Mark.......

....... Have you played at any of the Lunatec free partys in Exeter?

I went new years eve' 2002, it was funkin outrageous!

no actually... i've heard about them though. is there an info line or something?

haha I could go on for ages about how good Lunatec was!!!

They are ****ing amazing...i've only been to one and by far one of best nites out ever....also one of messiest....ITS ALL GOOD and since then i've started liking the darkest of dark music more than the cheddar I was into before.

I'd never experienced anything on a scale like it before, a free party outdoors from 7 till 6 in a quarry with the likes of M-Zone, Jay Sanders, Nick The Kid, Orphues + Akira, 4 play and loads of other wicked names playing and one extremly loud soundsystem(the loudest i've ever heard a system to be honest).... with a woman selling stella from a caravan way past any closing time....definitely got me wrecked.... the event helped me meet loads of very sound people too ! Also around 1000 turned up too - wicked nite.

I dont thinkthere will be any more as the promoter of them CHRIS NRG (who used to run NRG records in exeter) has shut up shop, but there may well be more free parties.

I know there may well be more dartmoor events too for south west fans - I went to one last summer before lunatec which was quality.

If anyone does know of any hard/uplifting trance/techno free parties in southwest then i'm more than interested.

'ave it.

Essay over.

Mark I had a look on the net for a info line, no joy mate, Im sure its worth you looking into though, it would be mad to see you 'avin it in a quarry :P

Oiiiii Oiiiii Louk you mad ape man ! :D ...

Yeah I remember the Gypsie women selling beer on new years eve, there were three tents, D&B, OLD SKOOL, TECHNO& TRANCE, it was heaving.

the floor space in the techno & trance tent was on a slope, so you had to walk up a hill to get to the DJ it was mental .... grass everywhere!

WHAT THE FCUK! :D

it was snowing too that night, and it settled, some people made a massive bonfire and everyone was stood around it drinking and getting messy
:shock:

**** sake monkey one minute, ape the next, chimp the next.

haha the gypsy woman was class - it was well good getting wrecked at like 5 in the morning - falling half asleep then getting up for a full on stomp ...

south west needs more events dartmoor is going to waste.

Louk

I WANNA FULL ON FOREST PARTY, DEEP IN THE DEPTHS OF A WOOD, WITH LIGHTS ON ALL THE TREES hahahahahaha .......

that would be proper insane :shock:

ok looks like these parties are over but hey keep us informed guys - after all i live in leeds and sometimes it's hard to find out about free stuff down there!!!

S hit why do all good things come to an end? :cry:

We'll keep our eyes peeled ( :shock: ) for more west country tribal gatherings :wink:

Mark why don't you move to southwest as you play down here loads anyway!! :)

hahaha.. I cant say much as I'll probably be a northern bey come the end of the year.

Louk

i proud of being northern.. 8) dont ask me why. it's so silly but i am. no matter how much i love the south, i can't see myself living there.. hehehe :lol:

you should buy a holiday home for down here mate :thumbs up:

this free party stuff sounds cool, i would love to experiance something like that, raving in a quarry, mental. I hear that the country club use to have a free party feel to it, shame i never got around to going down their b4 it shut.

Mate the atmosphere that was generated in the Country Club is undescribable, I dont know of any other clubs like it anywhere.Does anyone? lol ........
600 or so people 'avin it to the the most upfront trance & techno in the dirtiest, darkest, dingiest nightclub you can imagine, bang in the middle of nowhere.A 9 ft high ceiling (what a trippy perspective that gives to a club), a 25 k thumping sound system, wicked UV paintings of naked women and mythical creatures covering the walls that surrounded the dancefloor, a pass out system, where you were free to go in and out of the club to your cars as you pleased & it was open from 10pm -8am ...

The C.C.' s slogan; 'Dont go to a club, come to a party' .......

and what a party it was.Innit Mark :wink:

Think Im gonna cry (again) :cry:

yeah gutted i never went to the country club

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? :shock:

yeah true

not the easiet place to get to from leicester esp when i dont drive

word :(
