I'm currently compiling my list just now. Because I'm a geek.

Have you got yours yet? ]]> Music Discussion idol_wild http://www.aberdeen-music.com/forums/music-discussion/58789-your-top-10-albums-2009-a.html http://www.aberdeen-music.com/forums/music-discussion/58786-funk-machine-2010-a-new-post.html Wed, 18 Nov 2009 17:14:57 GMT I'll start this by saying thanks to everyone who has supported what we've been doing this year so far and for making it so much fun to do. We've seen some great bands come up here, many for their first time, funking up Aberdeen and generally having a great time.

I'll be using this thread to update those who are interested on how our 2010 plans are shaping up. We have some exciting ideas in early development stage, I will reveal all as they come to fruition. I will also be checking with you guys to see what acts people would be interested in seeing so get vocal and I'll see what I can do. As ever we will be trying our hardest to drive down the door costs as far as we dare. We do need bodies through the door for this to happen and also help us sustain the standard of group we now attract. For this reason we may introduce a "loyal-to-the-funk" card as incourragement.

Along with my own contacts, I've just been in touch with a new agency that we might start using next year alongside Primary Talent, who gave us Belleruche and Ugly Duckling. Most of the groups on the books of this new agency are expensive so I need to get some excited responses like I did for UD before I can make any commitments...

How would people feel about James Taylor Quartet for example? I'll put up more options later.

One group that has been pencilled in for March 2010 are The Fantastics, you may not have heard of them before so check them out ... YouTube - Soul Child - The Fantastics! (feat: Noel mcKoy)

Super Six Funk Machine will be joining these guys for a 5 day tour of Scotland and North England. Really looking forward to this.

Other news, Funk Machine Presents will be 1 year old in January. We will be celebrating by getting as many of the local acts that have been involved during this time along for some sort of mash up. I was at Cellar 35 last Friday which was the 1 year anniversary of another night and they had cake!! Excellent idea, so I think we'll copy and have cake too.

Over and out for now

I'm a white ginger lad from New Deer, and I reckon if I had a go, I could be a better rapper than him.

Did someone, somewhere decide that the "he's taken 9 bullets and survived" story could make up for his inability to rap? And why do people buy into it? He's just bollocks.

This is the chorus, which he mumbles:

Have a baby by me; baby
Be a millionaire Have a baby by me; baby
Be a millionaire Have a baby by me; baby
Be a millionaire Be a millionaire Be a millionaire Be a millionaire

Have a baby by me; baby

Not sure if this would be of any use to anyone but Bad Comapny are reuniting for a series of shows in the UK, including Glasgow in April

7th April Newcastle Arena
8th April Glasgow Clyde
10th April Brighton Centre
11th April Wembley Arena

Although probably not as good as Free, Bad Company have some great songs and Mick Ralphs is always worth watching I saw him with Mott the Hoople a few months ago and he was excellent, and I still think that Paul Rodgers has one of the best voices around.

For the last 53 years Jerry has never done the same show twice.

Now at the age of 74 he has started to use a set list.

Youngsters on here might like to think about whether they will still be working when they are 74 and what kind of music will they be playing then.

The list even has the key signatures in case he forgets how to start Great Balls of Fire!
