Let's not take ourslves too seriously here.

Sorry Debster but based on the evidence of the few times non-Jive judges have been let loose, I think you may not be entirely correct.

Why should a modern jiver not be competent to judge Ballroom but a Ballroom judge be competent to judge Modern Jive ..... have you ever seen the Ballroom version of Modern Jive .... personaly I thought it was of similar comic proportions to the Marx Brothers ... its a very different beast .. and one which I'm obviously ill placed to judge. So .... would be reticent to compete in a competition with judges who didn't know the Modern Jive dance style.

Fair comment?
