3m X 2m Star Cloth from Mr Concerts
Published 12/11/2007
 
SIMPLE ...........


DO NOT PURCHASE A STAR CLOTH FROM

MrConcerts from Wakefield West Yorkshire.

The write up on eBay was very good it boasted:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

White / Blue Twinkling 3m x 2m Star Cloth
_________________________________________

Professional back drop for stage with approx 300 white & blue lamps. spare lamps included.

Made from cotton and comes with a backing to cover all wires. No confusing or complicated controllers needed. The cloth contains twinkling lamps which twinkle when you switch on.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WE however did and were very disappointed!!!

The backing was two different colours

The lights were Christmas tree lights, the likes you see in Wilkinson stores priced at £5.99 per 100

Only 40 of the 300 lights actually twinkle.

The write up is mis-leading

At the end of the day it’s your call

ANOTHER FIRST!

The Black plastic came and went, CD's arrived , and were almost replaced by Mini Disc, But MP3 format saved the day and the CD disc lived on a little longer .....

UNTIL NOW

Welcome the Numark HDCD1.

The Numark HDCD1 is a rack-mountable dual CD player with built-in 80 gig hard drive. The HDCD1 can store an entire DJ collection for the ultimate in portability, organization, and convenience.

It has two jumbo displays with dedicated controls which allows easy navigation for quick creation of playlists of entire music sets. A keyboard connection facilitates searching, and songs and playlists can be searched by title, artist, album, or genre.

In layman's terms this is one hell of a piece of kit, a must for all serious DJ's

After a lengthy chat with Mr Garry Williams (Bumble B Roadshows) Gary asks the question " Just what are those front screens you use?

I Replied " what do you think they are "

Being a little confident I also added you will never guess, but he did spot on ..

They look like an aluminium frame, supporting a black PVC Banner,with reflective lettering.

well done Garry , your prize is in the post!!
