Hi Eliot

Thanks for the offer, again .... as I now recall. Perhaps its best 
that this is started on a dedicated dancecult website 
(dancecult.net). If you're willing to help out with setting up an 
appropriate web form for additions, then that would be very helpful, 
as i have no skills there.

It may not be totally necessary that all refs are 100% uniform in 
style - so long as all basic information is there.

We have a domain name (dancecult.net) - if you or anyone else has 
recommendations on a good cheap web hoster that would be helpful.
