Remember in vikings blog, "NOW THE COVER WHERE THEY SHOULDN'T HAVE BOTHERED" i expressed my hate for dance music. on our first gig at my old school we got replaced by, *drum roll* a disco. not the cheesy kind, the dance kind.

any thoughts guys? you guys ever been dumped gigs for rubbish things?

Yeah, Only last week. Its the second time at this venue so reckon he goes on the blacklist.
If you want to appeal to the 'chavs' then for christs sake don't book rock bands.
On the subject of Dance music, Cars driving around aimlessly, windows down ( even in the depths of winter) with Dance/house music blaring out.

WHY?

1. you can't dance in a car for F---k sake
and two If we liked your music, we would be sitting in the car with you

Now theres an idea for a sticker

you were dancing in a tree with no arms, solus? how did it hold you during the "twirls"?? (sorry-just a bit of "harmless" fun !!)

"marc bolan danced in a car , only once though" - hey, threefold-we've done the "legless in a tree" joke!! (that's gonna get me strung up by the t-rex fanatics!!) :-?

Marc Bolan as I recall danced from the "womb to the tomb" how ironic that this blog so many years later should answer the mystery of what really happened...well done everybody! As to tw#ts in cars with the window's wound down balring out dance music maybe they have those special controls that allow you to drive with just your hands and they ARE dancing like crazy but we just can't see thier feet? Or maybe they are just tw#ts?

Sorry completely forgot the reason for the blog; Yes I was once booked for a wedding many years ago and it was called off because the brides mother beat the groom around the head with a telephone receiver because he made a pass at her as she went out to her own daughters hen night, the reall damage however was done by the prospective bride who then ran him over with a Fiat punto breaking both his legs, talk about selfish I was looking forward to that gig!

blue slickers-and, of course, it just shows how some people can over-react!! :-)
we had one of those "tw*ts in cars" where i work a while back-reversed straight into a forty foot trailer parked about twenty feet behind him. smashed his rear windscreen and put a large dent in his boot subframe. cost him a large amount of money to fix. occasionally, the wyrd sisters do allow a certain amount of payback?? :-)))))

HAHA today was epic, the dj was called "Dj Jedi" and it was hilarious because as the name suggested, he attually looked like he lives with his mother. anyway, nobody danced or got up to even listen. instead everyone congregated to the schools guitar teacher who played a few numbers, he did alsorts, bob dylan, van morrison, all that kind of stuff and people came and watched him and left the dj in the middle of the allweather alone. i laughed so hard i think i ruptured a kidney.
