Just wanted to add to Simon that the C.C is not the kind of club to be affected by commercial clubs, its a class by itself as im sure Mark will agree as will anyone else thats actually been there a few times. I have been going there for about 2 years and my only regret is that i didnt start going sooner! "You never forget your first time" i remember the first time i pulled up in the car, up this stoney rough track, then this weather beaten rather dull looking building. I walked up the stairs and in through the doors and couldnt believe my eyes, somethign magical happens inside. Its undescribable. The music sets the mood immediately and the atmostphere is unreal!.



Then you make your way down stairs, on the way down ur chest vibrates to the driving bass emerging from the downstairs (Main) room. Walk through the monsters mouth (Decor on the surroundings to the room) and onto the dance floor where a 25k sound system meets you with great approval to your ears.



After that one night i was hooked as is everyone else i have ever spoken to there. It truly is impossible to explain this place. It will be sorely missed, and all because of a few individuals.



What kept this amazing place such a magical and welcoming place ? what was its secret? one word......



CLIVE! (the owner)



His love for the music, and the people that attended week after week were what made it what it was/is. He has done so much for so many people (almost to the point of killing himself with all the stress of "other" matters) it is a real shame some people did not realise, either that or they just didnt didnt give a f**k. It makes me truly angry to see it go and for the reason behind it.



Ive seen Mark play many times up there, aswell as many other huge names, DJ Natron (Flutlicht), Lab 4 to mention but a few and always supported by the best residents, past and present, you could ask for (Meri, Cross + Spinout, BenEye, Dave Scott, Liberator).



Closing night 26th Oct is sure to be an emotional one, i will be sure to be there early to ensure i get in and who better than Mark to play the C.C out one last and very sad time. Im sure there will be a few tears - (And who gives a f**k.)



Anyways, that said all thats left to say now for one last time Mark .......



"See you down the front!!"



Goodbye Country Club! :'(
