The guy was so fast and so incredible and what a nice guy and mentor.
One of the best dancers that I have ever ever seen.

Roger has always been so helpful during and after his lessons and always with a smile. An excellent nomination.Andy McGregor wrote:Is that Roger Chin in the crowd of fab dancers on the How To Jive video?

And, likewise, I first saw him dance and teach when he had current national titles and I was (and still am) a great admirer.
A definate Hall of Fame face.

I would have gladly polished his dancing shoes like an apprentice at LFC would clean Kevin Keegan's boots or even better, Kenny Dalglish's.
Honestly, I wish someone could have videoed his dancing at nOtre Dame. It was ELECTRIC and the video footage would be commercially viable.

JB was dancing in Brighton on Saturday at a charity dance. He came all the way from Bedford to DJ for petrol money and did a fab job. I took over the decks and gave him an hour off to go dancing and he really was having a ball out there. And we raised money for an ophanage in Niarobi too!! Maybe JB should have his own hall of fame entry?
