Pigboat, Raggaforce 1 and the Beeston Katz

Morning Duncs !!

There are many majestic goings on in the world of Katdom. It is indeed a wondrous place to dwell.
Hoping to see everyone around Christmas/New Year time.
Is Boxing Day happening at Sharon and Aussies this year?
And talking of officially licensed Beeston Kats gatherings, we branched out into the world of public entertainment recently.
We’re not business men, we’re a business, man!!
Piz’s mate Steph had her birthday party in a bar on the Caledonian Road last weekend. I will be putting up the flyer here as an official Katz relic as soon as I’ve sorted out my scanner.
The prestigious midnight slot went (of course) to the Beeston Katz.
There was a packed dance floor when I opened the set (under the name Beeston Katz) with Carmina Burana, better known as the theme from The Omen.
Much bemused looks exchanged on the floor and then, before we lost them, effortlessly into Ice Cubes “You Can Do It” A right riggy shakin piece of quality fucking hip hop. Next up? Pitman of course. Witness the Pitness motherfucker. Hits from the pits indeed.
Pizbot (or Pigboat thanks to predictive text error) took control with more beats and Raggaforce1 tied it up nicely with some characteristic darkness. A little bit too dark for some, the next dj’s elbowed right in and got him off the decks.
Fair’s fair though, we had had our allotted 30 minutes.
Special mention should go to the bloke on the dance floor with an NG9 BEESTON t-shirt and a big grin, he was well pleased with the Pitman representation. And another honourable mention to Sam Pink for his Flashdance moves on the floor.
It was indeed a quality night, which got me thinking…………..

I want to put on a Nottingham night in a bar or club down here in London.
Call in Nott’s Landing, have loads of London based Nott’s folk all having a proper midlands knees up to Pitman, Black Lace and KRS ONE.
Goose Fair mushy peas, wedges of Pork Pie and pork scratchings as bar snacks, projections of the left lion, Broad Marsh bus station, Cloughie and Barry Nobel's Astoria on one wall, vip invites sent to Sue Pollard, Alvin Stardust, Paul Smith and Torville and Dean. Little raffle during the night for a first class train ticket to Nott’s.

What do you think? Could take off; we could put any profits into a little party fund for Katz stag trips and the like.
Would have to be mandatory attendance for all Europe based Katz for the first one of course.
Any suggestions welcome in the comments box.
Isn’t this how Damon Dash started?
Next stop? World domination.
Y’get meh?
