Oh Nina no

Amps I remember it being pretty dull. Not how I like my techno.

You could possibly argue he was like a cheesy Carola, as Ive seen him play in a similar way on occasion.

Amps in reality Mauro has no style. He has gone from trance to techno to tech house throughout his career. Richardo Ferarri made all his tunes, and he doesn’t seem to be able to get gigs outside of Ireland and Italy. He’s kinda like the Italian Seb Fontaine. They certainly seems to play the same kinda gigs these days.

Kells77 oh if this wasn’t a joke, then yes of course. Some amalgamation of Rob Hood, Moritz Von Oswald, Jeff Mills, Luke Slater, Josh Wink and Speedy J. Those are the dudes that have kept me interested the longest.

Amps Pretty sure this was around 2002 I saw him.

Annexe was Yousef, spent most of the time there, was packed. Main room was Picotto and some pitched up trance shite like Jon O’Bir, empty-ish. Courtyard closed. May be wrong though, the mind plays tricks with time.

They seemed to have a really weird booking policy when the superclubs were dying, Yousef could pull a decent crowd but they copied the banging shite on at GodsKitchen and Gatecrasher for a while.

zackster More is actual style of playing than his choice of music. Just sort of monotonous.

zackster Not a joke. Hood is actually great. And I really love Josh Wink too. The rest of your choices….not my cuppa.

bosstrabs Jon O’Bir

Crikey.

Amps Yeah, it was so shit around that time I distinctly remember flyer girls in Baa Bar and similar places basically begging people to go, saying “it’s twelve quid to get in but ten with this flyer”. They couldn’t keep it going every week could they?

hugopal They talk about cases but conveniently don’t mention the limited to zero deaths or people in intensive care.

Do you mean in general or somewhere specific? There’s been 4427 deaths in the last 24hrs. It’s still far from under control and plague raves (lol) are a little provocative to say the least.

Amps Maybe I’ve got the dates wrong, could be a few years on to be honest.

Remember it being great from around 1997-2002 and then everybody just kind of couldn’t be arsed.

People got into the Zutons and started hanging around Korova OR fancying something less obviously superclub like Lemon Lounge. Maybe that was just my mates. And maybe my years are a bit off.

Also, I am a bad wool.

Yeah, Korova didn’t open until 2005 and then really kicked off in 2006. I worked above it for a bit and my mate was the bar manager, a great laugh and yeah, very much at the front of the change in Liverpool at the time.

bosstrabs Nah, thats about right imo.

Amps Around that time I distinctly remember pulling an absolute stunner from Greasby in Concert Square on a night out, properly bossing it in my Diesel gear, and then getting binned off because her mates told her “what’ve you pulled him for? He’s a bad wool”

Concert Square… enough said.

I was crushed. Even though I was head to toe in the latest Diesel gear, looking like some kind of suave Scandinavian European fashionista, the accent betrayed me.

LT42 in Europe, where most of these events appear to have been happening.

bosstrabs Tough crowd!
