    I think you deserve loads of credit for doing what you're doing. A lot of people give out about venues and Da2 took its fair share. But as far as I can see Da2 is the only venue represented on this board and the only venue actually listening to and responding to its audience's needs. Is it true that both yourself, Mic and the other guy who run Da2 don't really get paid for what your doing?

    Cracking job boys...

    Respect to Da2 just increased by 2 notches on the respectometer.

    I can wear my Da2 t-shirt with pride... and not just as pajamas anymore.

    Yeah and they helped smuggle hungry african children out of war torn Somalia in 1994.

    Nah, just kidding... I've no idea, they could very well be doing it out of love of music.

    Keep up the good work,

    Keith

    Did you have something to do with Power of Dreams, Mick? My brother was really into them... I heard that song on It's All Good compilation and I thought it was brilliant. In fact Manics, in reply to your other thread on 'Coloured people' and hip-hop, there's an Irish band that has that sort of flavour... and I think you'd like them.;)

    D'yknow, I was just having a conversation with someone about this the other night.


    I'm finding it so hard to believe I post on the same board as someone from my All Time Favouritest Band from my teenage years.....

    I still have a shedload of POD paraphernalia......sigh....them was the days...... And my mammy would never, ever let me go up to see them play......and I so would have been a screaming teenage girlie fan.....sigh.....
    I can wear my Da2 t-shirt with pride... and not just as pajamas anymore.

    I want a DA2 t-shirt.

    DA2 is cool.

    At the risk of being cheesy, if I brought my POD tapes into DA2 the next time I'm there could I get them autographed...?

    It'd mean ever so much.....!!:D
