"It's just a disco"

[Jim - Scotland's Party DJ]

The Scots are notorious for being tight.
Most I find are OK and just pay up.
You do get a few who agree to a price then want it for less at the end of the night.
You need a crowbar to get the notes out of their pocket.

Maybe you should stop taking gigs there then or better yet, get paid in advance of the gig

Yes, I've come across several DJs over the years who suffered from the same problem

People will dance like nutters to Eva Cassidy's Field of Gold, and one day I will be proven right!

Could you be any more insulting? I've been supplying entertainment to Scots for 25 years and from my experience it's definitely not the case.

I said the Scots are notorious for it.
I didn't say that was my opinion.

Or take payment up front.

I have met quite a few tight scotsmen, but I am sure they are not that bad - Having said that this year a scotsman took drinks from us all night and made and excuse at the end so not to buy a round. "im-e goin tee bed" - but he spent the next hour at the bar chatting to Alan Marshall. Thats just rude if you ask me.

I think you need to practice your Scots accent a bit more.

The rest of your comments certainly sound like you're giving an opinion.

I am just reflecting on my experiences.
These are facts that happened not opinions.

I remember you telling that story. PM the name?!?!?

Don't annoy Shaun.

Based on my observations I think Northerners are loud, abrasive and don't have much class, Southerners are boring, gutless and snooty, welsh people are always, well a bit strange. Londoners are all just plain rude and think they are sooo cool. Very general thats for sure

I don't really fit the above apart from perhaps being a bit snooty and based on this post ... rude

This is tounge and cheek before anyone sin bins me.

Maybe down south, its certainly not the case up here in Aberdeen.
