[Charlie123]

Hopefully I will be able to make it next year! I'll put it in the calander! :)

[Shaun]

I missed it last year. I'll be there as long as no gig comes in for the Saturday. Whist I've loved my trips down in the past, each time has been exhausting with little or no sleep the night before flying down due to getting in at silly o clock.

I know the feeling well Shaun.

Yes we both hope to be going in 2013 again

Whats a calander? :)

Got a gig Sat but will keep Sun free.

[DeckstarDeluxe]

New dates are going to affect numbers no doubt, chances of me getting a September Sunday wedding is far higher than October.

[Excalibur]

September? Whoopee, that should be right at the start of potato harvest, so should be possible to get time off. Brilliant.

[mattydj50]

I think that's the St Leger Race weekend here in Doncaster so Saturday and Sunday will be right out. A day off on Monday again I think looks likely.

Ah. Which race are you running in? Should I have a couple of bob each way on you? :confused:

[Jim - Scotland's Party DJ]

I had planned on going but I've got tickets for The Wall at Wembley that weekend so unless I decide to head to Brum early on the Sunday (and I'll be brutally honest, I plan on enjoying a few sherrys at the gig) I'll have to give it a miss.

Thats a shame jim as youll miss an amazing show and a fantastic night out on the sunday.

[Jim - Scotland's Party DJ]

To be fair, old Rog put on an quite an amazing show too at the MEN, I can't wait to see what it's like scaled up for Wembley. :)

I was definitely up for attending if the dates suited but I'm a teacher and would need to be in work on the Monday so Sunday night wouldn't be on the cards anyway.

[STEVE HANLEY]

Just thought I'd bump this. What's everyones plans for this year? Last years BPM thread ran and ran. No so much for this year though.

[Tom]

Was planning on coming along to this to meet some old faces, but it does seem rather quiet compared to last years thread.

Is anybody planning on going to this? Wouldn't mine coming along to say hi and party afterwards :)

[SC Events]

I will be. Where are we all thinking of staying this year?

[hammy]

I will be. Where are we all thinking of staying this year?

I think I will stay in the center of town this time.

[Tom]

No idea. I'll just follow the majority and see what happens.

[Corabar Steve]

I expect we'll be there, propping up the bar as per usual.

[DeckstarDeluxe]

Can't make it this year sadly as have bookings on the Fri/Sat/Sun :(

[Excalibur]

I think I will stay in the center of town this time.

Oi!! I spy more Americanisms creeping in. :mad: ( Or a simple typo, perchance? ) Centre if you don't mind. :Naughty:

The proximity of last year's hotel to the NEC, and the magnificent low cost breakfast on Monday makes it an easy choice for me.

If push came to shove though, I'd prefer somewhere quieter* than Reflex for the evening out.



* "If it's too loud, you're too old"! Sigh. :(

[Corabar Steve]

Reflex has become a tradition

[hammy]

Reflex has become a tradition

Not even questionable.

[Excalibur]

Reflex has become a tradition


Not even questionable.

I think our activities are highly questionable, but not debatable. :D Looks like I'll have to bring this along, eh?

[Tom]

Well it looks like that my supervisor at work is on holiday so there is no chance of me getting the Monday off work so now I won't be attending this year either. :Censored:

[soundmaster mobile disco]

Ok guys I am looking at booking my flights and hotel this weekend. Which hotel are we most likely to be staying at on the Sunday night?

Will it be the Travelodge at Sheldon again.it was ok plus it had the toby carvery for food

Or do you fancy a change? If so any suggestions

[Excalibur]

Will it be the Travelodge at Sheldon again.it was ok plus it had the toby carvery for food

Or do you fancy a change?

Speaking for myself, no. Sheldon's close to the NEC, and Monday's breakfast seals the deal for me. I may sample the Carvery on-site this year, I'm reliably informed that it was very good. Only downside is the lack of a communal area in which to hold the wind down session, after the party after the show. Thus, I and my trusty sidekick JB will be staying in the Sheldon once again.

[soundmaster mobile disco]

That's me and Alan booked the Sheldon travel lodge. Same one as last year with the toby carvery.

[Twinspin]

I dont think i will be at BPM this year. I cant afford it Sorry.

[Alchemy]

I can't make it this year either :( September is a busy time for us.

[Excalibur]

Travelodge site presently down, by Web or phone. Grrr.

[DazzyD]

Not going to make it this year as I'm on my hols to "sunny" (Cough! Cough!) Yorkshire for a couple of weeks. It's been tradition the last few years to spend the two weeks after my birthday in a caravan!! :zip:

That's a shame.

as I'm on my hols to "sunny" (Cough! Cough!) Yorkshire for a couple of weeks. It's been tradition the last few years to spend the two weeks after my birthday in a caravan!! :zip:

That's a result. Not just spending time in God's County, but being by the seaside in the luxury of a 12ft wide van, and hopefully all site amenities, well it just doesn't get any better than that. :D

Edit: Travelodge site is now functional. All booked, £21. Magic.

