"To say that Groove Central were terrific wouldn’t nearly do your performance justice, you were just brilliant! Fantastic! Amazing! Having worked at MTV for 7 years the band were so important to me, I wanted something different from what everyone else has had…every person we spoke to on the night and afterwards has said how fantastic the band were".
