Welcome to the interactive UK Scene with your friendly neighbourhood Saz.
Once again we close the voting and the results are in. This year there are a few surprises with the most notable being Spud’s further decline down the rankings as well as Doug Williams being surpassed and a new number 1 has been crowned.
Remember that the TWO Top 50 is not a measure of ability, but popularity, the people within that 50 have a certain something that sticks in the mind of the voter.
What we do care about in all aspects of the UK Scene is your opinion, especially the paying punter, so if you have a say you are more than welcome to express it, whether it is a popular opinion or not.

And Finally…
I’ve been working with a great bunch of guys recently and some great rosters. I’m loving the way some companies are developing and I’ve had the opportunity to work with a varied amount of people.
All this means is that the fans are getting better shows and that can only be a good thing!
Take care,
Saz
