Haha, the walls dripping in sweat! I was more of a jungalist, but had some ridiculously filthy techno nights at Loco (was it the Maze before that?) and the Depot in Old Market.

The Black Swan for some face melting breakcore too!

I think it was the Maze after, Black Swan had some cracking nights, and who can forget Cafe Blue on a Sunday. Sometimes the weekend went on forever

Yes!! That must have been the darkest sweatiest club around!!

The inch deep of water? In the toilets did it for me. And every bloke struggling to piss

If you're into Trance may I recommend Luminosity Beach Festival in Zaandfort. Last weekend in June, went last year, such a good vibe. The Dutch certainly know how to do a party

Was more mid 90s for me - use to go to the big events - Dreamscape, Tribal Gathering, United Dance, Bagleys in London… also loads of stuff in Bristol - Bristol Exposure, Roughneck Ting, Deathrow Techno, plus Friday night at Lakota week after week! Remember doing a few of the free ones in Forest of Dean too.

Completely with you about still loving the music - I discovered a great app one recent drunken night where I was going down a YouTube rabbit hole watching old rave videos - it’s on https://www.mixcloud.com/

They have loads of old DJ sets from back in the day - found quite a few that I was at!

 

For me, no club will ever beat Club Loco. Some proper messy nights in there

Isn't there free streaming like for football games? 

Amazon?

Any Old Skool Ravers out there?

Loved the Music back then, and still do in my Fifties. What an era, it will never be beaten IMO.

Some very Red Cheeks and Saucer eyes

Enjoy (and feel free to post any links to any hidden gems)

 

Went to my first rave in Kingsweston woods at 17. (1989). Missed a lot when I joined the Army, came out just as the Trance scene kicked off in 98. Went to MoS for my 50th this year. Loving the old crew raving still, I think we forget how long this has been around sometimes.

He dummied a shot didn't he? certainly looked like that

That doesn't make sense, City losing made the gap bigger?

I think he means Newcastle as Saudi, not man city

Good knowledge but will they have it in Tescos?!

You can get Lebanese wine from Chandos Deli in Henleaze. 

I tried to boycott but failed miserably. Work was just too boring today

So who's going tonight? Looking forward to it. Should be a big challenge for the boys, in front of the largest ever sporting crowd at the new Ashton Gate.

I am, and just had two tickets become available through illness if anyone's interested.

As someone who very loosely follows rugby, how close to first choice are the two sides?

Possibly 8 from Bristol, no idea about the SA side but as they have a game against Italy on Saturday, not many is my guess

If you really thought it would be the first team i have no words.

Not too sure about the reference to not swearing around women, the lady next to me on Saturday was a proper potty mouth, and my wife's language is worse than mine. It's all equal nowadays lads

Not city related but 25 years ago today England got the point they needed to reach France 98 . I’m sure some of the old city faces where there . Great write up of the bbc football website 

Bloody hell, time flies. I was in Linekers bar in Plays de las Americas on post tour leave. Started a manic two week holiday that did

Chin up everyone, the good news is that  City and Bears are on at the same time this Saturday so you don’t have to watch both blood baths. 

Unfortunately I can

Some game at Exeter today.

Think that last call could have gone either way, but yes, cracking game

I think it's great, how you can get wound up by make believe characters is quite remarkable

2 wins from 2, and a first win at Wasps in God knows how long.

Not to be sniffed at.

Scrappy game and if Wasps could have held onto the ball it might have been a different story. However our defence is vastly improved from last year. And it's 22 years since we last best Wasps away

Not on TV now either

Where are they finishing this season then, after last years hiccup?

Gotta be aiming top 4 surely? Saracens, Sale, Quins + Bears?

I'm hoping top 6 anything else will be a bonus. Saracens, Quin's, Leicester and Gloucester for me

Or that £250k a year is a bit above what the average Joe earns and could get you something pretty nice here.... (Not in Portishead obviously, we are all seriously loaded down here )

No you're not, I used to live there

And the good news today is, Ellis is available to play on Friday. Looks like he had no intention of missing this one
