On the whole we do not see a lot of other rapper teams over the course of a year, with Thrales and Mabel's being the only other teams we see multiple times. I think we are therefore isolated in terms of the styles we see and the people we know. I think it would be good for us all to see a team we wouldn't normally get a chance to see, particularly female. I think we should use our day of dance as an opportunity to meet new teams rather than fall into the cycle of only associating with a select group. I also think it would be really good to support the rarity that is another Southern female rapper team. The only team that has specifically invited us to dance at their event is Sheffield Steel and they are too far away for just a day of dance. The others we volunteer ourselves to join in with. Thrales often support us and we do the same for them due to the close connections, we can also invite them to crawl with us any month (and we previously have). Martin has supported us and it would therefore be nice to one year invite Northgate to dance, however as our first event I would really like to invite a team we are not connected to. I know I wouldn't expect Ravens to be invited if I had been going along to Northgate crawls. I know Edwin supports us online but he supports all teams and all rapper. Northgate would be my second choice so if you still think it would be better, and people generally agree, I am not aversed to inviting them. Kx P.S. I don't think we should go for 2 teams as I think 3 teams on one tour is too much.
