Ok, that just officially sucks.

Hopefully Dirk will still attend

How so? Cancellations, even repeat ones happen all the time.

he was announced on the flyers at the first midlands show, many people have booked travel & accomodation to meet him, if he disrepects his fans by waiting till so late to cancel he shouldnt be invited back ever.
If SM did that for every guest that cancelled I dont think there'd be much choice to choose from.


I know Dwight, and have it on very good authority from someone who knows him even better that cancelling this late was very unfortunate and something that just couldnt be helped.

Don't forget that Dirk is living in England at the moment and this was also an opportunity for Dwight to come and visit Dirk as well considering how good friends they are.

So I'd imagine Dirk is as gutted as all of us.

Dirk only mentioned Dwight coming to England 10 days ago on UK TV so he was expecting him to.

I know alot of people are disappointed as I am sure Dwight is to, I have a 9yr old who is heartbroken Dwight can't come, but my 9yr old loves Dwight and respects Dwight and knows he must of had a very good reason to cancel. Dwight does respect [i][size=2]his fans please dont say he doesn't.  

We still have Dirk,

Jo

P.S Dear Teabelly83  I hope you are ok as I know from chatting to you how excited you were.  You still have Dirk he's worth it believe me and please believe Dwight is a top guy who didn't do this on purpose. My 9yr olds tears are flooding but he still cares and respects Dwight.

Hi I dont think Dirk will cancel as he is living in England at present.

If he was coming from the US with Dwight he may of done, but he is here living in the UK.

Just try not to scare him of every one with being mad at Dwight, that may put him off.

Anyway if SM get enough cigars together I'm sure Dirk will show up  :angry:

If Dirk does cancel he'll miss out on a cool gift from my 9yr old so come on positive vibes and believe and Dirk will be there.


thanks for that jod, altho im in2minds whether to travel all that way now for jst dirk. i woul;dnt mind meeting dreyfuss, but as u knw my main wants wee dirk AND dwight. as most on here. sadly i ffeel depressed now.

and yes i do understand about why he canceled. they always have a reason so as a fan i aint guna condem him, i jst feel disapointed. it would have been a cool event with the a team van, vet and both cast ther.e

so i dont knw whether to come now, i mean, i was looking at a hotel, plus train fare, food money, autos etc. i dont know now..mmmm..

I know Teabelly our house is gutted to,  You'll save some money on the Dwight stuff and maybe you could spend more on the Dirk stuff.  :P

Sure dealers will have some cool A-Team things to.

I'm so sorry you are disappointed,

It's always best to see guests while you know you can. Personally I've waited on a few that either have never come back, or unfortunately have slightly more finite reasons for never attending again.

Well that just sucks big time!

I am sure Dwight couldnt help it, but that does put a huge dent into the whole show, which was always really geared around the double act of Dirk and Dwight.

Showmasters, I hope you have one BIG rabbit ready to pull out of your hat, otherwise I sense a bleak future for future Midlands shows after this one!

Hey ive been a critic but even i would have to say that writing off Midlands as a show in the future because of shortcomings (percieved or otherwise) is a bit harsh.

The first Midlands show was amazing, maybe the answer is to only run one a year, who knows....people with more clout than i anyway  :WINCE:
