Hello Rutger,

With a name like that you could be in ABBA!!
I would like to go the 21st Dec but (am I dippy?!) I am not too confident on the tubes getting from Liverpool St to Shepherds Bush. I wouldn't want to get lost!!! Have you gotta contact E-mail for me and I can chat about further please?
If we emt up-think the concert is 7.30pm-could we go for a drink after maybe to make an evening of it?
I need to be sure of getting there first though!! Help. Would love to boogie to the sound of ABBA again.
Look forward to a reply (you may E-mail me [email protected])

Thanks,
Emma

Hi Stacy!

Glad you enjoyed the Brentwood Centre.
Do you know of any other 'ABBA' events coming up? I know Bjorn Again aeon at The Shepherd's Bush Empire Dec 18th 19th 20th & 21st. I would like to go but haven't got anybody togo with (boo hoo!), my friends aren't as bothered or as 'into' ABBA as I am!! Would you be interested atall? Where do you live? Have you got an E-mail or mobile number for a text message and maybe we could sort something out.
I am a member of the Official ABBA Fan Club based in The Netherlands. They have an ABBA Day every April.. Have never been to it but am thinking of going in 2003. Are you interested in that?!?! There are people from all over the world apparantly dressed up and they take along ABBA items to sell or swap and there is a ABBA disco in the evening. Sounds good.
Let me know.

Emma

Hi Emma, I was also @ Brentwood on Friday, BA was great (took my Mum & Nan! both loved it!), I also saw Abbagirls a couple of weeks ago, it was out doors @ the Brentwood Centre, the rain was horrendous. But I would say vocally Abbagirls are real brill, like listening to the real Abba. But really enjoyed both shows.
Love & glitter Stacy xx

Well done girls,I've now seen your show twice, last night @ Great Hadham Golf Club, I was also @ The Connought Rooms in London (The BBC Childline event). You do have a great show girls.
Last night was probably one of he most entertaining nights out we have had, a complete act, humour, costumes, voices all amazing. I would recommend your show without any hesitation. Well done to all involved.

I am surprised that my comments made on 15th November have stirred up so much interest. I have since been contacted directly by Bill Lincoln and replied accordingly. Finally for the record and to put the matter to bed once and for all.

I have no flag to wave or axe to grind with either Abbagirls or Abbababes. I have booked Abbababes on occasions and Colin will confirm that I am currently in negotiation with one of my clients to book Abbagirls so no problem there! My reply was to a statement that Abbababes was a local pub act which is simply not true.

I do feel that Bill Lincoln or anybody else is perfectly entitled to have their say but I also feel that displaying this message, certainly in the way it came across, did nothing but undermine the ability of Abbababes which I think unfair.

Who is the best? I would say: BA 1st, Voulez Vouz 2nd, Abbagirls 3rd, Abba gold 4th. Ive seen about 20 bands!

I'm a true Abba fan, I go to Sweden, for the Abba get-to-gether!Every year I attend Pontins Abba week end at Hemsby.
Bjorn Again are No. 1. But I and many friends would put Abbagirls at No 2. This year at Hemsby's Abba weekend The Abbagirls stormed the night, way ahead of all the full bands. My friend saw the abbababes in Ipswich recently, and said they are OK, but not in the same class as Abbagirls or BA or many of the other top tributes.
So Brian you obviously do not know what you are talking about! and you claim to book acts and you are a prominent booker! I dont think so.

With reference to Brian Russells comments. I wrote the message on the 21st October. I have seen both acts, and a lot more full abba bands. Believe me Abbagirls are pure class.
Brian if you are an agent? you should really listen to acts. How can you book acts with out hearing them? It does not say much for your agency!
With reference to Abbagirls leaving messages on their message board, I would hardly think they are worried about another act? The Abbagirls are with out any doubt one of the UK's class tribute shows.
