Purely Social / Meet Night?

By *J Q OP Man over a year ago

Hi all,

I am looking for some seasoned advice?

I am a DJ and have joined my local club, which is fantastic and a pleasure to attend and it gave me an idea...

My friend has a very nice pub venue in Sunderland with a private room and we were thinking of putting on a regular midweek Swing Social / Meet Night with a DJ (me) for swingers to come and meet in a social atmosphere and then go elsewhere to play... Advertised on sites such as this, so a closed community type announcement, so no snoopies type thing.

Obviously there would be a cover charge of about £3 each or a couple for a fiver type thing... I think this is reasonable?

What do you think, would it work ~ would you attend and try it if you had one local to you?

The fact there is no play facilities on site would that put you off?

Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Sean (DJ Cue)

It wouldn't stay snoopless for long.

i think socials are a good no pressure way of meeting likeminded people, not sure how midweek would fit in with people though, things like work and kids may restrict, it would for us

you will find that there are a few social events that do already go on and as they are social events, no playing so I could see it being a good idea. Personally, I don't think that I would go to an organised one local to me as if it is a regular thing word could get out and no one in my "regular" life knows that I swing. Last social I went to was in Cannock and I live near southampton...lol
