    The Courtyard now really holds the fondest memories in terms of the friendships i made in that place, and the sheer magnitude of what was happening in there at that time, none of this Clarke is shite rubbish, just a couple of thousand people who couldnt of been anymore on the same wavelength

    i miss that place something rotten!

    I do hear what your saying mate, and yeah, fair play Tribal Sessions is usually a load of toss, but regardless, I had to mention it purely for the Jeff Mills and Christian Smith night I went to there in June 2004. Without doubt one of the best nights I have had in a techno club over the last few years, and hence I decided to give it a mention.

    as for now had to be the concept tent at dance valley this year on the friday night, all night it was amazing but Carl Cox was wicked. also Realy enjoyed my trips to locked in machester, wicked vibe everytime.
    i agree with all that, also have to mention Orbit that place rocked!!! i first went there wen i was 15 and it was my first proper club experiance, i have never forgot how amazing it was and how nice the ppl were.....oh and how fuking ace the techno was!!!!!!

    Off the top of my head in no order and subject to change at anytime ;)

    Wire Festival - Japan

    20,000 odd Japanese people just going nuts to Techno in a huge sports arena it rarely if ever gets better than this for Techno.

    D-Edge - Sao Paulo - Brazil

    Wicked little club for about 300 odd people i would guess but amazing sound and visuals (the guy who owns the place is a dj so as you can imagine everything is as it should be from a technical point of view).

    Family - Toledo - Spain

    An absolute madhouse part way between Madrid and Toledo when its fully open holds something like 5000 people and you cannot fault the sound etc at all Spains best kept secret.

    There's so many great places though its difficult to just nail it down to a few let alone one.

    CJ Bolland is on in Wakefield on 24th Sept at Kube Club. Wakey isn't too far from Morley, and i know a hell of a lot of the old Orbit crowd from Wakey and Leeds will be coming out of the woodwork for it anyway, so sounds like a good bet for an Orbit reunion!


    And it's gonna be my birthday bash too, so admittedly I do have a slight vested interest in getting people down to the event, but still sounds like a plan to me.


    Event is up on Techno Promotion for anyone interested.

    Man, that was a great wee spot :clap:
    Played there shortly before Evolution wound up, it was the epitomy of a small, sweaty techno club on that 3rd floor
    Everytime the crowd even sensed the kick coming from the next record they'd be going bonkers, will always remember that night well, and the way everyone roared their heads off in the place

    yeah i should be more positive about that place really, ive had some cracking nights, i recall a night, very vaguely, with Christian Smith on and, i think, Justin Robertson was on but im not sure, although Justin played there once on my birthday and that was a great night, i cant knock them for that, but its run by some very very dubious characters and that puts me right off unfortunately

    but yeah man it has its place definately

    House of God @ Subway - wish i had a time machine so I could re-live some of those nights.

    Atomic Jam @ Que - Awesome venue.

    Planet Rose @ Doornroojse - Most friendly crowd you could imagine, great venue. Felt like a big house party. Made me laugh seeing people cycling home in the morning. U just don't see that in the Uk!
