So of those who went to the NADJ AGM, what did you really think of it ?

 

I drove the 400 mile round trip to attend, and thought it was quite badly organised, we brought our tickets in advance at £8 including the seminars.

 

£8 wasted in my opinion.

 

It was only a fiver on the door, and the seminars were not well adverrtised, and pooorly signposted, in fact I missed all of them, so wasted my money completely.

 

I had to return to my van after about an hour, and when I returned I was not asked any questions despite not having my lanyard on, so in theory it could have been my 'first' vist, and I would have got in FOC.

 

Once inside I even asked for another one, and was given on, so I could have gone outside to a waiting mate, and we could have both got in free, including the seminar that would be £16 saved.

 

OK, the show, not too many exhibitors dispalying, but that was OK because it was two small room, and not much space for anything much.....which was lucky !

 

I went tpo the show to see three or four things, Ots DJ, Denon, Bose and someone with some flightcases.

 

Denon were easy to find, but couldn't get on with the HD2500 !!, but did get on with Marky and Gary.

 

Bose were easy to finbd too, but a small 'stand' too, and no Mk2, but I knew that by speaking to Andy the rep last week.

 

Ots had one laptop on the end of someone else's table, with no signage at all, I had to ask an 'official', who asked another until we found Ots ! We missed the display, which started 15 minutes after the show opened, surely a little too quickly for most people to arrive, get a coffee, sign in, and get organised ?

 

Flightcases ?

 

One exhibitor only, and although helpful didn't have what I wanted.

 

We statyed a little longer, and met up with Mark from MixMash, a very nice bloke, with some serious kit, other exhibitors were more intrested in playing with thier own kit rathern than selling it.

 

I did think that most people wanted to be loluder than the next rather than selling thier wares, just showing it off.

 

Met a few members here, Tony, Danno, Kinky, Dale etc, then left at 1800hrs to drive home, arriving home just before 2100hrs.

 

Still it was an opportunity to make some phone calls with all that dead time driving.....

 

Will I be making the trip next year I doubt it, there is more at Plasa to look at, it is closer, and the ticket is about the same price if I had to buy one.

 

If any committee member of NADJ is reading this (Mikeee, Nathan) it is not a 'dig', but an opinion and hopefully you will take some of the pointers onboard to have a better 2008.

If you want to take it as critisms, than please do, but it is constructive, and well meant.

 

If you want to employ me as a Non Executive Director just call. tongue out icon

I thought that it was ok but there was a sales feel to most of it. the seminars seemed more like sales pitches. It also seem very aimed a Digital DJ's. I was impressed that Cookies were there (Store close to me) simply because i knew them (i know its a sad reason).

 

When i go shows i want to be wowed by the stuff not sold it they often had the money off today which again felt like a market more than a show. I am not sure but i went to a motorcycle show once and was never offered a bike to buy.

 

Getting there was a nightmare no signs at all thank goodness for Tom Tom (although it did get confused and tried to send me up a not entry road near the venue). i am not sure if anyone else had a go at the raffle £8 a strip and one person took 3 prizes which i though was a little unfair as it should be one prize per person.

 

The one thing about it was yes some might be showing off there power compaired to others but is that not what we want. Why buy a expensive one when a cheaper one will offer the same thing but for less. i have to agree about the ots i only found them by accident. one issue they had with regards to noise is the fact that they put noise things next to software companies so while the guys at pcdj were talking to me i could hardly hear a damned thing so i would say next time to put companies like this in a smaller room with less noise

Andy, you crack me up, had to go and change my underwear.

 

I haven't been on the committee for a year now.

 

I can't judge want it was like on the day as I wasn't there, but from the sparce accounts it was well attended and a damn good day out for DJ's, and you got a free meal, what else do you want!!

..playing all the hits for you...

....whether you may be....

 

Why can't I see what i going on???

I enjoyed it, although I thought it was a bit daft having more than one Seminar on at the same time.

