Your favourite year of clubbing

1989 was my favourite year by a country mile - I only caught the tail end of 88 - and though 1990 was excellent too, nothing ever compares to your first cally in an aircraft hanger

Never wish years away but would’ve loved to have seen S&D at their pomp in the ’90’s. They were just too established for warehouses in San Francisco. I was too young to see them in clubs. PVD did play one spot for some weird reason in like 1999. Leveled the place. I didn’t even like Trance, was a House guy, but that was fun.

jonattonyeah Deep East Oakland is another story.

yeah i learned about that from too short lol. i’ll check that doc out, thanks.

303abuser too short

LEGEND. Him and Mac Dre (RIP) are Town royalty.

And yeah the doc is good. The end is pretty hard to watch. For me, anyway. But I’m more sensitive than many. The number of people filmed who ended up murdered over the course of making it is just tragic.

I think it’s impossible to pick one year. 1993, 94, 96 and 98 were absolute belters.

LT42 Dan, you once had a thread my friend. My condolences.

Lol!

Has Alexei Sayle ever said anything funny?

‘dave’ seems to think so.

I only started in 89 but it was 90/91 that i got really into it. Went to a rave every week all over the country,travelling up in a convoy of cars, arriving at a massive rave and seeing lasers shooting across a field, hearts pounding or queuing outside a club and hearing that thud thud of the music and knowing full well you’re in for another good night.

Techno trance was a big one for me too. First heard it on Key 103.. Stu Allan. Went into Spin Inn records in Manchester to get it.

Dubman Loved the NJOI stuff, played this to death at the time.

I can’t remember if i saw them live. I did see Adamski, Guru Josh loads of times.

Dubman saw Guru Josh at Slough Centre around the time of Infinity - think I saw Adamski there too at a similar time, when Live & Direct was doing its thing

I always thought Guru Josh was the fella out of Lost Boys with the Sax

Dubman Yeah, Outback, Yikes, Pleasure Zone - Our paths probably crossed - Ello mate, where you from? What you on?

ArchimedesQ
Went to a Yikes but not Pleasure Zone. Did you goto any of the Perception raves.
