Ravey New York dance music - late 80s-early 90s

[woops]

he's gone away to think about it. furiously googling "is it cool to like Ravey New York dance music - late 80s-early 90s or will The Lads laugh at me?"

He's emailed this question to @mvuent waiting for reply

 

[Benny Bunter]

In which I conclusively proved beyond all doubt that NY shits all over Detroit and Chicago. Revisionist history thread.

Classic Facebook post by Frankie Bones:

This is the largest event I ever played at - Stone Roses at Spike Island 1990. In their book one of their managers who was a drunken bell end, proclaimed I got booked by mistake thinking I was Frankie Knuckles. I mean I do appreciate the thought. Being mistaken for one of the best DJ'S who ever did it. Godfather etc. I even got 5 knuckles in each hand! 33,000 people at their event. Stone Roses? My manager told me I was opening for The Rolling Stones.

I didn't know Americans said "bell end" - is it a common phrase over there or is it just cos he was an anglophile?

we don't say it, he probably did because he was taking about an English manager of an English band playing a festival in England.

Thanks for clearing that up, it is pretty much what I expected. You are missing out though I feel as it is a satisfying, versatile and thus very useful expression. I think that I would probably hyphenate it though, another clue that Bones was an inexperienced user.

how will I know I wont get the gus treatment?

 

[IdleRich]

It's a sad state of affairs when to experience proper English hospitality one must go to Portugal.

 

[IdleRich]

Can't believe I was planning to drop everything when Gus lost his wallet, was ready to rush to the airport, give him a lift, lend him money, put him up for the night if need be... whereas my compatriots couldn't even be arsed to cross the street to see if he was ok. I truly feel embarrassed, I'm not even joking now.

Sufi let him sleep in his shed on the allotment what are you talking about

[IdleRich]

I'll admit that I was not aware of that... but it wasn't Sufi I was thinking of who disgraced the nation.
