Sounds cool...not sure what doing yet for bank holiday

Theres something satisfying-sounding about cruising down the Thames to a soundtrack of techno

WOW! What a party! Not had that much fun in ages!

Ho vs Smith for first couple of hours followed by Ruskin vs Sims for the last 2 hours. Absolutely rocked,the atmosphere on the boat second to none. Just a big group of sound people havin a right royal rave up....

Roll on next years,I wont be missing that one!

I am really, really gutted I couldn't get to this.

Useless mates and their inability to buy tickets :bash:

Jay Pace

Avoided Lost this time around.
To be honest I can't see myself going to Lost for a while. Mills seems set on noodling everyone into submission, and the soundsystem has a habit of making everything sound shite.

Booker Shade @ TDK were good, but hardly worth the £30 I got raped for on the door.

...grumble grumble grumble....

...whinge moan... mutter....

It was ages since I had been to SE1 so I enjoyed that but the music, crowd and lighting just was not up to scratch :(

In fact what lighting???

I heard TDK was maxed the **** out!?!

Jay Pace

TDK was rammed.

Problem being that most of the rooms were playing fairly identical music, and so the crowds were permanently moving from one room to the next, to the next, to the next.... and dancefloors periodically turned into slow moving queues.

Still, had fun. Atmosphere was pretty good, eye candy was bountiful, got to dance about outdoors which is always ace, and booka shade were quality.

Next year I am going buy a dozen tickets to the sodding retrovert party, and force people onto the boat with a cattle prod.

that was indeed the darkest,sleaziest techno venue i have been to in my life. lost everyone in about 10 minutes of hittin the dancefloor.

mills last hour was brilliant though when he started dropping the early 90's stuff. mills is good but i really dont buy hearing him play the same sets over and over again. same tunes different order each time. fair play,the majority are his own but I really dont wanna listen to them each time i see the guy.
