benson slide at the zodiac
Happy days… 😄
vinnyt77 Some very fun nights there.
benson Terrible flashback to seeing James Holden there reenacting an elephant repeatedly falling down the stairs for an hour!
benson remind me when you were there? Presumably you were ledging it up at slide at the zodiac and some dirty d+b in the backroom at the bully?
Absolutely.
1998-2002.
Or the glory years as they’re known.
FabiParas That rings all sorts of bells. Did we go with Alan?
vinnyt77 We went to see Nigel play. Holden was the ‘Warm-up’ act!
Slide was a great night.
Saw Parks & Wilson knocking out the POWER prog there.
Smallman1 that was Shanks & Bigfoot mate
Regulars there. Will look through any photos from back in the day and see if I can see any giraffes ont he dancfloor. w used to sneak into crunchy as well.
Used to get the oxford tube down to bedrock 2000-2001. The state of us coming home. All sorts of winning
FabiParas That’s the one! Went a few times and was always a good night out…
Crunchy, now there is a blast from the blast.
That and Park (Shark) End.
vinnyt77 Me and dan often reminisce over this night. Despite the fact we weren’t to actually meet for a few years we can share stories of just how bad JH was that night.
Smallman1 it’s some going to have an expensive private school education and still end up at Oxford Brookes - did your dad at least ask the school for a refund?

Due to being an outrageously gifted sportsman he didn’t have to pay full whack.
He would have been more than happy to though on the basis he was shifting millions of records back then.
Shark end was great. As was thirst. And fifth avenue above sainsburys. And when desperate DTMs.
Back to covid, just got the text for my second jab appointment. Not bad news at all
benson 🤣

Is “Sweet Like Chocolate” the worst song ever made?
jonattonyeah there’s a lot of competition for that title. I still contend that its a toss between barbie girl and blue (da ba dee)
jonattonyeah Is “Sweet Like Chocolate” the worst song ever made?
Worse…
jonattonyeah there are a lot of contenders from UK Garage in that era - one could probably make a reasonable claim for 99% of the entire genre.
Artful Dodger ft Daniel Bedingfield ‘Gotta Get Thru This’ and Sweet Female Attitude ‘Flowers’ are two other ghastly examples.
All classics of park end 98-01. The benson years.
bosstrabs That is a fucking awful record. Music sounds better with you, or whatever it’s called and those French cunts, Daft Punk - Get Lucky.
bosstrabs still courting Vanessa Feltz. Imagine

FUN FUN FUN FUN
bosstrabs Saw live last year at a socially distanced ‘festival’.
Still pony
