I totally know what you people mean!
Just moved down to Brighton a few months ago from the midlands thinking this is where it all happens (what was I thinking?) and have had to head west to Portsmouth for all the techno nights!
There's only one night a month here to my knowledge (apex at the pressure point) but it's hardly geushky.
What are we to do (aside from moving to Birmingham)???

PS- Had started going off the dance scene altogether as there seemed no good music to buy. That was until today when I purchased mark eg's "club xperiments"- HAPPY DAYS!!! You've restored my faith in the scene and I'm now kicking myself for not going to your recent night in Portsmouth. Get your ass back there (or Brighton) asap!
:D
