music wanted for Friday's party - bring an iPod / mp3 player

[Mark]

The Magdela have a sound system which people can plug their mp3 players into, so please feel free to make a 30-60 minute play list to play on the night. It's a smallish room that holds about 70 people and it'll be background music so please don't bring banging hardcore techno but rather something that will gentle massage the ears of those that listen to it enabling them to relax and enjoy the evening.

Please let me know below if you're interested as I may have to create an order of playlist. I'll start and play some music for the first half hour/hour and I know Mockney may play some tunes, anyone else?

[Ant]

I'm up for this.

[SeanMacGabhann]

Yep - I've got my half hour sorted already (tu)

[Brendan]

Are you being brandist Mark? Are other makes of MP3 player not welcome?

[Mark]

I was yes, but all are welcome so I've now changed the title now to appeal to the minority as well.

[Jah Lush]

What! No decks? Bah!

[Ant]

How does it connect? Is it like a iPod dock sort of thing, or through a headphone size jack? Just wondering whether I can use my little shuffle instead of my big old iPod.

[Brendan]

If I remember correctly from my birthday party it is a headphone jack.

Although I could be wrong as the whole day is a bit fuzzy and my mate was in charge of the music.

[Mark]

Yes, it is a headphone jack plug that will go into any mp3 player.

Brendan, the entrance to get upstairs on party night is to the left of the bar, is that right? I've been to have a look but both times I went through the right side which I think is the staff entrance but I think I should let people know on the announcement.

Thanks

[fonson]

No probs, I will bring the Jazz Funk, soul and soulful house to the table!!!!

[Brendan]

Mark.

The Entrance is to the left of the bar through the door, passed the men?s bogs and up the stairs. Unless they have changed it in the last 3 months.

I inadvertently used the one to the right of the bar once and the chef got quite irate. So I used it again to wind her up. I really shouldn?t have done so. It nearly got nasty.

[fonson]

So I assume the connection is phono to mini jack?

[Ant]

Great, little shuffle it is. I shall cram it full of assorted stuff this evening.

[Keef]

Is there a CD player? I'd planned to burn a half hour disk (old school). Otherwise it means putting my phone on music only mode and using that, but that's a pain in the arse.

[Brendan]

If there isn't you could bring a portable cd player and plug it in.

[Keef]

Good point batman.

[Brendan]

If my memory serves correctly there is just an amp up there. No cd player.

[capt_birdseye]

I will bring my copy of High School Reunion 2.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Have comb, paper and candle in case of blackout.

[Jah Lush]

I'll leave the deejaying to you guys. You can fight it out amongst yourselves. I'm going to be far too busy drinking and being a social butterfly and putting faces to names and hopefully making a few new friends which is what these things are about anyway. Cheers! Happy birthday!>:D

So will I, Jah. I've done all my deejaying already - all it'll take on the night is plugging in and hitting play. :))

I've chosen 18 songs, which iTunes tells me will last exactly one hour.

Im liking the team effort here guys. I would sample some of my own music but my pod has been possessed.

Good Music. New people to meet. Good Atmosphere and Drinking

...cant wait!
