Having just been paid & having recieved expenses I've just been on an online spree- Dreamcast Keyboard & vibration pack, Space Channel 5 & Dead or Alive. The question is, do I fork out £55 tommorow for a strobe and red filter for a mate's coming home party? Vote now... |

Why the hell not |

no, pay someone a tenner to stand by the light switch all night flicking it on and off. Then buy £45's worth of drink and drugs and get hammered. |

One of the reasons I'm tempted to do it is that I already have all my drinks for the weekend sorted: 2 half bottles of vodka, 1 litre of Gin & a bottle of white wine. So I won't be spending money on that... |

Get the strobe, make sure it will not affect anyone first tho. Last time I was doing a set one guy couldnt come into the main room cuz a strobe was blasting behind me and he could fit from it. Get a bigass bag of skunk too man. }:) |

..seriously though,would you use them often? If so,then yes. |
||||||||

I would use it in my room at home for a laugh (we already use a UV bulb in the hall from time to time). But it's not like I DJ regularly or anything. I'm tempted to get a £30 one, but for I can't help feel it won't be anywhere near as good. If I had it I'm sure I'd take it to more parties etc. it wouldn't be a one off thing. |

If you have nothing else to spend the cash on get it. I'd play with one of those for hours. ^-^ *pawpaws at pretty lights as he swishes his tail* |

I was going to get 2 cheap ones and make yellow and red filters for them then make my own "brain machine". |

When I was doing that set a load of e heads where dancing around with those torch goggles on. I wasnt as popular as the live garage DJ and MC there tho. ^-^ They kicked. :) |

I've just bought a couple of pairs of nunchukus.... a training pair and a wooden pair..... O MY GOD I CAN'T WAIT TO GET HOME AND TRY MY LAU GAR TECHNIQUES WITH THEM!!! |
||||||||

|

Ahhh the days of pissing those first few pay checks away!!! I remember them well! £55 for a strobe light! You must be kidding!!! Bollocks to buying one of them! I'd be saving the money towards buying myself a descent games console instead of flushing money down the drain on Dreamcast accessories! ;) |

dreamcast rules :) but ours doesn't work anymore. i think moving shocked it too much. |

I remember a Lau gar bloke I knew saying nunchukas were a core weapon of the lau gar syllabus, what I other weapons do you use? In Dragon style we used mainly pairs of butterfly swords and occasionally staffs. All: In the end I got two strobes and coloured filters. We completely blocked out the light in one of the rooms and had a mad underground rave style room. Neeta: DC is Great, I was playing Soul Calibur at the weekend and have now completely unlocked everything. All I have to do now is 3 more missions and it's all over :( |

Well it's starts of with knives and staffs doing two man set patterns, then on to butterfly swords and chinese broadswords. They also use this huge fork thing that weighs a tonne!!! Looks like a devil weapon! LOL... I'm not supposed to learn how to use the nunchucks yet but it wont hurt to try... (Well... it does physically!!) :) It's still based mainly on close-quarter strikes and ground based mid-level attacks. alot of hand movements and of course; the 5 animals... These animals aren't in the same vain as Lei(tekken) stances but jsut incorporating them into the techniques. Go here: http://www.kuei-ling.8m.com/kung.html alot of cool info and links. |

I pity your house-mates ! I used to live with a Ju-Jitsu freak and he'd use us all as training dumbies. bastard. |

lol.... Don't worry. I mainly pratice with my fellow students and teacher (He's a postman by day!) :) |

Sounds cool. You need to be extra careful with nunchukas (and all flail/whip weapons!), our master had a scar on his neck from training with a chain whip... I've never had a problem with hitting myself with swords (if you mess it up it tends to only be a glancing blow), probably because I fenced for years before doing kung -fu. Mind you, our master once put a broadsword through his fore arm by accident when he was younger :( Have you ever seen a "Dragon heart pierce pole"? 5m long staff! I've never seen one in use (meant to be one of the hardest weapons to use well...). |

you should be able to find a strobe for a lot less money, and if i were you, i would spend more on a blacklight tube, since blacklight bulbs are, as far as i know, nothing more than regular bulbs painted purple. The tubes are very powerful and give the neatest effects, especially in combination with glow stars all over the ceiling =) |
||||||||

Yeah, I've noticed tubes are much better at giving out UV. I want a small one so that I would be able to see my phat boy dials and keys on my customised keyboard when it was dark. The only problem is that in a house only kitchens have tube sockets... I ended up getting 2 £15 strobes, the £50 one was *huge* easily bigger than those in most clubs. I was tempted, but it would be stupid in a room my size. |

I'll feel safe with you Ceri, should there be any ruffians at this DIV gig. BTW I sent u an email mate. |
||||||||

|
You can get tube sockets with a cord and plug so your tube is portable in a way. Costs a bit more but its a good investment. Anyway, have fun! |

Of course! I hadn't thought of that :0B |
