I started out raving all the way back in 1993 went to a lot of the old big rave events up until 1997 when I moved over to the more clubby side of things and started going to places like Sundissential, Gatecrasher, Passion, Gods Kitchen etc – Sundissential was like a second home to me is just a shame it went downhill so rapidly

Went to most of the big festivals like Summer Sound System, Creamfields, Global Gathering too.

Stayed with the clubby places until about 2005 and then went back to raving again and now tend to go to Old Skool events more than anything although nowhere near as regularly as before.

Amazing I should really add some of mine I used to love G/C and insomniacz straight after. God knows how we did it like

Promise as in Foundation? the one in Tooooooooooon? that was my old haunt!!!!

 

[SmileyShazza]

Insomniacz was amazing - I miss the good old days!

Go to Sundissential in Birmingham, Passion or Gods on a satn night, up to Sheffield for Insomniacz then either to the Howard and then to Sunday Mass or Hoover in the evening or to Sundissential North if it was on.

Couldn't do that these days - I don't have the energy!

Fantastic selection Farley is in my top 3 just missed out seeing TVD!!!

And I love Malice in Wonderland by Pants and Corset brings me memories of Camden Palace

Would love to go back just for one night with everyone there x

 

[SmileyShazza]

Well they had the reunion - I didn't go though because I knew it wouldn't be the same it used to be. It was all about Uropa and Corporation and a lot of the people that went back then wouldn't go now

I'm just glad I was a part of it at the time - got great memories

 

[Frankie]

Thats what I mean it changed once the promoters started getting greedy

Take Madders who co owned Sunnies hes locked up for beating his mother up!!!, to think I once looked up to him for the work he did.

I was so tempted to go to Magna next weekend for Insomniacz but I think it wouldnt be the same

Is that where he is now? Last I heard he was working in some supermarket! He was a funny bloke (in the head) although he quite often used to scare me – what a dirty old letch!

Sunnies started losing it when the Que Club closed down (although it’s reopened now) it made me sad to see it go so downhill from the days when it was at Pulse and what it became – although I do think that part of the problem at both SS at Insomz was some of the people who went and the way they behaved.

Quite a few of my friends are going to Magna next weekend but they are younger and never went to SS or Insomz during their hey day.

I really should put some pictures up!

 

[Frankie]

Deffo get some photos up!!

Yep thats what I got told and a lot of people were saying. He used to always try and the get the lasses in the toilets at Evolution mean he must have been minted and able to offer them some quality 'naughties'

I would love to see him working in a Supermarket.

Do you think it was everyone taking GHB? which spoilt it?

Madders was unable to get back to Evolution unless he went b2b with Crasher or Goodgreef.

Queue club I never attended. I went to one in Birmingham where the toilets were shared and they used to have people djing in there? Sanctuary maybe/?

 

[SmileyShazza]

I deffo think it was the Geebee heads that ruined it - just all got a bit out of hand in my opinion people were so blatent and just went too far with everything.

Hmmm not sure about the venue with shared toilets - possibly The Academy only went there once or twice.

Gone through my pics and they've all got other people on them and I don't think they would want them on here

Hello ladies!

I am also a fellow cyber kid! I started in 1997 at S.L.A.G The Steering Wheel in Birmingham and then went to Sundissential North, Insomniacz, Sunday Mass, Goodgreef etc.....eek I used to date Barry Bignose...the shame!

Only last night I was reliving my clubbing memories on 4clubbers where I found a load of old photos from 2001....I cannot quite believe that here I am now 10 years later and married with a baby on the way!

Great memories though and met some great people!
