Adelaide Indie night.

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

I found my Adelaide palylists from May 97 - May 98 for my indie night, looking at what I used to play it was a classic mix of whats hip then and classic stuff, I had to keep a chart for the benifit of the companys that sent me free records. So here are the most popular, it's quite long - but I was going to do this on a word document anyway so I'll cut and paste it afterwards.

Blimey, a few Beatles in there Thornsy - unlike you!!

 

You could make a pretty good compliation album out of some of that lot!!

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

I was a professional, I played what filled the dancefloor regardless of my personal tastes!

 

Or was it I let Ian loose on the decks for at least half hour a night so I could get more pissed and pull.

[Guest]

A total of 53 playings of Chumbawumba's only two songs. Nice to see some things never change then Thornsy. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/bounceblue.gif" alt="" />

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Only 2 songs - they've released 3 albums since them 2 songs!

I seem to remember that it was a fantastic evening out apart from once a week the playing of that dreadful Reef song (with 35 plays evidently my mind does not fail me).

 

One member of the Yorkshire branch found themselves in a bush in Clarence Park before their driving test after a particularly heavy session on the Hooch in the Adelaide.

 

I suggest a campaign to resurect what was St Albans' finest (only) indie night (don't remember Minder though)

[SteveP]

23 plays to the Furries and even a mention to the great Curtis Mayfield, what more could you ask for??

 

It's a similar kinda playlist to The Zodiac at Oxford (rough joint but good music), part owned by Supergrass and Radiohead. Probably mentioned it before, usually go there once in a while to relieve myself of the tedium of manufactured music... I am either getting old or beginning to sound like an art student.

 

That said I've got 68 of those tracks in my (quickly) growing collection.

 

 

[Colin Zeal EFM]

I've got 94. Not bad!!

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

I've got all of them!
