But if I couldn't meet them as a kid, I hoped to as an adult. Unfortunately the dream remained what it was... a dream. They did come close enough, featuring in a mid-80s international music show in Lagos, Nigeria put together by Silver Bird/Faze 2 promotions. However I wasn't living in Lagos then; I was almost 1000 kms away in the North! It's real sad to hear the tragic tale of a once promising youth band. It rankles all the more cos their kid rivals from America New Edition are still making money, while Britain has been really been unkind to its own! 734466@blogcritics.org Tue, 22 Jul 2008 11:42:44 EDT
