Guest Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 That was a disgrace and everyone involved should be ashamed. I suggest booking a venue in Coventry, where Russ can dj and we can send all those participants to attend. But were we expecting anything else ? Its early evening light comedy !!!

I am sorry - and no disrespect to the dancers - but I am ashamed of what I saw , and I am afraid that the scene has suffered a big loss of credibility because of this ..........

Young Brett Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Seriously. Does anyone think that was good for the scene? real question i dont think it was.... i know it was aimed at the wigan years but there was not alot on it about the scene today, and what records are played today, also what events are running since then and the new big events too. People have been given the impression that we still listen to the same stuff since the wigan days and that we still dress the same too. This is my own opinion.
