No poll that's not fair I really wanted to vote :D

Anyway I only buy black that way I've always got a pair.

Oh you put the poll on after I did this, never mind I will definitely vote now.

Its the way the system works, it must post the text before it goes to the screen to add the poll details.

That would have got too silly, anyway I aimed it more at males as there seems to be more of them on the forum.

I'm still in my work clothes so it's black socks at the moment.

Actually, for any Father Ted fans out there, I didn't buy them from "Habit-at" so they may just be very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very dark blue! ;)

Absolutely brilliant! I remember seeing Neil Hannon (Divine Comedy) doing a support act at a big stadium gig (can't remember who was headlining - I only went for Neil!) and he sang this. What a crazy experience that one! (and one to tell the grandkids about!).

Some are army & some are air force. Most of mine are black, apart from the brown ones, the green ones & the one pair of dark blue ones.

Used to have some red ones & the only pair of white ones I've ever owned were sports socks & were worn appropriately

Sorry to quote my own post....but if there are any Personality DJ's out there this may be of use to them.

There is an uptempo version of a song that I mentioned above to the tune of Ronnie Hiltons "Windmill in Old Amsterdam"......

Replace "a little mouse with clogs on" with
" a banker(?) with white socks on"

This can be fun when in a cosy atmosphere.Put the track on and get everyone to check wether one of the male members of the audience is wearing white socks...they get really embarassed if they are.:D :D

I nicked the idea of Joey Blower on the North Pier at Blackpool.;)

Before all the purists come rushing on and say that is cheap and nasty......I know it is!!But it might get you out of a tight spot one night.....OR INTO ONE.
The song doesn't contain the word banker....just a very similair word :eek: :eek:

I have to stick up for Martin here :eek: Fair enough most of us on here would not condone that sort of act - but that is not the market most of us on here are aiming for, however, and I know you have not insuated it, there is nothing wrong with that market - it makes him/them money which at the end of the day is the result most of us want.

....however, and I know you have not insuated it, there is nothing wrong with that market ....Absolutely right - if that's what you're target is, then fine.

My only concern is that aspiring/new DJs on here could read the initial piece of advice from Martin about this track and take it at face value: hence my comment about the majority of DJs on here not playing tracks with bad language.

I actually refrain from swearing myself ...when I'm working.

If you look back I did mention that I haven't used it for ages ....in fact it was something I forgot I used to use until we started talking about socks!!

Would I use it again......yes probably....If the occasion was right....and thats where the skill comes in.If its going to bomb....it does big style!!


You mentioned the younger DJ's perhaps being influenced by my advice.....I doubt it.They seem clued up enough not to take any advice from any old geriatric, seveneties has been DJ.

By the same token....when the audience is that age group it has worked best of all.They love taking the :Censored: out of each other at that age!!;) ;)

To be in that exact situation?

I can't think of anything worse.

The lowest common denominator. It has it's place sure, but it's not for me.

I'd rather stick pins in my eyes.

Seriously nothing could make me do it.

I couldn't stand it.

Just thinking about it is making me feel ill.

Absolutely not.