[soundmaster mobile disco]

That's a shame Steve,it looks more and more likely that the number of regulars will be in decline this year

I'm defiantly going that's the flights plus hotel booked

[STEVE HANLEY]

The only downside about The Sheldon is. After kicking out time at Reflex. If you want to carry on supping there's no way you can do it back at the Sheldon as last year proved.

[Corabar Steve]

Should've come round the corner with us then.

[Alchemy]

I'm disappointed as well Gary, why September though?

Didn't have a clue where any of you had gone. Whereabouts just round the corner then??

A grotty little pub that charges £3 or similar to get in...

The really grotty ones are the ones that charge you £3 to get out! :D:D
I remember queueing for that after Reflex one year, and baulking at the exorbitant entrance fee.

[soundmaster mobile disco]

I think its called the spire and tipple?

Nice little traditional pub, with excellent choice of draught beers

Oh right! I remember it from the year before now. Cost us X amount to get in and came out after one pint. I thought Steve was on about somewhere round the corner from The sheldon:daft:

[DeckstarDeluxe]

Tap and spine is a BPM tradition! Last man standing and all that. Its not actually that bad I don't think unless we have our wires crossed but its the one round the corner from Reflex.

[STEVE HANLEY]

Tap and spine is a BPM tradition! Last man standing and all that. Its not actually that bad I don't think unless we have our wires crossed but its the one round the corner from Reflex.

If it's the one I'm thinking of. It's across the road from Reflex and down a side street about 20 metres down of the left hand side??

[DeckstarDeluxe]

If it's the one I'm thinking of. It's across the road from Reflex and down a side street about 20 metres down of the left hand side??

Yeah thats the one!

[STEVE HANLEY]

Yeah thats the one!

Aye! Thought it was Neil......Seemed a tad over rated to me and it was so small you couldn't swing a cat :beer1:

[Solitaire Events Ltd]

At £3 to get in, it was very over rated. :rolleyes:

[hammy]

At £3 to get in, it was very over rated. :rolleyes:

But....................... It was OPEN

[soundmaster mobile disco]

At £3 to get in, it was very over rated. :rolleyes:



That money goes towards the late licence and staff costs I presume!

[Corabar Steve]

Decent enough pub, decent beer, good music, what's not to like?

[Excalibur]

Decent enough pub, decent beer, good music, what's not to like?

Obviously the concept of paying an entrance fee isn't as alien to you as it is to some of us. :whistle: Perhaps I won't exercise my normal fiscal prudence this year, and I may have a look in, if I can save up enough in time. :D

[soundmaster mobile disco]

[STEVE HANLEY]

Didn't you, Me, Andy Neen and Shaun Atkinson, not go in there the year before? Then came out after 1 pint cos we thought it was :Censored:???

[DeckstarDeluxe]

Might be a few more places open being in September and Not October this year? Could be wrong....

Make sure you report back your findings either way :)

[soundmaster mobile disco]

Your are indeed correct Steve. We also shared a taxi back to Sheldon travelodge

Perhaps worth looking up 'Rhetorical' Peter...

(or shut your face! ;))

[Excalibur]

Perhaps worth looking up 'Rhetorical' Peter...

(or shut your face! ;))

Rhetorical. Somewhere before sarcasm. You see, me, I thought that answering a rhetorical question with another rhetorical question using almost exactly the same phrasing, might be regarded as witty wordplay. Evidently, I was wrong.

Bearing that in mind, I will shortly amend my reply to something more succinct and straightforward. ;)

[soundmaster mobile disco]

Going by the info flyer for bpm in the pro mobile mag it looks like the seminars this year are interesting.

I'm really looking forward to the show, and the annual get together\legendary Sunday night out

[Twinspin]

Definetely wont be at BPM this year now. Im away on 30th August 2 weeks before for the weekend, and away again on 28th September. So i cant afford BPM this year.

[yourdj]

Certainly not the best date for a full time working DJ but I will be there on the Sunday.

[Excalibur]

And if all goes well, a Toga Party on the way home! :eek:

Better put me down as well. As I sit here and type, my friend from the place where it's never dull says he won't be gracing us with his presence.


Let us fervently hope that as well as the regular crowd of reprobates who attend, we may see some fresh new faces.

[hammy]

Sorry but this reprobate unfortunately cant make this year, But dont worry I will have a drink to you all (or more lol)

Meanwhile in the real world!

I could watch some 12 year old show me how to scratch/mix,
Looks impressive for 3 mins but what is he going to do for the other 4 hours of a std gig

I could network with other DJ's
If anyone wants me they know where I am and I don't charge £5 for parking and my tea/coffee is free!!

No point in you going really as you obviously know it all.

