    Used to do the SLAM ones, there used to be ones called Desert Storms and they were well dodgy. Was in one in a warehouse in the East End totally nutted thinking I might not come out of this alive then all of a sudden 100 police in riot gear stormed in. Never been happier to see the police.

        Might well have been the same raves I went to.

        Remember going to one in a Circus tent near Paisley, well dodgy bouncers with big FO dogs at the door. Police raided it about 6 am, tonnes of them came in with riot shields etc and the DJ decides to put on fk the police by NWA. I figured that was a good time to leave ...

          I like both kinds.

          Guess you're getting old when you stop appreciating the 'new' music ...

            I'm not old yet. I listen to music by people that are still alive. I don't have a CD collection that reads "XXXXX Greatest Hits". I'm off to another music festival this weekend.

            I just think it was really cool to be around then. But I may be biased.

                First proper one I ever went to. Man what a blast. What a line up too, Ultrasonic live. Bass Generator. Whatever happened to them. I was on the video as well. 16 year old malkyed kid wandering past the camera.

                I was always at the Rezzies though at the Highland centre in Inglston. First time I saw TTF was there, hah now that's a blast from the past.
