Jim Stax Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 As much a social event as a chance to buy music from local and Scotland's leading record labels. Bar will be open, Snacks available and DJ's playing through the event. Reduced price tickets will also be available for the Stanley Odd gig taking place in the evening. Top day all round I'd say. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 So, who all went? Myself and the missus ended up with quite a big haul of various releases. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FatHand Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 I spend a good amount and came back with some great music from quite a few different stalls. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stichman Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 I was away with work, but the missus picked up a few top buys for me. Are any plans to make this a semi-regular thing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Stax Posted November 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) Cheers for coming down folks. Have to say that it surpassed our expectations in terms of turn out, atmosphere and feedback on the day. We knew we would have a good day just no idea how well it would be received. A significant factor on a repeat event will be the labels thoughts. That said the guys on the day that travelled loved it as did all that came through the door. The labels have all taken part in other markets around the country and easily the most enjoyable. The venue, bar and DJ's made it. A sub element of organising this was getting the Scottish Music Industry Association to start looking farther north than the central belt (they have been very keen too but no one has asked before) so fair to say we now have their attention so we hope and expect other industry events to appear. All in good time though as we are still digesting last week. John and me will require several post event beer business meetings to discuss. Cheers again if you came along, hung around for a few beverages, bought records you needed and wanted, walked about with a grin on your face and simply supported the day and the labels, both national and local, by turning up.
