Having a look at Lynda's list (:respect: ), I was just wondering what people who won't be at Camber are planning on doing this weekend?

You weren't to know Tiggs.... two more options:

Friday :

BEDFORD Corn Exchange...
I do believe Marc Forster is sharing the decks with the resident DJ Roy. I will be there for sure. :clap: :clap: :clap:

Anyone else coming?


Saturday :

NOTTINGHAM. Marc is DJing with Nigel :clap: :clap: :clap:

Am I an MFG? (Marc Forster Groupie). Yes I am :grin:

My body is a slave to his rhythms and grooves.

Don't think I'll make it this month John, sorry. Where is it again though, in case something happens to change my mind? :)

There's also a Leroc party on Saturday in the Woodside Halls in Glasgow that I was thinking about...

It's in the Terrace Bar, Edinburgh university students union, Teviot Row House, which is on Bristo Square Ducasi. if you are coming through by train, once you come out of waverley station, it's up the Mound and over George IV Bridge.

I'm still not completely convinced about going though . . . . . . last time I was there the acoustics were so bad that I went home with a thumping headache :sad:

That was probably my dreadful dancing that night.

It can't have been too noisy as Katherine slept through about 2/3 of the night :what:

Almost wishing I wasn't doing Camber now I know Marc's doing the double near here :(

I'll be there too (as you know) my only concern is - who are we going to dance with...? Come on chaps, I'm sure ZW will make it worth your while.(Tee hee :devil: )


Bad timing as it clashes with Camber. Hopefully it will be repeated on a weekend when nothing else is going on as I know a lot of people who would and do travel for Marc's music, including a good few from London, which would make a nice change from us travelling down there.

Hopefully the flood damage in my house will be sorted before the next Corn Exchange so I could even offer accomodation. :sad:

'provide FOC'
=
'provided Free Of Charge'.

That would be soooooo boring.....(but very generous :))

Well in the end, my resolve to not dance this weekend, broke:rolleyes: and I went to Hipsters. Loads of space for a change and some really nice dancers. Jons set was one of the best i've heard him play. So good i had to go and tell him at the end of the night. It made my night, to find tucked away in the corner, Paul Warden and a group of WCS dancers.:clap: Jon played a fair few west coastable tracks which was heaven. So glad i went, but i'm definately not doing Twyford tonight or Ashtons tomorrow.:innocent:

Thank you, I had a really good night too. So glad I didn't have to leave you unfulfilled.... :blush:

Made a nice change to have space to dance and the music was well varied, hopefully catering for everyone, WELL DONE MARC & ROB :respect: :respect: Even Marc's little misshap with the equipment was well timed as it gave us time for a quick chat and a breather before we went again. :wink:

Not sure but there may be a change of plan for tonight, I'll keep you posted when the 'Boss' decides. :flower:

I dunno David, when I needed a man to dance with I had nooooooo problems finding one! :eek:

Oh yes that's 'cos i never did gosh darn!

Still the room got bumpy mid section.

'twas really nice to see that when Marc wasn't happy with the sound quality he went and got an extra speaker bin.
How many dj's would do that then?
Credit Marc!

Thats like a checkout girl making eye contact when she says 'Have a nice day!' - it means somat!

Wow Rebecca! You've got some guts!! Mind you, I wouldn't mind giving this a try myself... so long as the parachute bloody works!!! :rofl: I've done paragliding over the sea at Cyprus, but then if something was to go wrong, at least I'd land in the water!!! :rofl:

Not much of a help from a great height....

"Tis a simple fact about water: it's an incompressible fluid. Even plain earth will compress when hit by a falling body, and if you add grass, etc, it's even 'bouncier'. Basically, falling on water at high speed is like falling on concrete, except concrete won't swallow you after breaking your bones and rendering you unconscious."
