I read the piece earlier Greg. Very informative and about a subject I love :thumbsup:

Ditto Scott:thumbsup:

What are your travel and stop over plans mate? I might still go to this. I loved the whole set up and vibe of the last Street Sounds event and met Morgan and other seminal acts, producers and DJ's in person:king: A dream come true for me :cool:

I got screwed over on everything apart from the ticket to the event, but what the heck it's London isn't it, so no real surprises :D

I'm really looking forward to this and hoping it's as informal as the last event. Meeting Arthur Baker, Captain Rock, Newcleus, The B-Boys' Chuck Chillout and Donald D, Morgan, and a few other people was brilliant and a bit surreal as these guys were my heroes and the soundtrack of my youth and their music still sounds fresh today:king:

There's so many great acts on this one too though. What about Leroy Burgess of Aleem (Release Yourself and Get Loose - 2 of my electro faves) and well i'm looking forward to the whole thing, but the Mantronix stuff should be a great finish.

Should be down there just after 1pm, booked a nice pad near Euston station, so easy links to access a couple of record digging spots and straight down the Northern Line to Elephant & Castle for the show. I'll give you a bell when i'm down there Scott, see if you guys wanna meet up pre show. Might be worth getting over there unfashionably early again as Captain Rock was walking around the crowd chatting to us all personally at the last event and there was loads going on inside from the off :cool:

I'm starting to get excited now thinking about how good it's going to be :D:D:D
