Well that was fun! Though, I seemed to miss Afx AND Gescom somehow :S I still prefered the Halloween and Neighbourhood gigs though-better music imo. However, this rave had a really nice crowd-alive and mental! Did any of you go? I know I saw a couple of people from these forums... |

mikep was on form and shitmat too grinning cat email me listentohummer@aol.com |

Oh right, so that's what happened. Kinda dissapointing really, my mates loved him when he played at the Neighbourhood and we were waiting for him in the rephlex room but that same other guy kept on going. |

yeah, awesome night. I was waiting around for aphex too, but he didn't show *tsk*. Remark and Shitmat were ace. The Bug wasn't bad either. Did you see leafcutter john and the crazy bra thing that he'd wired up? One thing's for sure: i've never been so glad to see a 24hour sainsburys! And yes, murray, you were right, i don't think i should have eaten that weird pasta thing in a can without heating it! it tasted so good at 5:45 this morning but now the thought of it makes me feel physically sick *eugh* :-/ |

Twas a good evening, much more of a social event than the past. Me, Jules nad Packman never usually socialize as much as we were doing that night. Excellent party, satyed in the Planet-µ room for the majority of it. Telica, that woman that was talking to Packman was really fuckin' weird, she was telling him that she loves him by the end of it. And i met some new friends, including insanely cool dreadlock girl (or 'Francis' as she is called). She's pictured below. Met a really cool girl called Annabella, she was excellent. All of the acts were great apart from Leafcutter John who i was dissapionted with, but it picked up immensley when Chevron came on. Mike P was excellent on both his DJ and live sets, shitmat was mind bendingly excellent. You have to love dancing to Gabba, it's such a great thing to dance to. Remarc was also very good, again immense stuff to dance to. Pictures will follow soon. |

good thing there aphex wasnt playing...cos im hiting my head into wall for an hour for each of his gigs i miss yeah, its damaged pretty bad by now... |
||||||||

|

yeah, i thought leafcutter john was a bit of a gimp. I gave up listening to him after about 15mins and went to the ai room instead. that woman was pretty funny, as was the one with long blonde hair that kept randomly hugging people. Pacman must have been stoopidly hot in that hat of his. You're right: he is a pretty rad raver. His mini-mosh was fun too (until he elbowed me really hard in the chest and i went flying. i have a really nasty bruise :( |
||||||||

You mean Annabella, she was the bollocks, she was so nice. Had a nice chat with her about different techniques on how to dance to gabba. Packman is the shit of a raver, he can rave with the best of them. I dont think he ment to elbow you, he's a kind caring bloke who wouldn't harm a fly. I pleaded with him not to start a mosh pit for shitmat as we would have been killed to bits. But he did start a little one up, bless him. Yeah he was baking in that hat, his hair was so fucked. And i totally agree with the Sainsburys, i wish i had eaten something healthy like fruit instead of Mcoys and a flake bar, i was paying for that on the train ride home i tell thee. |

By the way if anyone is/was wondering, what was written on Packman's shirt on the front was 'Capitolism is Death' and on the back it says 'Bob Dole says "Dance like your selling nails"' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i know he didn't mean it, bless him :) does anyone know who the guy was playing in the ai room at the end? i always see him wondering about at raves with a massive camera, but this is the first time i've seen him doing a set - who is he? |
||||||||

Rob Hall maybe? |

I dont post here very often at all but I though I'd give my opinions of the night. The U room was by far my favourite, due to what I thought was very similar music coming from the Ai room, but the rephlex room was good too, yet i missed astrobotnia so that annoyed me (bloody incredible lasers in there though). U-Ziq was my favourite act followed by Chevron (was right at the front next to Murray, so hopefully i got my hand in a couple of croud shots ;) ). It wasnt as good as The Coronet but still one hell of a night... By the way, if Murray posts his picture of some bloke with short black hair with his head in the bass for Chevron, thats my mate Dave. Still, was cool meeting/seeing some of you there. And I think i shall have to get that new U-Ziq album after the amazing amount of hype he was giving it. |

Were you the blonde guy that was standing next to me during µ-ziq's set? |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
What was that tit thing lol? Was it actually making those noises? The guy playing that set seemed stoned out of his mind! |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Were you the blonde guy that was standing next to me during µ-ziq's set? Yeah the one to your right - with the light brown hair who kept on requesting Swan Vesta. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
=oD Hey man how's it going? Your friend was insane putting his head right inside that amp for like 2 minutes. It was great. You were well alright from what i remeber. The majority of what µ-ziq was playing was off of Bilious Paths () and the rest was off of Lunatic Harness which i believe that you have already purchased =o) Nice meeting you mate |
||||||||
|

Will have to get that new one then, it was incredible live - Lunatic harness is arriving tomorrow which is nice. Yea was cool meeting you though mate, might see you at the next big event :). |

Oh and one more thing - who was that DJ at the Rephlex room for the last two hours, the one with the woman with glow sticks at the front... anyone know? He knew perfectly how to clear out a room; an incredible first hour, then he starts playing odd Jazz DnB. Im at the front, look behind me and the room is cleared. Not the best set in the world. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I believe that was Grant Wilson Claridge |
||||||||
|
|

|

i though he came on first |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
btw who was the bloke wandering round with the snowboarding gear on? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah I saw him too! And was it me, or was Aphex Twin wondering around? And who was the guy I kept on meeting throughout the concert who I talked to outside about Aphex Twin's car and other stuff? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nah that wasnt him but it did look like him |
||||||||
|

aaaargh!!!! just got home this minute! what a night! not seeing aphex was a bit poo but he was supposed to be palyin the same time as shitmat so i'm glad i got to RAVE to the whole of chevron and shitmat, those guys tore it up. chevvers playing all that speeded up cheese with hardcore at the end was excellent! |
||||||||
|

Oh right okay And I've seen Pacman loads of times now lol. I agree about the Rephlex thing-towards the end it got pretty awful. |

The guy playing in Ai room at the end was sheikh ahmed who runs absorb.org. The guy wandering around who looks like afx was tom the sound/mixing desk guy. I thought shitmat was shit, went on too long - too much comedy. |

Wicked night. I'd like to redo it though cos I kept chopping and changing rooms and never really got into the groove cos I wanted to know who was on. Mike P was incredible. Shitmat was excellent. Remarc was awesome (though I felt a bit sorry for him standing about during Shitmat's set and trying to get into it). To be honest, I'm glad Aphex didn't play cos it would have just turned into an Aphex gig. Though I wish someone would have told me so I could have stopped wasting my time in the fucking Rephlex room. Was it me or was that room (aside from The Bug and the lazer on the ceiling) rubbish? Nice to meet you finally, GAz. Sorry I couldn't speak longer and with more clarity. I was stoned off my nut. Who was the guy with the guitar in the Ai room? Apparently, listening to fast music shortens your life expectancy because your heart tries to emulate the beat or something. So we're all buggered then. too much comedy Aww! Mate! Lighten the fuck up! |
