Guest Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 I wasn't so pleased when you danced really close to the stage, and did one of your megaspins, whirling round thirty times like a top, and your hair, all three foot of it, used to whip bucketfulls of sweat all over the record decks. Ooooh Behave!!! You loved it Andy. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Matt Male Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Mr M's???? You are kidding n'est pas? The bloody place should have been barricaded up with everyone in it. Mr M's - The place that gave birth to the oldies scene and closed so many ears to hearing new sounds. This is a revelation to me. I hadn't thought of this before but it's so true. I'm one of those people who probably spent 80% of my time in M's and also pretty much only went to Oldies nighters in the last year. In my defence most of the stuff i heard in Mr M's in 1980 was 'new to my ears' since i hadn't been around long anyway, but it looks like i inadvertantly contributed to the birth of the oldies scene. I feel like that character in 'A Sound of Thunder' who steps on a butterfly and changes the course of history. I'm truly sorry... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest rachel Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Glad to see this thread has got back on track after this afternoon but feel a reminder is necessary - have asked a couple of times for members to stop the wind ups, games, personal abuse etc but am still wasting time dealing with such posts this thread is the same as any other thread and deliberate attempts etc to damage it will be treated the same as per any other thread Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest rachel Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Additionally, a reminder that if you want to discuss concerns, moderation, etc, to do it in the Feedback forum - - NOT in the thread concerned.

Neil Rushton Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Have to agree with you. Couldn't understand why they felt the need to make them so tough. When I was told 'Foosteps' was going to be remixed I was expecting something much more Soulful. Especially from a label like Su Su. Great oppurtunity missed I'm afaid. On suSU - not Su Su. If you didn't like the remixes I respect your view, but I think the K-Klass remix is very Souful and I am proud of it. The original song is faithfully followed and the new strings and keyboards nicely complement the original but update it. The Soulful House crowd rejected it because it was not tough enough. The Axwell remix of "High Energy" is not Soulful but is a real winner which again I am very happy to be associated with - if Concept had spent some money on marketing it would have been a huge hit.

Guest Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 I guarantee it is not Joanne! Andy. You are simply forgetting that that is what she looked like in 1972.

He looked even better than this when his hair was shorter, (and he was in gym kit), about four years before this pic, his wedding pic, was taken.
