    I've heard a few rumours but this is the best one. Fingers crossed it's true.

    hmmmm, got a meeting with the jones' tomorrow. i shall enquire.

    the sanctuary has had loads of 'potential' owners, all a lot of hot air it seems. but simon has had his experiences there with athletico, so who knows. last i heard they werent in any position to be buying a club, but i had taken what i'd heard with several pinches of salt also.

    hmmmm, yeah, went for my meeting as mentioned above. we where dumped off on the useless promotions assistant so i didnt diclose any of my GROUNDBREAKING AND HIGHLY PROFITABLE CONTACTS AND IDEAS FOR BOOKING PEOPLE WHO THIS COUNTRY WOULDNT GET MUCH CHANCE TO SEE OTHERWISE ideas.

    shortly after, i found out that the med bar is starting a hard house night, and a funky house and speed garage night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    i do despair, i really really do. i cant express how every cell in my body trys to provoke people to put on interesting acts, and increase peopleds awareness of all sorts of music that are popular in the rest of the world. but every time it shocks me, the money grabbing, cash only, keep the masses dumd and spoon off the profit they become.
    it used to be a venue of astounding diversity, but hey, so did the city.

    i hear cologne is lovely this time of year

    I've got a lot of hope for the Canal Club, I've played at a few techno based nights there over the last couple of months, and we've got one coming up in december - but I'll stick the advertisement in the club listings bit.

    It is a top club in my opinion, a nice size, two rooms, and a bangin soundsystem. Also, one of the few clubs I've played in that actually has a great in house set up in terms of decks and that, they've got technics mk5s, an allen & heath xone64, and two cdj800s.