 

It was good to put some faces to names, Marky Mark, Eskie, Danno13, of course some I had met before.

 

We missed the first "paid for" Seminar (basic audio) but managed the next two which were DMX lighting (more of a question and answer session really) and Advanced Audio, which was very informative and answered a few of my Audio questions.

 

I enjoyed the general ambiance of the show, and managed to have a good look at some of the lighting effects, blagged a Denon mug from Marky Mark. Met lots of people from all the forums I frequent.

 

My wife is amazed I only spent £25 on some spare Ultimax Horns (and that was a private deal, not from a vender at the show).

 

Looking for an impressive light effect, Have a look at the EVL Spirit. Great effect, saving up for one now.

 

Will I go again next year? maybe, would depend on what other shows might be on offer within a reasonable distance.

I thought the show was ok.

 

I got to do what I wanted, which was have a good play on the new Hard Drive Controllers, Denon, Numark and Cortex. (Result - picking up Denon tomorrow)

 

Met a few people.

 

Thought the Ultimax Horns are FANTASTIC and ordered a pair then and there.

 

True - a few of the disco shops did make it feel a bit like a market, and next time - please do a sound rota, so you can have a listen to all the sound systems one at a time rather than all trying to play at once.

 

But all in all - worth a fiver I think.

Well I am glad I was working now...

 

Maybe they will offer you your money back as a sign of goodwill and to show that they were not just out to make a buck from you and the vendors... Some how I don't see this happening even though NADJ proport to be there for the benefit of all DJs...

 

If they can't plan out a simple trade show and seminar correctly, what can they do for the DJ on a national scale????

 

I think some of your points make me feel I was correct in my earlier feelings about this organisation... Not truly for the DJ, not truly national, and jobs for the boys and for people who crave a title...

 

Shame, it could have been done so good as has been said felt like a market.. It should have been so much more... Why were the seminars charged for on top of entry fee would love to know how much exhibitors were also charged to be there????

 

For you Andy NADJ might stand for Never Again Do (that) Journey....

 

Interesting to see other comments pro or anti event... Will be interesting to see members who are members and officials of the NADJ try to reason the original posters feelings out....

I was surprised. The venue was very nice and once I heard that Bose were going to be there I was genuinely looking forward to hear the much hyped poles. £5 in seemed reasonable to me.

 

Gary was set up in what I would call "The big room" manning the Denon stall with Marcy Mark. That was very good. I had a play with the other HD contenders and bought my 2500 this morning having had the Talk form Gary...thanks!!

 

What surprised me was that the PA in that hall was a mere pair of 1 x15" on stands (didn't clock the actual cab, but very forgettable!!) However, Bose found the lowest ciling in the whole venue and put up two poles and four bass units to demo to everyone. In all fairness, they were un-remarkable. Nothing like what I expected, very disapointing and with HUGE footprints. Why didn't they put these in the main hall to try and demonstrate them?? I think I can guess from what I heard there myself..... £4 k worth and it wasnt very disco at all. really cant see why you guys are falling all over yourselves for them.

 

Ultimax had some new ideas which were good, particularly the new light stand to go over a speaker. Clever, simple idea.

 

I visited the rep from Pro Mobile and bought 5 back issues (£1 each) to judge the mag by. What a waste of a fiver and I will not be subscribing. very poor IMHO.

 

The main problem I saw was the lack of respect from some standholders to fellow exhibitors, especially when people were giving presentations. There would be bursts of sound for no real reason. Perhaps this could be looked at for next time. It's hard to control I guess.

 

On the whole, I would go again. It was a good effort, didn't light any candles for me, but I think people enjoyed it. I may have missed the point of it. It was only 25 mins from my house. I wouldn't have travelled as far as Harribo, but then, he did want to be near me I suppose. tongue out icon

 

Interestingly, I was not asked at any stage whether I would be interested in joining.....??

 

Perhaps I don't meet any of the NADJ's criteria? :hurt:

Who knows.....!!!

