I'm worried (for you and the other patrons of your establishment) that you've got jukebox mixed up with some form of karaoke machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Used to go to a pub in town called The Dog House, it was the starter end of the crawl through town to the late clubs at the other end. Anyway, we'd listen to whatever other people were willing to pay 10p for. The box played the records in button order, A's before B's regardless of who selected a song when (so you could queue jump if you had a working knowledge of the alphabet and numbers).But just before we'd leave, as a little tradition, we'd pile our loose change in and punch, A1 A1 A1 A1 A1A1 was Soft Cell, Tainted Love, 5 times in a row, enjoy!

I think you were wasting your money. Back then the 'memory' would have been a raised mechanical switch which would be matched with a particular record in the rack. This would be reset after the record had played once and there was no mechanism for storing the number of times it had been selected. It would work alphabetically but if two people made the same selection it would play it once and both parties would assume that it was playing their own selection. You weren't to know this as you and your mates were laughing your way to the next pub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Stevo985 Posted October 25, 2015 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted October 25, 2015 Was in London this weekend for the NFL with 3 mates. We realised on the train down yesterday that our hotel was a 10 minute walk from Loftus road, so spur of the moment decided to go and watch QPR vs MK Dons. Enjoyable enough, but what cheered me up was the QPR fans. They were both deliberately and sometimes not deliberately hilarious. To be fair to them they seemed very aware of their situation and were well able to take the piss out of themselves. Favourite moments were when a guy got chucked out and they chanted "you lucky bastard, you're going home", and their utter disdain for Karl henry (their own player). So much so that when he got pulled up for a foul they were all chanting "off off off" and booed when he only got a yellow card He got subbed off to a round of sarcastic applause. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted October 25, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted October 25, 2015 Also, Leroy Fer being subbed on, and after what could have only been about 15 seconds a bloke behind us stood up and shouted "**** DO SOMETHING LEROY FER!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I was watching some rugby earlier and when the fly-half spent a while preparing himself to kick at goal someone in the stands shouted rather loudly 'GET ON WITH IT'.Monty Python references always raise a smile. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
