Re: get a grip!

I thought the tunes were pretty good tonight.

Or maybe the William Shatner version of "Common People" just set me in a good mood for the whole night.

Deal with it.
You wanna hear something different then ask for something different, instead of whinging on here.

Re: get a grip!

I've never had a problem getting requests played, if you're polite and just ask rather than saying "this is shit play something else" you almost always get what you're after, cos they're lovely that way!

Re: get a grip!

Aye, Solid is like the best place ever for getting your requests played. Can't believe you waited 'til you got home and made a thread about it.

p.s What happened to the window? I popped in for a coffee to kill some time waiting for someone and the window had been smashed...?

Re: get a grip!

Eh, there's a difference between wanting your songs played, and not wanting to listen to just one style of music all night.

The staff at the Solid play requests and are lovely, but if you're bored by the whole night its a kinda akward thing to say.

Re: get a grip!

I'm sure if someone went up and said 'Me, my mates and a lot of the old regulars (*points*) ain't digging this constant thrash, could you mix it up a bit?' they'd be cool with that. Certainly has a better chance of success than posting on the internet the next day.

Well, I wouldnt do it.

Even if I was a regular, but then I've not got baws like you. Not everyone does. Maybe this guy and his pals are shy.

Re: get a grip!

She makes a good point, no everyone feels comfortable doing these things in person. I guess the sub forum is also for feedback on the place, i'm sure bob and co take theses things on.

Just put the music on random skip, problem solved.

Re: get a grip!

It's never really "thrashy" during the day, I take it the player has different playlists for different times?

I mean during the afternoon there are normally some classy blues tracks on... if I go back later if I'm out with people, the tunes have usually become heavier.

A wee ned chucked a stone though it on Monday morning according to one of the bar staff.

Rubbish. I've been in there when it's been nothing but thrash in the afternoon.
Generalising about types of rock/metal Solid plays is a bit daft because it's far too varied.
