Oh hello you're back then.

Views on The Horror, anyone, somebody?
Steady on DTS... no-one said anything about the Wizard's sleeve being as wet as an otter's pocket.. oh, The Horror...
No agenda David....I just think it's unfair to assume that one side of the story is totally correct. I also think it unfortunate that one side of the partnership has decided to air their dirty washing in public, when the majority of the people who received the email probably don't really want to know the politics. Yes I am working for John at his new weekender, just like I did at eclpse in Skegness, and at Southport before that. I haven't been asked to DJ at any of the Escape weekenders to date. I wish Wes all the best in whatever he does next...I have no axe to grind there.
See this is what happens when we play nice....Jack sh1t going on now my lovelies.
So who would like to get into a verbal cut and thrust with rapier wit and counter lunge etc etc.
Shall I start?
Any takers?
Bunch of slack jawed pussies, the lot of you.
DTS XXX XXX The Horror, oh the horror. Any feedback on the horror yet?
Is it just me, or does DTS write like the masturbating Welsh flat-mate in Notting Hill?
Re: Jive Addiction - The Next Chapter
Personally I know 'em both, like 'em both. I am not sure what's happened to cause the breakdown - there are two very conflicting sides to what has happened, I am sure the truth is in amongst it all somewhere.. probably. How does this effect me? It doesn't. Why do I need to know the details? I don't.
What this does mean for me on a selfish level is now I can look forward to Jive Addiction events AND Jive Style events. That's more choice for me as a dancer and I wish them both the very best with their individual projects. Anything that expands the choice of quality freestyles and quality weekenders is something to look forward to.
Absolutely and my sentiments exactly.
Who gives a rats ass.
Ive found that taking sides always comes back and bites you on the ass eventually anyway. !!!
You told me you liked being bitten there
In lots of cases, the two restart their relationship, then it's uncomfortable for the one who's taken sides with one of them.
The voice of experience.
I think this applies to affairs of the heart. Where you want to stay friends with both you need to be careful to maintain neutrality. When couples reunite there's often a new honesty which includes spilling the beans about the rude things people said.
However, this is not an affair of the heart. It's a business relationship which has now ended in what seems like a messy fashion. There's a lot of talk about taking sides: I can't see how modern jive weekender customers can take sides. I doubt that any reasonable businessman would ask his customers to boycott the competition and stay home when there's a weekender they'd love to attend. That would put the businessman in danger of asking too much and spoiling the relationship. Although they might ask their friends out for dinner or to stay at their place for the weekend so they weren't available
There is a big difference between true friends and customers with whom you are friendly.
The only situation where you might "take sides" would be if there were clashing dates. We all know that clashing dates in the MJ market usually produces two losers and I don't believe that would happen. But, just for fun, let's imagine that there was a clashing weekender between John & Wes. All other things being equal, travelling time, quality of teachers, accommodation, etc, etc. Which one would you choose?

Having now been copied in on 'The Email', it does explain a few things. I'd originally been invited to DJ at Scarborough (nice and local for me) only to be informed some time later that 'all positions had been filled'Must admit I wasn't best pleased at the time but now can understand that things of greater magnitude were taking centre stage.
I can sympathise with Wes but my advise would have been, whatever the provocation, not to email out. In my 'formative' youth in the MJ business world I got into a fair few situations and a couple of times felt sufficiently sinned against to share with the common masses. HUGE mistake. The responses could be categorised as:
“Don't care” - and so just ignore what you say
"Two sides" - and assume that you did something equally bad
"Don't believe" - and think you did something even worse
"Offended" - that you would ever impugn their hero ... even though they may believe everything you've written.
I think the worst experience was having a friend who was in a position to fight my corner ... but the alternative was to just keep quiet and take the money ..... no guesses for the outcome
Isn't the difference here the fact that within a very short space of time, the partnership brought innovation, fun, and in many people's view, the best weekenders available. Producing a formula others try to emulate. Yes we'll learn of other businesses ending in acrimony in future, but few will have the same impact on the dance market.
I'd love to tell you where to go for free cake, but my hands are tied by the rules.
