So soon?

Have a wedding to attend, but will try and drop in to catch up with G, if nothing else.

Re: R.I.P. MB.com

Not at all. Everybody's sad at what this place has become so why not just end it?

As I mentioned, all good things must come to an end, and it's better to end on a high than to go on in an embarrassing way. Why wouldn't you put something you cared about out of it's (our) misery?

Re: 4th ANNUAL COMMUNITY DANCE // SUN 4 MAR // HEARTICAL H

It's my brother-in-law's and mate's system. And it doesn't really have a name apart from V8 because it's the 8th version. I just provide the space and some tunes. We have a few different people play so there's a mix of roots (ska, rocksteady, reggae), blues, soul, hip-hop, rock, and also some techno...

Re: 4th ANNUAL COMMUNITY DANCE // SUN 4 MAR // HEARTICAL H

Nice work, fellas.

Couldn't make it this year because we had our own sound system happening in the lane behind our shop. However I did send my eldest down to check you guys, and he was suitably blown away.

Now 2 soundsystems at the festival, how many more til we can compete with Notting Hill? ;)

Half way through, and really enjoying it. I'm a fan of old films, too, so the references are making me smile. And "Where are all the films?" is something I regularly say to mrs roar while trawling through the tv guide looking for something that isn't a csi or reality show.
