Nightcaster Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I think it's time that someone set up a new pub/club is Sheffield that plays Euro Black metal/Thrash/Goth. I can't stand most American rubbish (an exception would be Disturbed) and that's all I ever seem to hear in clubs. I almost jumped for joy when I heard a Lacuna Coil song the other day (First time ever) Euro metal is heavily underepresented. Maybe we should sabotage the Crasher and paint it metal style to make a point! Do I have to hold up the DJs at gun point to get them to play Nightwish and Sonata Arctica?

Nightcaster Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Casbah is pants, so is The Sportsman I don't know why but I passed by Casbah once and it kinda scared me. It was full of aged bikers havin' a fag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we should sabotage the Crasher and paint it metal style to make a point! Do I have to hold up the DJs at gun point to get them to play Nightwish and Sonata Arctica? yes its so hard 4 the pubs to play all types of rock as old farts like to hear the same 20 80s cds as at the start of the tread but if they got there heads out of the sand to see the light they my like some new bands eg nightwish / daughtry / blind guardian. etc god i am 45 and am not happy bands like this dont get played downstairs at the nelson not even the new iron maiden cd on a sat night i think the dj is to blame as he should be playing new stuff as well as the classics and yes it was good to hear nemo upstairs maybe the change starts here the 80s was a good time for rock but lets move on and if you luv the AOR of the 80s there is a lot of new sounding AOR bands on arfm give it a ear a lot of the djs are trying hard .buffy .dove and rainbow and.dj moth boy he played to nemo track on sat night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenfleece Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 a lot of the djs are trying hard .buffy .dove and rainbow and.dj moth boy he played to nemo track on sat night I think we all try to please as far as posible, given time restraints, client base and limits on personal collections.......I like to think I have a very varied music collection of over 30,000 tracks, which I do, but there is always stuff I dont have.......or can't play because 1 request from a Dove and Rainbow 'newbie' for obscure Viking metal track up against 30 requests from regulars for Bon Jovi's 'You give love a bad name' is an open and shut case....... having said that, been listening to a lot of BATHORY in the last 24 hours, and will be playig a lot more viking metal in the future....

the_nelson Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 am not happy bands like this dont get played downstairs at the nelson not even the new iron maiden cd on a sat night i think the dj is to blame as he should be playing new stuff as well as the classics Firstly, thanks for the £10 on Saturday night. You really didn't need to. I go out every Monday to HMV and buy all the new releases and things missing from my collection (I don't agree with downloading music illegally). Spend over £100 every week! They love me at HMV:love: Just a pity they don't do a DJ discount like Virgin used to do Secondly, I'm gonna have to stick up for Lez. He plays the old 'classics' because that's what I employ him to do. It's as simple as that. We're lucky enough to have 2 rooms, and so we can do 2 separate genres of rock on the same night. And that's the way I like it. All the DJs I employ have a specific mandate on what to play depending on the night/room.

Classic Rock Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Do I have to hold up the DJs at gun point to get them to play Nightwish and Sonata Arctica? Nope - I'll play it if you ask me. I play Nightwish anyway but never get requests for Sonata Arctica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
