    Not sure when the second room opens, but it's Mikey R until 10:00pm then Rocky until midnight with the main room continuing until 1:00am I think

    Mr Rosa won't be in attendance....Hell hasn't frozen over just yet.... The fabulous Garry Turner (Locoman) is doing the honours.

    Mike Rosa will be in attendance at Buckingham again (as a paying punter) to support the local dance community (of which I am a part) where I will be joining many of my students. I am also looking forward to Garys' set and I can always have nap during Daves zzzzzzz

    I did have to look twice at the dates of these posts, in case it was April 1st!

    Of course you're all heart... you run an independent venue 8 miles down the road and were prepared to DJ for nothing, and the reason for that would have been... umm.. let me think that one through for a bit..

    I love it when someone shows how much of a hypocrite they are and you been a paying punter put money in my pocket.. so who's having the last laugh?

    Not all of us are as afraid as you about competition! We SHARE students! If you took the trouble to go to that (WCS) venue 8 miles away, you will see Ceroc Smooth flyers out on my tables and hear me promote Ceroc Smooth Saturday night freestyles in my class, yes even though you were there! Consider it charity!

    You know as well as I that I was asked at short notice, I was asked if I could help thats all!

    Do you really think people are that stupid? You get far more out of trying to partner with CS than they get out of being involved with you because they have a much bigger database of dancers and their beginners days, busks and promos bring new people into the dance scene that you will try and benefit from..

    But maybe I've got that wrong.. this would be when you reveal to us all your program of busks, advertising and free beginners days that you are about to implement to bring people into your nights without having to rely on other organizer's in your area to provide them for you...

    Next time we have an event with Rocky and Mike on the decks at a single venue, I'm definitely going along.

    Sorry to disappoint you DB but us DJing at the same venue didn't happen, once I knew he was supposed to be DJing he got the boot - so he just turned up as a paying punter (and do no doubt to also hand flyers out to his events...)

    Clearly Ceroc could teach Mike a lot about the Party Whip variation

    Am I missing the plot here? Are you saying that you and the other organisers have created a demand but are not providing for it? Why would you do that?

    I advertise a little, busks Ive done a few. but mainly people find out about me through word of mouth, I offer a fun night out and they can learn to dance + lots of social dancing in a friendly atmoshere. I dont see personal recommendation on your list, maybe thats where we differ

    This is my day job as well as my passion and I think I work hard at my profession as an instructor - Iam proud that at this years WCS champs the only British winners were my students - as well as offer value for money. people see that, thats maybe why they support me!

    I dont think people are stupid at all. you on the other dont do yourself many favours!

    Yes, so few they've never been mentioned or featured anywhere!

    Don't make me laugh! Are you seriously suggesting that anyone who won anything at Weston was ONLY taught by you! Now that is stupid..

    Their ability I don't suppose has anything to do with what they might have learned from other people's classes maybe??

    Anna Lumsden, for example, could teach you how to dance - the idea that as a British Winner she's owes a debt of gratitude to you is ridiculous even by your standards...
