tbf I admire anyone who takes the time to bother their arse doing anything. its a poisoned chalice more often than not.

Re: Promoters

Haha I can see this thread turning into a severe rimming session!

Re: Re: Promoters

Make it happen then....

if you've got the time I will toss the salad

tbf this would only be started by someone who doesnt runtheir own night and honestly anyone who takes the time to establish something has my respect.

there are plenty of local ones who have different talents, but its either pure dedication or shear stupidity to be able to go and lfyer in the cold at 3am in the morning when the freaks come out of a sweaty ass affair.

I still think the best promoter there has been in recent years has been madders nand locally probbaly skev and his associates around the timeof the race course gigs

they sound like a gay tag team.

probs mint promoters just sound like a gay wrestling duo

class

LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GoodGreef?

GodsKitchen?

Shindig!?

Theres plenty to be fair.

Running twisted ive been in contact with alot of promoters, theres quite a few i deal with regularly who are spot on and do things professonally, theres a few i personally dont like, who have got there heads up there own arses & theres a few close to home that i aint got time for and who'd stab you in the back as soon as its turned.

madders with out a doubt if you love him or hate him what he done with sundiss in the early years was fucking awsome also
picked him self up on got a job at poly and look at polys now doing 3 nights a month its is with out a doubt the biggest night in the uk , i know he aint there anymore but he deffinatly get it in that direction also hinsley with what he done with polys when madders left and before he got there turned from a shit hole into aprt of gods that is growing faster then gods

also when i was spking to mx and jim at last thunda they seemed like they knew what they were doing and not affriad to help other nights keep it up lads and melt for helping me get started sounds like im rimming but i aint just saying my opinions on those who helped me

cheers mate, yeah we've been doing it for about for 4-5 years now so we know a little, but your always picking things up as you go along.

helping local nights is the best way, but theres a few that dont see it like that which makes life alot harder and is very annoying.

agree toatly with you there mate were all just trying to keep the scene alive and have a bit of something diffrent in each night

Name names, howay you know you want to.

I have helped oot plenty , Cause and effect, CNE, freaky dancing, influence, vibration , vuzz (when gav was in charge), derek & thunda (just from a contacts point of view), sunday trading, ggm,

I want names of who to avoid in future, having said that I probably know already.

having said that like, proper "professionals" laughing at you when they are sat 2 feet from you might not go down too well either

yeah thats it, thats the way it should be.

agreed

before vuzz & twisted started again last summer trance in newcastle revolved 100% around promise. now were getting to see a lot of up & coming dj's locally, people ive wanted to see for a while but arent 'big' enough for promise to book. its really good for the local scene imo!!

For the best nights that I've enjoyed in the past year, I rate the Freaky Dancing crew (beach party was poss the best night ever ), the Detox posse, the Backlash lot, the Resistance boys, and the Influence gang.

As yBnB says, big respect to anyone that puts the effort into running a night - especially when the motivation is enjoyment and not cash. Newcastle has got a banging underground scene due to everyone that plays and promotes, and I hope it stays that way.

Wow! youve put on about 10 partys all of them with under 100 people and still most of those people are off here. Well Done.
