Quoting Power_Metal_Dom from 21:43, 29th Dec 2006
I admit my attendance as of late (last 2 club nights) has been plagued by finance troubles and illness (both of which are out of my hands) but it's not as if I'm not a frequent enough member to have a f*cking opinion as you are implying! I don't even know you so no wonder you haven't seen me, for the love of kenco! :D
And what I meant by "decent DJs" is DJs who are good enough in for the job NOT "better ones than the current DJs", you really didn't read that bit correctly! And no of course I don't sodding mean "DJs who play more music I like", I don't even know where that character assessment came from...probably your blind fury but I've NEVER said that I want the DJs to play more music that I like. I'd like to see DJs play stuff that will keep everyone rocking the fuck out!
I understand you're one of the bleeding heart, hard-done-to DJs who have been getting a lot of stick lately and feel unappreciated but come on now...fairs fair I haven't been starting these musical debates at all! But I do think, as does Captain Wanky, that a new line-up of DJs might be a way to solve the musical debates people have been starting.
EDIT: for clarity

Actually, I do know who you are. And no one has said anything to me (personally), it just gets really upsetting when you put so much effort in - to try and provide variety (like I said, people
honestly did use to complain about how samey Rocksoc was) - and all people do is complain :( The whole point of becoming a DJ (for me) was not to force the music I like on people, but to have fun and try and bring a bit more variety to the nights - I don't think I very often play inaccessible tracks, I do try and pick 'dancy' songs. It's so unsatisfying from a DJ point of view to play the same things every time you're on - why not just put a mix CD on?
So what if I'm a bleeding heart? Just because I care that something I put effort into keeps getting slagged off? It's a bad thing that I'm not a thick-skinned bitch who just laughs off criticisms and says 'fuck you I'm ignoring you'?
Also, I wasn't having a go at you personally for not coming (i.e. I wasn't implying that you're not a tr00 rocksoc fan), I was more trying to make the point that you can't complain about the musics if you haven't been for a while. Sorry if you took that part personally. I know all about sickness and poverty :P
The music debate will never be solved. I speak to lots of old members, and people have always complained. And don't put words in Jez's mouth.