Each to there own, i thing its a decent read for when im sat doing nowt at work, kills an hour for a read

And in all fairness it would be alot better i agree, but it needs more submittions from the dj world like all us lot, perhaps something for the governing body to speak about, get dju in the mag for an update etc on a monthly basis, surely couldnt do anyharm and would certianly make good advertising for us all.

Good for the DJ, just not me.

To be honest I like the magazine, I think its a good read and is aimed at us mobile jocks and isnt just another one of those Dance DJ magazines.

As long as it stays purely dedicated to the mobile jock I will subscribe.

Ok, I'll take up the challenge and discuss the points raised here.

 

I drove the 400 mile round trip to attend, and thought it was quite badly organised, we brought our tickets in advance at £8 including the seminars.

 

£8 wasted in my opinion.

 

It was only a fiver on the door, and the seminars were not well adverrtised, and pooorly signposted, in fact I missed all of them, so wasted my money completely.

 

If you are referring to the sound and DMX seminars they were not run by NADJ but were useful for DJs and so the cost of the room was underwritten by NADJ in order to add some educational content to the show.

They were clearly signposted on the noticeboard at the entrance, which to be fair, was 12ft wide by 6ft tall.

 

The £5 on the door didn't include the seminars.

 

I had to return to my van after about an hour, and when I returned I was not asked any questions despite not having my lanyard on, so in theory it could have been my 'first' vist, and I would have got in FOC.

 

Once inside I even asked for another one, and was given on, so I could have gone outside to a waiting mate, and we could have both got in free, including the seminar that would be £16 saved.

 

Were you given another pre-registered badge as well as a lanyard? We will try harder next time to ensure that visitors can't 'get in by the back door'.

 

OK, the show, not too many exhibitors dispalying, but that was OK because it was two small room, and not much space for anything much.....which was lucky !

 

How many manufacturers of DJ equipment would you expect to attend that weren't represented? We will contact any suggestions about attending next year. To be fair the only way we could see to have had more exhibitors would be to have had more retailers and we thought two was enough.

 

I went tpo the show to see three or four things, Ots DJ, Denon, Bose and someone with some flightcases.

 

Denon were easy to find, but couldn't get on with the HD2500 !!, but did get on with Marky and Gary.

 

Bose were easy to finbd too, but a small 'stand' too, and no Mk2, but I knew that by speaking to Andy the rep last week.

 

Ots had one laptop on the end of someone else's table, with no signage at all, I had to ask an 'official', who asked another until we found Ots ! We missed the display, which started 15 minutes after the show opened, surely a little too quickly for most people to arrive, get a coffee, sign in, and get organised ?

 

I am pleased that everything you went to see was there. The timetable of manufacturers' presentations was on the NADJ web site to enable visitors to plan their trip to see what they wanted. The show was clearly advertised as starting at midday. I don't know that we could have done much more. A link to the show minisite would probably not have been allowed here.

 

We statyed a little longer, and met up with Mark from MixMash, a very nice bloke, with some serious kit, other exhibitors were more intrested in playing with thier own kit rathern than selling it.

 

We will take this up with the manufacturers if the general view is that their representatives were not providing the service required. They are, after all, there to sell on behalf of their employers.

 

I did think that most people wanted to be loluder than the next rather than selling thier wares, just showing it off.

 

Difficult one to judge but.... each exhibitor in the 'loud' room was given two time slots in rotation during the afternoon and, on the whole this was well respected by the other exhibitors. A DJ show without speakers playing etc. would be a non-event in my book, but each exhibitor pledged not to take part in a 'sound war' and I think this was respected.

 

Will I be making the trip next year I doubt it, there is more at Plasa to look at, it is closer, and the ticket is about the same price if I had to buy one.

 

Will PLASA have more DJ relevant exhibitors, do you think? I do hope we can persuade you to give it another try next year.

 

If any committee member of NADJ is reading this (Mikeee, Nathan) it is not a 'dig', but an opinion and hopefully you will take some of the pointers onboard to have a better 2008.

