Yeh I totally agree Memphis, I think it was all to do with the price they were charging. I know the Blackpool guys wanted to put something on again and Im sure even we looked into it but what they were charging was far too much! The ticket prices would have been far too high for people to want to enter.
I am made up for Mario though. Really enjoyed his show case in 2006 and I also got to see him in the musical Jailhouse Rock, which he was awesome! He also was in Blackpool this year and did a lil spot.
Well done and good luck Mario!

Yes, Congratulations to Mario! And well wishes to all the competitors!


I was talking recently to the organizer of a Florida Ultimate Preliminary, which will be the first one to be held for 2009 (in October). Apparently, according to her at least, EPE has now capped its North American/current Ultimate Preliminary locations at 24. So, if any further prelims are opened up, they will most likely be in countries other than Canada and the USA. Of course....things could always change, but that seems to be the most recent information.

Still a hell of a lot though dont you think? Unless you have £2500 in your back pocket the tickets arent going to be cheap. I didnt mind paying the £40 each when the Ultimate was held in Blackpool in 2007 but I know some people said it was a rip off. I dont see how it was a rip off when the fee is so high, then there is the venue and equipment to sort out.
But you cant please everyone can you Rolling Eyes
