indeed all levels of skill are welcome

poi spinners are a friendly bunch, so if theres anything you see someone doing that you want to learn then just ask them

and we do have a (semi-organic) bar, so you can have a drink as well as a spin if you want

Another good night on Fri, although I was a bit to bushed to be much use. I don't think pounding trance from the word go helped though, that guy played a much better set the week before. Need more bounciness! Good to see those of you that I did....

ahh sorry we missed you keyarghah! come for longer next time!

tainted: yes there are lots of meets in London at the moment - Brick Lane on Tuesdays, Greenwich on Wednesdays, Jacksons Lane on Thursdays, and this one on Fridays - we're the biggest and loudest though

Duballstar - sorry I wasn't there last week to oversee music policy - the idea was Paddy would play motown and blues for a couple of hours, then Fiend would play breaks, then Noize Boy would play trance for the last hour. Not sure why that didn't happen..

anyway no soundsytem tonight, though the space is still open for those who want to use it. Personally I will be at the Synergy Project at SEOne.

next week the soundsystem will be back on, and no it won't all be pounding trance (though there certainly will be some )

and feb 29th is looking like the date for our all night party

Hey well done to have a meet there. I like that space. I had my (very elderly) birthday party there in 2006! Spinning around in the back room with Meenik while the lovely TOm played VERY bouncy tunes, lotsa good memories.

That's a meet in a pub night though isn't it, not really a spin? Though I hear tell there's gonna be a new Tuesday spinny place soon....

irony overload Dave!

yeah hopefully this should stay running over the summer, but I'll need help if I'm away at a festival or something.

The party idea didn't really work, most people still left before midnight. But we carried on til dawn, and there was lots of space for those who stayed.

Maybe I'll do it again if I get enough requests...

just a little bump to remind everyone that this is still happening..

I won't be there this week as I'm DJing at the inSpiral Lounge in Camden, but if anyone wants to take on the organisation (i.e making sure the soundsystem gets setup on time and donations are collected) let me know

back to usual next week...

this week we will be upstairs with a little soundsystem..

also as I'm getting quite a few DJ bookings on Fridays at the moment and with festival season coming I want to know if its worth carrying on running this meet

please post on this thread if you would like it to continue, or maybe move to another day, or take a summer break.. thanks

Hey all - just moved to London a couple of months ago, and haven't had time to spin in forever, but really want to get back into it. Will anything be going on next Friday?
