    'it didn't go to the UK, same US winner as the junior mccants' The man is living the dream. Fair play to him.

    "Same here but I also think the personal insults were well out of order. Ironic from someone who seems to have had about as much involvement with northern soul in the media as anyone....their own avatar attesting to that fact. I would like to apologise for my outburst on here the other day. I was a bit pissed and was just trying to stick up for my mates. Me and Paul Sadot have been messaging each other and its now sorted. Anyway I'll be seeing the O'Grady boys tonight at Beat Boutique and believe you me i'll be giving them a jolly good ribbing...... " Fair enough, glad you both got it all sorted. The soul scene is too good for bearing grudges or ill feeling.

    I absoultely hated it as well but I also think the personal insults were out of order. Ironic from someone who seems to have had about as much involvement with northern soul in the media as anyone....their own avatar attesting to that fact.

    '2 arses together! What really makes me smile, is how we just had a thread where people (stunt dancers!) were banging on about how it takes years to learn to dance to Northern Soul Thats obviously not the reply Liam gave to the POG show when they asked him to teach them...15 seconds of fame became 15 secs of shame for the young mercinary of soul....dread to think where the young guns (or is it puns!) will pop up next.... After the 'Duffy' video, they advertised their night with "featuring the dancers from the Duffy video". What now..."featuring the dancers from the Paul O'Grady show'. They certainly are a cool bunch of guys!' As Gareth pointed out it is all relative. Some people might not think doing a musical about northern or being in northern soul pop promos is particularly cool either. The CH4 3 Min Wonder with Steve C in it was quite well put together imho as was the Moloko video (although set to one of the worst dirges in musical history). But this is because they were made by talented film-makers ect. Before you get annoyed i'm only speaking from the devil's advocate point of view, I think the POG thing was car crash tv as well. All i am saying is that it would seem very seldom if at all do we have worthwhile representation or input from the media, so why become embroiled with them in the first place?

    As for the credibility jibe. If the Northern Soul scene doesnt have credibilty, what does it have? 'Surely our scene attracts a certain type of individual. We seek out something thats a little differnt to the norm. We enjoy the fact that our scene and music is different to anything the majority of people we meet could ever understand. Being different, is seen by many as being better. Like the old mod ethic of moving onward and upward. this is what the Northern Soul scene does, without the oxygen of a fancy dress segement on a TV show. If Northern Soul was just a dance thing, we could go to our local gym and join a get fit club, or we could go to the local club and hop about to the radio 1 top twenty. But its more than that. Its important to many people that the exclusivity, and underground aspect of Northern Soul is kept strong. ' Absolutely. And if you claim to have a deep passion for the music, why undermine it's significance by becoming involved in this kind of farce. It's disappointing in the extreme. You have to question what the records actually do mean to these people? I shouldn't be having to say that as someone of 28 to people who have been involved in it for more years than i've been alive. Perhaps wanting to keep something as special as the soul scene to yourself and maintaining its reputation as an important underground culture dedicated to worshipping the best music ever made is insular, and wrong? Think i'd rather be wrong than propping up a class-c lightweight entertainment tool on teatime tv. In a wig no less. Having said all this we should maybe think about the fact that some of those involved may have been unaware of exactly the kind of representation they were going to get when agreeing to the show? Best way to avoid similar situations in the future: STAY CLEAR OF THE MEDIA, THEY ARE NOT YOUR FRIENDS.