If you want to take it as critisms, than please do, but it is constructive, and well meant.

 

Mikee is not (and hasn't been for over a year) been a committee member of NADJ. I am now, though, and am grateful for your contribution and your attendance. All views (positive and negative) will be taken into account when fine tuning next years' event.

 

Now the NADJ AGM and Trade Show is becoming an established fixture in the calendar, DJ, manufacturer and distributor attendance will grow as long as we continue to take notice of what DJs want from the event.

 

If you would wish to pm me, I would be happy to chat to you more about your experience at the show.

I'm sorry, but I don't know your actual name so please let me know in your pm.

 

Regards

When i go shows i want to be wowed by the stuff not sold it they often had the money off today which again felt like a market more than a show. I am not sure but i went to a motorcycle show once and was never offered a bike to buy.

 

I have yet to hear of a manufacturer in any industry who attends a show for anything other than marketing/sales reasons. Nothing will change with this. What would you expect, for example, a presentation about OtsDJ to do apart from tell you why you might want to buy Ots DJ?

 

Getting there was a nightmare no signs at all thank goodness for Tom Tom (although it did get confused and tried to send me up a not entry road near the venue). i am not sure if anyone else had a go at the raffle £8 a strip and one person took 3 prizes which i though was a little unfair as it should be one prize per person.

 

The National Motorcycle Museum is marked on road signposts and even some maps. It actually has its own turning off the roundabout on the junction above the M42 the entrance marked by a 30ft wide sign at its entrance, I fail to see how it could be easier to find.

 

The one thing about it was yes some might be showing off there power compaired to others but is that not what we want. Why buy a expensive one when a cheaper one will offer the same thing but for less. i have to agree about the ots i only found them by accident. one issue they had with regards to noise is the fact that they put noise things next to software companies so while the guys at pcdj were talking to me i could hardly hear a damned thing so i would say next time to put companies like this in a smaller room with less noise

 

Point taken, we will take this into account when planning next year's event.

That is a little unfair to make such a judgemental post when you didn't attend.

The retailer's exhibits (there were only two) played a valuable part in allowing DJs to see a wider range of products and their sales were high so I guess visitors were glad they were there.

 

The rotas went to time plan and the AGM did too. The organisation you describe is an association of members and, as such, all work together for their benefit. The committee is only elected to carry out the administration of the association on the members' behalf. As it is not a profit making organisation, it is not in competition with any other organisation for DJs, it simpy compliments them.

 

The overwhelming response to the show has been very good indeed, however of course the OPs points will be taken into account when planning next year's event.

 

What surprised me was that the PA in that hall was a mere pair of 1 x15" on stands (didn't clock the actual cab, but very forgettable!!)

 

A pair of 15" full-range Shermann cabs with the amp used were more than enough to provide PA services in a room set for 150 people.

 

I visited the rep from Pro Mobile and bought 5 back issues (£1 each) to judge the mag by. What a waste of a fiver and I will not be subscribing. very poor IMHO.

 

That is a shame, but I am sure Eddie, who runs Pro Mobile, will be interested to hear your comments and suggestions for how it could improve.

 

The main problem I saw was the lack of respect from some standholders to fellow exhibitors, especially when people were giving presentations. There would be bursts of sound for no real reason. Perhaps this could be looked at for next time. It's hard to control I guess.

 

On the whole, I would go again. It was a good effort, didn't light any candles for me, but I think people enjoyed it. I may have missed the point of it. It was only 25 mins from my house. I wouldn't have travelled as far as Harribo, but then, he did want to be near me I suppose. tongue out icon

 

Good, we hope to see you next year. With the comments and suggestions of all we will continue to improve it. Remember the main reason for the event is that it is the NADJ AGM.

 

Interestingly, I was not asked at any stage whether I would be interested in joining.....??

 

Perhaps I don't meet any of the NADJ's criteria? :hurt:

Who knows.....!!!

