  • Fatboy Slim Big Beach Boutique Documentary

It featured on the vid for Emerald back in the day.

Smallman1 Not exactly hard, as the only competition was Fatboy Slim, and the Midfield General. Cut of Life, Dark & Long, Rez, we’ve got all of your favourites here kiddies.😂 That gig feels like the Sex Pistols Manchester gig, where many claimed to have been there, but not many were.

      I’m not sure there has ever been a worse big name DJ than Fatboy Slim. Total blagger

        Smallman1 There was a Tyrant night there the night before though. I remember the Friday night, a friend of mine took a photo of me doing a line of Bronson. After, she had it printed, it sat in an album o on the coffee table in her living room. I wonder if it is still there😂

          alistair Fatboy Slim was the sole reason Woodstock 99 went off the rails. It was all flowers and reefer until he showed up and dropped the needle on Praise You. Someone was immediately raped in an ambulance and the whole festival got burned down. That’s how bad he is.

              Smallman1 I was thinking of groove armada the year before. As you were. Carry on.

                LT42 That documentary is also very good. Bro culture on a disused airfield in 50 degree C heat. what could go wrong

                    benson a lot of fucked up American Emo’s going off there rocker after getting completely ripped off!

                      alistair Everybody Needs a 303 is fucking brilliant album - saw him at Reading in 98 and he was mustard. Absolute fucking shite at Glastonbury mind.

                          benson yeah its an ominous watch. Part of me wishes I was there full of bangers and on the factor 50. The doc only scratches the surface on the debauchery.

                              LT42 I was there, front and centre. Diggers was excellent - I was lost in the world on bangers after that. We’d parked the car at a station before and couldn’t get on a train to Brighton, but got on one from Hove - went straight to the front after walking down from there. On the way back, it was pandemonium at the station and we were off our chops, but some fella pulled up and said Taxi? We said how much to wherever and he said hopefully, £20? Done. Home by 1am.

                                Went to buy a paper the next day and saw the extent of it all - had no idea at the the time

                                Seen Fatboy Slim twice , both times in Ibiza. Had the place rocking each time. He’s just a novelty/party dj isn’t he….Good for an hour or two and gets the ladies dancing

                                That whole ‘Big beat’ thing. What an embarrassing time for all concerned. Fatboy Slim was basically a midlife crisis in a Hawaiian shirt. No wonder grant LOVES him.
