RICE & PEAS CHECK MAY

Now this is what i dont overstand tell me were on the flyers or sp or on the radio etc does it say clash. thats y there was a nice amount of classy sex woman there do you think they want to here all that no you mean to tell me that four real big sounds cant hold the people and entertain them that not gd. to me foundation and mafia love tryed and did rock the place most of the nite may be if all of them did follow the vibe would of been on fire there was nothing wrong with the dance all it needed was for all the sounds to focus on the big crowd them. apart from that all four was there. but foundation was the best sound in there when it came to being balance and with quality easy.big avp. 

Yes fire your right that's y our sound thing can go downhill because some people don't have any love in their heart all they do fight down want a person trying to do and. But yet they don't. Own a pot to dee dee in half of them don't have no gal or any money. All have to say is respect to all sounds and promoters.

This is why I didn't joined this forum before. People say one thing when they are amongst certain man then come on here and talk the complete opposite.
A lot of you guys are a bunch of hypocrites. On the night a lot of us was out the back on different occasions discussing the sounds and most man was saying that all the sounds were ok on mid and tops but qualitex was showing up the other sounds on a bass line level even though they had the smallest stack in the dance. Now you all saying different because you don't want to offend your friends or you just want to defend London. I am a London sound man myself and hate it when sounds come here and show us up, but fact is fact soundman to soundman Qualitex bass line was on a different level to the others.
I know Gaffa and Ras D for a long time and I know they probably could have both done better on the night but they didn't. Gaffa had 12 bass in the place and I don't want no man come tell me about the 18s were playing mid because they weren't. The 6 21" and 6 18" we're playing bass and Ras D had 6 18" full scoop playing bass and 6 15" reflex playing just a little higher bass than the scoops and yet none of them came close to what Qualitex did. Give respect where it's due whether they come from London or not. I too have a sound and knows the hard work, money and sacrifice it takes to build so I'm not dissing no man sound, but when we put our sound out there in a arena against other sounds we expect comparisons and critics. That's how we improve. So if the London Dancehall Soundmen, myself included don't step up our game we will be left behind by the country sounds. We should take a leaf from the London roots sounds who are now beginning to step up like the rest of the country roots sounds.

Now to you Mr Yardman it doesn't take a genius to workout who you are by reading back through some of your comments on other occasions.
You said the flyer didn't have clash on it but when you put TUNE FOR TUNE, SOUND FOR SOUND, DUB FOR DUB. That says Clash. So don't try fool people with your little trickery. And it doesn't even matter what you put on the flyer from you put 4 sound of that caliber in one dance everyone expect a clash
I would say its the promoters fault for the dance going the way it did as some sounds were not sure whether to clash or not. I know they were a handful of ladies there but 90% of the crowd wanted to see a clash. If you wanted to make a juggling dance to entertain people you could have just used 1 sound and a couple of good djs to do that.

Greetings SE, man an man DID talk about that differently but that was not the main issue for me as I am not a sound man, but I tell Soldgie his little stack "Stan Up". If one of them was using a Gram, I would
not mind so long as they picked up the vibes!!! We know now what a treasure we have with Flip, it's as simple as that...

SE if your trying to war or disrepect me forget it when i come on here i try and keep the peace i dont have time for these thing which start arguments. you claim you know me then maybe i know as well. if thats the case then when you see   me in a dance or soundcheck come talk to me face to face that aint hard is it. 

Oh yes Wadup, I take it you were the mic man for foundation. I did hear the man dem cussing you outside at the end of the dance for stopping Choppa from going hard and you did accept the fact that it was you that stopped it. So respect for admitting that. And all the soundman out there all said they thought the dance probably would have been better if they just clashed it out. Kutty, soljie, choppa and the selector from mafia love was all there saying the same thing.
