. The same tunes get a bit monotinious if they are played ALL the time. Some of the thin and cheeky trax series are excellent and get the place rockin. STOP MOANING AND GET DANCING

yeah but a lot of people dont just go out relentlessly dancing,.. a lot of the older (and younger so im not being ageist) peeps prefer to have a quiet natter in the pub with their mates of a weekend, and save up for a specific night just playing old stuff which they may make their big monthly event, at which they may have

1. been told will be playing classics on forums / posters / billboards / fliers (which as a general general rule we will call piano and vocal led house from 88-95, just to be general like so we dont get into an arg about what tunes we can expect classics to mean)
2. and if i bought a car that was advertised as having air con, i would not make the best of it, with the hot cold air blower, i would tell other people that might be buying this car because it comes with air con, that they would perhaps be better not buying it cos it in fact does not come with air con, it has been misadvertised, it is illegal, it is morally wrong and in the same sense shameless promoters who offer specialist nights that are no different than normal nights should not advertise specialists nights,

we all know old skool and club classics seems to bring in big numbers with everything going nostalga mad at the moment, so i wonder if people are advertising to get peole through doors,


dont get me wrong i dont begrudge a promoter making monay, they deserve to,.. but the paying customer also deserves to get what they pay for

You are right Dave, I am not gonna argue with you. What you have to remember though mate is that the vast majority of those people attending these events go again and again and don't want to listen to the same tunes all the time. It's a hard choice to make by these promoters but they have to please the majority and not the individual.
It would get a bit boring if you went to an old skool night every week and they played the same tunes over and over again. There are thousands of classics out there to choose from, it just depends which type of classic is your paticular flavour
