Dear Old Dudes,
We would let you hang out with us more if you had a modicum of decorum and didn’t get all horny all the time. Why can’t you be like this guy, a scholar and a gentleman that plays great old records we never heard and then cheerfully fucks off when he’s done.
I wish DJ Derek was my Uncle or something. He's awesome, great dj & a lovely bloke to boot.

Hey Squirby, a lot of people don't know what "modicum of decorum" is because a lot of people use plain ENGLISH! Screw off!

Holy shit thats DJ Derik! He is a legend, and plays in the westcountry in the south of England, playing incredible old school dub and reggea on the heaviest sound system ever. He just goes through his minidiscs, lights a spliff and talks in a pace-maker, jamaican accent over the top. God damn fucking worship this man!

Holy fuck, buy a dictionary. If you don't know what a modicum of decorum means, you probably don't have one. Fucking retards post on this shit. Where the fuck were you educated, Mario Land?

I saw DJ Derek playing at the Thekla and he was so polite.

'This would have been a nice to throwback to the old school DO's n DON'T's if it hadn't gotten all mean-spirited at the end.'
Yeah, that did get all mean spirited at the end. Fuck you vice. Fuck you.

DJ Derek is the (near) future.
He will most likely be spinning at St Pauls Carnival on the 7th of July.

I beleive I did this guy, back then he was hot... and/or I was drunk.
yes, he plays on minidiscs, and every single one is labelled. it's worth going to hear just to see how cool his record box looks filled with those things.
actually, worth a flight to bristol for...

My sister lives in Bristol where this dude is from. A few years back he sent me a photocopied flyer all it said was ...
"DJ Derek is selling his records"
Regretably I presumed he was some shitty wedding Dj and I was just passing up the chance to own a bunch of NOW albums. As it stands he was selling all his 45s having transfered them all to Mini DIsc.
Wait till the guy finds Serato those mini disks will be worth a fortune!

DJ Derek, absolute legend, comedy bastard, quality music, patois beast, skank on. Go see him in a field drinking cider
Looks like Gavin went into dictionary found "modicum" and "decorum" and decided that they were so awesome together that he would use the phrase more than Terry Riley used the note C.
Everything I find irritating about my dad and everything I wish he was are both summed up in this photo-caption combo.

i have friends who are into all that Big Chill stuff and i quite enjoyed it when i went once but...
Where the fuck did the idea that DJ Derek was any good come from. "Wow, a old white guy playing reggae! That's so cool." What are you, a fucking member of the BNP? There are hundreds of better black reggae DJs who don't even get a mention.
DJ Derek is a fucking novelty DJ who plays shit music. The End.
(If that's him, he does look quite cool though. he'd be a better model than a DJ).

When you ask this guy if he can play some Clash, he just smiled and ignored you and continued to play Chuck Berry and the Dean.
"That's DJ Derek if I'm not mistaken and any pensioner who blasts old ska and ragga with a spliff hanging from his mouth is Ok with me."
NICE!!
"Whats this gentleman using to dj with anyway? 8 tracks?"

ummm...does jerry not realize that the do's and don'ts are written by a 36 year old white man? not only that but he runs the magazine. why would anyone in their 30's not feel welcome? jerry must have a few years left till graduation.

They were obviously taking the piss out of that stupid letter you twat. Say what you want about "isms" when you look here it's pretty hard to see a pattern of bias.

It's not that Vice think any old fella is cool, in this case, they're absolutely right.
That's DJ Derek if I'm not mistaken and any pensioner who blasts old ska and ragga with a spliff hanging from his mouth is Ok with me.
The guy's a champ.

Looks like Gavin has been called "old" so many times that he's gone on an offensive against "old dudes" to deflect attention from the fact that so many people have called him old.

wow - vice thinks an old man is cool. wow.
hey vice, are there ANY uncool old men?
what about gavin? how is that bitch now?
