I might research into that... But also someone said in here he's been making hard house. and also he may be back for summer enchanted. Ah well... either way's gotta be ok, if he's any good at what he's doing.

What happened to twisty fries? they used to come around every 6 months - year or so... but they haven't been back for bout 4 years if i remember correctly.

Grant Piro from Couch Potato was a wikkid host too

EDIT : Just looked it up on the net ... ' Eden Gaha & Scott McCrae '

Scott McCrae was from Paradise Beach or something I think ?

Nah, that's not him. I'm certain that they had a range of hosts. I must have had a crush on a different one.

Might have been the other guy ... i think even Ernie Dingo did it once !!

...the burgermeister at mcdonalds. now that was a quality burger! pity it was only here for a couple months.

This is the other guy listed as the Vidiot host ... apparantly he hosts ANIMAL HOSPITAL as well

Nah, I must be thinking of a different show. Did they have celebs on there tho... maybe THAT'S what I'm thinking of... When they competed..? And no, I don't think it was Ernie Dingo either

Nah Vidiot didn't have celebreties. Hrmm ... Double Dare maybe ? Amazing ? Block Busters ? Generation Gap ? I'm not sure !!!!!!!

This post has been edited by Phunkii on Jun 30 2005, 11:48 AM