Seems weird you can't afford £5 for parking and yet you are out every Friday and Saturday. Maybe you should put your prices up? :)

MY Prices are fine thanx
It's £10 to park + 300 miles worth of fuel + wear and tear on my vehicle + 5 hours of travelling.
IF I thought I would gain anything from it I would be there, But this year my business is running fine, My equipment is all fairly new and looking on the net there is nothing on the market that is making want it. If that changes next year then I will go.
I don't know everything but If you need to go to Birmingham to learn how to be a DJ then that's your issue not mine.

Dear oh dear.

Such a shame there are people that are so closed minded.

I have learnt a lot by talking to and meeting other liked minded people and it has helped me improve my business no end.

And no, I don't need to go to Birmingham to learn how to be a DJ.

One last thing, the word is 'thanks' not 'thanx' :)

I am far from closed minded, I am a member of the NADJ and attand most of the Yorkshire meetings.
I am open to new ideas and have also picked up ideas from others along the way.
I do not need or want to go to Birmingham this year and so I will not be there.

I hope those who go enjoy it! :)

[DazzyD]

I went to BPM by train. Cost me something like £140-£170 (can't remember exactly but sure it's around this mark somewhere). Changed trains at New Street Station and we were at the NEC within ten mins of of getting off our first train. Long walk to the hall, though! I went down with a mate and we started with cans of Caffrey's on the train (which may be the reason for the my mishap/lack of judgement/unfortunate chain of events later on in the evening!). It was a good day out (but, I confess, it should have been a lot better!). I was planning on going this year until I realised it was brought forward and became the week before our family holiday. Maybe next year.

[Solitaire Events Ltd]

Shame people can't read,


I can read perfectly well.

If you want to be insulting, then I suggest you go elsewhere and do it.

[Corabar Steve]

If you want to be insulting, then I suggest you go elsewhere and do it.Probably not Birmingham though

[hammy]

To any that have not been to BPM yet I suggest you do it this year, I am so gutted not to be able to go this year but will be thinking of you all on the sunday night :beer1::beer1::beer1::beer1::beer1::beer1:

See you all tomorrow at BPM!

If you see me walking around with another bloke, it'll probably be Lee from Leap Creative / 48 Press, so you may get chance to talk to him face-to-face. He hasn't confirmed 100% that he's coming yet though.

Maybe he could brings order with him as its been lost in the post twice. This was surely I will get it. It's been that long now I have forgot what I have ordered

[yourdj]

Well after attending all the BPM's I am taking a year off as I am pretty busy. If it was the normal date then i would have come.
If i did not have an event on Monday then I would attend, but its a long journey for one day IMO.

I also do not really have any gear to go and see as it seems an off year for innovation.
I have also attended ever seminar possible so I doubt that there will be anything mind blowingly new there too.

Hats off to everyone who attends as its an excellent event and I respect Mark and Eddie for pulling off!!
Well worth a visit for any DJ at any level, no doubt!!

Looking forward to the Promobile conference as that was really great this year!

Good man. You know it makes sense. As Gary said, come and say hello in the bar, we're not usually hard to find. :D


Well after attending all the BPM's I am taking a year off as I am pretty busy :cry:
Ah well Toby, maybe next year.

The lure of meeting some of the Glitterati has proved irresistible to some who had insisted that they couldn't afford the loss of sleep entailed. The lure of fame, eh? :whistle:


To everyone who attends, come and say hello to Reprobates 'R Us in the bar area. We're (fairly ) harmless ( usually)

Was my first year attending. I went up on the sunday with Wife and son. Impressed with the EV subs, very good. Not so keen on the tops mind you. Saw some great lasers (more for nightclub use) have to say though, nothing really caught me eye. Everything I was expecting to be honest, still enjoyed it though. Saw lots of old faces and friends so it was good to catch up.

Was my first year attending. I went up on the sunday with Wife and son.
Sorry not to have met you to say hello. Ah well, maybe next year. I feel that there is a growing feeling that the show has lost its way more than a little, and is now in effect "Plasa North". Your comments tie in with that view.

As you say next year we must say hi. I would go again. Maybe they could have mobile dj stuff on one side, club stuff on the other? Lots of gadgets and performances aimed at club dj's and nightclubs. Next year they could have performances by mobile dj's instead of scratch dj's??

I never got the chance to meet you. Did you come into the bar area at any time?

Glad to hear you enjoyed the bpm experience though

I would just like to say thanks to the members of this forum who made the effort to attend bpm this year.Im not sure if I met the newcomers but I certainly met the regulars, and enjoyed a few drinks with them.

It was great meeting you guys again.

It certainly did not go down well at all.the dj changed it after about 1 minute,to be fair I think he played it by mistake,maybe it was tagged wrong.

The Rev truelove has been the dj in reflex for the last few years that we've been there,yes the same guy.

I did have a quick scan for the bar but I ended up getting a coffee near the main entrance. The only bar I saw was the press bar I think.

It was quite well hidden this year. Tucked away in a corner between the restaurant & the PA comparison area.
