    6th Feb Sara White

    After the last event and how everyone was raving about it on here I’ve decide to pop along and have a little look, I think its going to be a blues night. I had a few people tell me the date so I’ve marked it my phones diary as this coming Friday, but I didn’t put down the address. I was just wondering if someone knows the address as well as the start and finish times or even a webpage where I can get it. Thank you.

    The other thing is I was just wondering is how many others on here will be going?

    Bearing in mind the fact that we shouldn't really use the forum to advertise events I've PM'd you with some details. Hopefully see you there

    I think as KPS had asked and he has nothing to do with the event it would have been alright to have added a weblink

    Unfortunately it is easy to abuse the forum rules. I would not like to have to decide where the boundaries should be.

    In this case the original poster could have sought this info in a PM, or by doing a web search:
    http://www.dogpile.co.uk/dogpileuk/w...=uk-only_oando

    This would have returned the sought info in the top 4 hits. As a bonus it would have shown the UK-jive site which has a large list of MJ organisations and events. www.modernjive.com also has a massive list. Major kudos to the sites that provide events listings, like www.lyndaslist.com for the SE . It involves more and more work as MJ expands.

    A mean-minded moderator might have thought posting here unecessary.

    OTOH the generousity and open mindness of Franck's forum is one of the reasons for its massive popularity.

    UK-Jive and Modernjive are the site I use myself for info - kps good ones to bookmark.

    As to who is going where we have the regular weekly thread for that, in this case http://www.cerocscotland.com/forum/s...727#post530727. The even in question already merits a mention on this thread.

    What can I say - as I get older I find myself erring on the side of caution more often, especially since I used to be part of Sara's team.

    I have no problem with kps asking the question and I have enjoyed every Jivenites event that I have been to.


    I am just interested in how the MJ scene works, and how it could be made to work better. How the word is spread is a big part of those considerations.

    Thank you all for replying and to all those that also PM’ed me, I’m still fairly new on here and didn’t realise that it seems you can’t post about other events or is it just non ceroc events, I’m still a little confused about that. Anyway thanks again and those website look very useful and are about to be book marked.

    Ceroc is a franchise organisation. Every franchise is a separate business. Franck runs the Ceroc Scotland franchise. It is used by people from all over the world.

    It seems a fair guess that Franck would not be happy if his Scottish competitors advertised their events for free on a forum he was running.

    Obviously if someone has bought the Ceroc franchise for XXX they are not going to be happy if their competition gets free advertising from someone supposedly on the same side. I do not know the contractual relations on franchises, but it is a fair guess that there are conditions in which the agreement could be rescinded. Promoting the competition might well be considered grounds.

    I think we are fortunate to have a tolerant "fair use" policy in effect.

    these rules have been chewed over in some length
    as i understand it anyone can post anything about any dance related event
    so long as they are not directly involved with the event or their organisers
    if a question is asked then the organisers are allowed to respond directly

    in this case kps was pmed with the info which obviously answers the question but as i understand the rules it could have been answered openly

    by the way if last week at sara whites was anythin to go by wooohooooo lol
