Looking forward to this, I have to say. Going to Field Day too

IndustryStandard Pretty sure one of the Alfresco lot lost their house due to debts.

Incredible.

Smallman1 field day is central london

I shall be at that one though, cracking line up

    RichM field day is central london

    Did you really expect a response aligned to your question Rich?!

    Please accept my apologies IN TRYING TO BE HELPFUL.

    Anyone else out at sub club to see Uncle John this evening?

      Unfortuantely not - I actually have spare tickets if you (or anyone) knows someone in need?

      Theyre second release so £20

      Gutted but family commitments have curtailed my fun

      Wally Anyone else out at sub club to see Uncle John this evening?

      I’m not Wal.

      Hope that helps.

        Bumped into Uncle John at the hotel I’m at. He was absolutely thrilled to have a selfie taken with me.

          Wally did you tell him that JC is much better than the old Bedrock message board ?

          Uncle John and Wal standing waiting on the lift in the hotel reception, 4am, John wanting his bed and Wally chewing his own eyebrows…

          “You dabble much in the old futures and options markets, john? I’m all in, you can share all of my knowledge on jaded clubbers. Do you think Flares could kill someone? Are you an alias on JC? It’s top banter! Dermo left for 3 years then came back and…”
          “I’ll just take the stairs, mate, enjoy the rest of your night!”

            Digweed’s Helsinki gig is now December 1st. And a Friday. I need to take a day off from work for that to work for me, otherwise I will pull a Benson.

            I’ve also decided that I want to see Gerd tomorrow. This was awesome.

              Homegrove probably my brother’s all time fave DJ. He’s seen him over 10 times at various clubs/festivals over the years

              Love this by him.

              Aaannddd just got back to Leeds so can mooch about feeling sorry for myself with a partial hangover.

              Had a grand time of it. Really liked the sub club. Tiny place but a cracking sound system, good crowd and cracking atmosphere. Can’t ask for more than that really. Nice to put a place to a name.

              Went to see Four candles at the pre-party and he was decent. He rinsed it out in the club for the first 90 mins which was good but John came on and took it right back down and started again from scratch. Was a bit odd tbh. Diggers coming on at 00:30 and the club shuts at 4 so you’d think he’d rinse it out for a bit and then bring it down towards the end. Seemed to kill the vibe tbh - guessing someone should have had a word with FC to chill out or put him on last. Decent set from Digweed but not his best. For the first two hours he’d build it up through all the usual gears to some sort of plodding robot techno style tracks as the peak, letting them go on far too long before bringing it back down a bit, letting some emotion and atmosphere back into the tracks and building higher next time - nothing really stood out tbh - There was a soul-less plodding techno version of Compass Error played out that had me scratching my head - like what is the point of taking one of the most euphoric blasting tracks ever produced and making a plodder out of it (Guessing it’s Guy J remix lol) - He starting bringing the hammer down for the last 90 mins though which was much better. Worth the trip for sure. 🙂

                Wally Better review than Ed’s one liner on Printworks last day.

                Dixon, Peggy Gou and Bicep absolutely smashed it!

                5 days later

                Blue Amazon playing in Leeds for a tenner in July. Might wander down. 🙂

                Just saw A Winged Victory for the Sullen at Barbican. They were excellent as expected, but had no idea who they were - turns out the main guy is an old fat Michael Moore lookalike with a vague shit red MAGA-esque baseball cap on, who turned out to be a right mardy old cunt.

                Day jobby as well.

                Have tickets for The Open on Sunday but reckon I could shift them

                  Mad_Cyril I’m hoping if I do get my ass in gear…i really hope he plays that Def Style kinda stuff. Having said that his recent output has been brilliant with the remixes and Red Zone Comps.

                  Going to see Leftfield on Thursday night.

                  Which is nice.

                    Smallman1 gutted to miss that as really wanted to see them at steelyard. Last time I was there it was my work Xmas party!

                    Although not too gutted as am in Mexico, so not all bad

                    For the Glasnost crew, they are playing at The Park on the Saturday night. BOSH

                    Some decent nights here locally. Plus Goldie playing again in a couple of months. Which is nice

                    • Dan replied to this.

                      More of a Hot Choccy fan personally.

                      I’ll send myself an invite.

                      Dan Faith have David Morales on in July…. Tempted.

                      I wouldn’t be too tempted. Depends if you get deep down Dave or string vest hand bag fag Dave. I’ve seen him a few times and on one occasion the latter happened and it was fucking horrific.
                      Place was full of Edwand types mincing round too. Exited sharpish 👎