 

I would expect if you had been asked to join NADJ (there was a desk to join if you wanted to) would have been described by some as NADJ using any excuse to 'sell' membership. Sometimes we can't win, we understand that. However, if you wish to join, I am sure I can help.

Andy,

 

You need to come to DJ show North. Thats a good show and well organised. There is lots of free goodies to take away, there is some tasty women working on the various stands and outside is a live PA (NRG last year) and the hot dogs and burgers from the mobile caravan type cafe thing are well tasty. Ask Paul (high fidelity) he ate 2 of each.

So why so long to get a return link from the NADJ site to one of the biggest and best DJ forums in the UK???

 

And why is it that a number of members who I presume to be NADJ commitee members only surface for threads like this and not join in the general debate on other threads concurning DJs on this site????

 

And Why do you always want to conduct replies through PMs and not via the forum????

 

And how about giving Andy his money back???

 

And only two retailers there I can go to Wolverhampton, walsall or Birmingham and see five or six retailers and it wont cost me a fiver.....

And why is it that a number of members who I presume to be NADJ commitee members only surface for threads like this and not join in the general debate on other threads concurning DJs on this site????

 

And Why do you always want to conduct replies through PMs and not via the forum????

 

And how about giving Andy his money back???

 

And only two retailers there I can go to Wolverhampton, walsall or Birmingham and see five or six retailers and it wont cost me a fiver.....

I post when I have something to say- not just for the sake of it, and certainly not, when I have nothing constructive to add to a topic, or about something, that I have no knowledge of.

Regarding PMs, I sent you one because you seemed to be having trouble understanding what you were being tolld, and so that I could give you a link to the NADJ sute- which is not allowed on this forum.

Regarding the situation with Andy, this has already been resolved, but frankly don't really understand what it has to do with you.

Finally- of course there were only two retailers at the show- nothing else at all - despite the couple of posts on here which were less than positive, but mainly constructive, the overall response across the forums has been very positive, we have had a satisfactory result in increasing membership, and I have made good progress in gathering interest towards starting a Midlands Branch.

Rest assured that NADJ will be fully represented at both DJ Show North, and also at the BPM Show, we ALWAYS fully support any effort by anyone to improve the lot of the DJ.

 

does that Include The MU, Chris Ponton, and Dan Dukes????

 

We have been focusing on the show I will very soon place a link on the NADJ website

 

I would also just like to thank everybody for turning up.

 

Kind Regards

Wow what a naff organisation if they cant put on a show and provide a link all at the same time.... We as DJs do more than one task at a time...

 

And not everyone did turn up and those who did generally on here did not seem impressed and what about answering my other questions????

Um, some interesting posts, most of which are totally unbelievable. What were you expecting PLASA??? - think again. You are saying this is the best forum in the UK, all professional DJ's, but your posting like £50 amatuers, what gives guy's??

If you think trying to put a show together is easy, try it, but before you do ask the like of Paul (DJ Show North), The organisers of the new BPM show, Phil who ran one the other week in Lancaster, SEDA, Clive (CRS1) at Lacey Green and of course, our very own Gary who ran the DJU show the other year. These guys have a major hurdle to over come - Manufactures.

Most don't / didn't believe doing shows in the UK are of any benefit because DJ's in the UK are not positive and for the best part waste manufactures time with inane questions that reading the instructions would have answered.

Now I wonder why Clarion events moved PLASA away from the DJ :ads: :ads: :ads:

 

I think I'll stop now before I rip someones throat out and leave their carcas for the vultures.

..playing all the hits for you...

....whether you may be....

 

Why can't I see what i going on???

Manufactures.

Good point Mikeee. It would be interesting to see some figues on how many DJ`s that attended the show on Sunday actually went and ordered some kit on Monday morning.

 

I think am correct in saying Kingy has ordered HD2500 on the back of seeing it on Sunday.

5 European cups and 18 leagues, that`s what we call history.
