I think it's time to introduce then to Gary Numan's more recent efforts. It may not be to everyone's taste, but it'll be something slightly different, by Jove. I'm sure if I say 'he liked Nine Inch Nails' they'll consider it for a whole second as something for the 1am 'stuff' section.

I wouldn't hold your breath.

It's a faint possibility for me. Harlot the night before, so there's every chance that I'll be quite unable to drag myself from what will probably be my deathbead.

positive criticism about playlists is good, however be pro-active and message us about it instead of bellyaching

(and messages are like tummy rubs for problems, can make the aching go away)

For Requests -

the first port of call (for everyone) is the BEDLAM website and click 'Requests' these will be forwarded to all DJs

Second port of call (for who has it) is the BEDLAM Facebook group

Third port of call (who has it) is via my MySpace which is in my sig.

and lastly, HERE! you know I read it...

I have some nice new CD and tunes for you,
see my livejournal soon for details (all BEDLAM post are public so everyone can read them)

see you all on the 31st

I may gripe a lot, but I usually have at least one complaint per club anyway </moanybaggage>. If I really hated your night I wouldn't be a regular!

DJ'ing a niche night is always going to come under criticism for revolving setlists. Complaining about setlists online and on forums boards is also something that you expect and you allow for it the minute you post anything advertising your night. It would be great if all criticism was constructive, but that's not what customers owe DJs and although some customers do try, it's just the nature of the beast. The worst is bitching DJs, especially those who complain the night's not cutting edge enough

We've all had them, Brian.

Sorry, maybe bellyaching was a bit harsh, tho the bit in brackets made me smile.

I know that you can't please everyone, all the time though we do try to hit the mark most of the time. Request at the booth can be a bit random (namely 'Cher', 'f*cked up Death Metal' and a period of 'Status Quo' for some reason

) messaging us gives us a chance to bring CDs we haven't for a while, critism gives us the 'customers' view.
Feedback is good (ask The Jesus and Marychain)

Personally i love the high certainty of hearing particular songs at Bedlam. I've been going for about 9 years now and until very recently it's been the only place me and my best mate go with any regularity and it's nice go to to a club and dance to our favourite stuff rather than both of us sitting there with quizzical looks on our face asking "do we know this one?" Guess we're just a bit old and set in our ways *sigh*

*Potatojunkie* · 20th January 2009, 9:58pm

I like bellyaching.

Run a goth night, get moany fuckers for customers.

That said, it'd be lovely to hear Rico, or Nick Cave, or any Joy Division song that isn't Love Will Tear Us Apart. It'd be even more lovely to not hear Call the Ships to Port. Ta.

ladysavage · 20th January 2009, 10:03pm

a Cure song thats not "Love cats" (great song, rubbish to dance to) and a Depeche Mode song that's not "It's no Good" (cos it's not).

NowhereGirl · 28th January 2009, 10:36am

should be there hopefully, all depends on babysitting.

metalmaiden101 · 28th January 2009, 4:00pm

Not out, got invited to mates 21st

Mwezzi · 1st February 2009, 2:57pm

Awesome night - lots of people, lots of tunes and a small amount of corset-swapping made for a good time!

ladysavage · 1st February 2009, 3:02pm
