We really loved representing East London in front of a home crowd in the final of the 2012 Talent competition. The audience was fantastic, getting really into the spirit of things and cheering. We were even asked to autograph our promo CDs, which made us feel like true stars!
The event really made it hit home how important London 2012 is going to be to the local area. Most importantly we loved the spirit of it all and just the thought of London hosting the Games in 2012 fills us with pride.
We always love performing as a band and this event was no exception! We played our song 'London Time' which really got the crowd going. It is such an anthemic and catchy number that is always a crowd pleaser. Moreover it is the song that started us off in the competition, and has always been one of the best received songs and much loved by Freerun fans.
Our favourite audience member had to be an elderly gentlemen who was rocking his head and bouncing his foot with a big smile on his face throughout our songs. It was awesome to see such a reaction from him and many others in the audience.
People should vote for us because we often use our music to help out charities by playing free gigs to raise funds for those who are struggling. Winning the London 2012 competition would mean the world to us!
The 2012 Olympics will give London the chance to prove to the world what a fantastic city it is and how talented our athletes are. We have some great young athletes that are coming up through the ranks, such as the diver Tom Daley. We will see some brilliant new talent coming to the forefront over the next few years. It is quite an exciting prospect!
The Paralympic Games will also be a great opportunity to raise the profile of the many talented athletes, like Danny Crates, who no doubt inspire other individuals to realise that they can reach exceptional feats, regardless of their disability. We would absolutely cherish the chance to play at the Handover Ceremony this August.
