baggers44 Diggers played that “is this the real life” thing that never got released. Shame they never recorded it

What is this track you’re referring to?

      I’ve not been for years.

      How bad is security now? Makes sense as they’ve had deaths etc.

      Heard stories about bouncers wandering around the dance floor and booting out fucked people.

        Always on point as ever, Ed.

        Bit disappointed you didn’t ID Themes from Great Cities and Bohemian Rhapsody though.

          Security is tight going in as they had to make it so to get the license back from Islington Council.
          Never seen any security dogs or anything. That was a bit of a myth….

          As for bouncers kicking people for being fucked. Never, ever seen that. You’ve got more chance of being booted for having your phone out.

            hugopal It was this track which was a loop of Freddie Mercury singing “is is is is is this the real life……” - he played it a lot in 99 and at some point I collared him and asked him what it was and he said some kid sent it to him on a CD . The underlying melody was really familiar but I’ve forgotten the name now.

              delged It’s this really.

              Just back from seeing Bicep at the birthday this morning. Fabric, is much as it ever was.

                  apyssjw Any cop?

                  Guessing you were rolling through from sat night, rather than doing a fresh as a daisy Sunday AM turn up?

                      wrongun Bicep on form. Somebody on the Bicep discord server recorded the set on his phone, it’s barely listenable (and a gig in size) but here it is if you want a flavour

                      With two young kids I’m a creature of the day now. Had to be back for swimming lessons in the afternoon!

                          How did you manage to reach the age of being a father without yet knowing how to swim?!

                            Got in about half 2. No drama on the door. Pretty quiet inside as guessing the Saturday night crowd has dissipated. Lovely to have space to dance when Dix came on. Still prefer he was in room 1 but I suppose everyone wants the ‘low Dj boiler room vibe’ these days. Pretty decent set. Few weird prog tunes in the middle but last hour n half was solid.
                            The whole club was packed by 7. I went to get a drink when Dixon finished and someone switched the Techno button on. All three rooms.
                            I’ve tried with Techno, I really have. I’m just not cool enough for those kids.

                            Anyway, great to stop in for the birthday. Super chuffed with an afternoon with Mr Berkhahn. Off to Spain next week to escape this fucking rain.
