i couldn't persuade a single person to come to fabric with me, so i stayed in and got cooked for by my flatmate.

i don't know about stink - will see how i feel tomorrow. last time i went we were at 93 feet east until 11, then we wandered on down to the t bar, and it was a good time to arrive - if i go tomorrow i shall be doing the same. all people up for stink, 93ft east beforehand!

i wished i had gone out last night.

i am very keen to go out next weekend, i'm thinking about steve barnes at the key, but really, i'll go anywhere, i need a big blow out

i'll see about monday

― terry lennox. (gareth), Sunday, 5 March 2006 15:08 (twenty years ago)

I walked past Fabric at about 3am and briefly considered going in until I saw the queue. Quite glad I didn't considering no one was in there.

I am up for the Key this weekend.

I went to Fabric. It was good. Matt John was very impressive. Kiki was nice. Ellen Allien a little dissapointing. Ricardo Villalobos and Zip excellent.

Fabric wasnt as rammed as it has been. All in all fairly manageable. They also extended the hours and it was open till 9.30am. When I left at 8, Ricardo and Zip were playing back to back, dancefloor had space to move and upstairs was half full.

Afterparty at T-Bar was excellent too. Ricardo played back to back with Kiki / Matt John / Zip and Craig Richards. Lots of random messiness but quite funny.

Stink tomorrow will likely go till 2. Last Stink went till 3-3.30, but I think theyve been wrapping up a bit earlier. Anyway should be fun. Margaret Dygas mix is available at: http://www.minimallondon.com/margaret_dygas/mixtapes/margaret_dygasMIXTAPE_underl_nemix.zip

oh, the key, lets get drugs, lets make it the best

― terry lennox. (gareth), Monday, 6 March 2006 02:15 (twenty years ago)

OMG TRAPEZ/TRAUM STYLE

― terry lennox. (gareth), Monday, 6 March 2006 02:17 (twenty years ago)

i'll be in the t-bar from 10...

― toby (tsg20), Monday, 6 March 2006 18:12 (twenty years ago)

i don't think i'll make it tonight :(

― The Lex (The Lex), Monday, 6 March 2006 19:00 (twenty years ago)

cant make tonite (not sure how many mondays im going to be able to make)

definitely keen on the key at the weekend though

― terry lennox. (gareth), Monday, 6 March 2006 19:05 (twenty years ago)

i can make no plans for the weekend (inc those you referred to in your text last night, gareth) - i think my friday might be quite big. also i don't know how to get guestlist for the key and i can't afford to pay for clubs.

contemplating holden at the t bar on thu.

― The Lex (The Lex), Monday, 6 March 2006 19:09 (twenty years ago)

what is holden?

― terry lennox. (gareth), Monday, 6 March 2006 19:21 (twenty years ago)

james holden! dude who remixed 'the sky was pink' and made it amazing.

― The Lex (The Lex), Monday, 6 March 2006 19:22 (twenty years ago)

Ill be at the t-bar from 10 or so. if you see a guy in a black t-shirt with a red star, say hi!

― Good Dog (Good Dog), Monday, 6 March 2006 19:31 (twenty years ago)

I'm staying in tonight, and am busy elsewhere on Saturday, but will be rocking Bangface on Friday as per.

― RickyT (RickyT), Monday, 6 March 2006 20:55 (twenty years ago)

So I went. It was good. Lot of really excellent trance. Like The Knife - Silent Shout being really well received. Yes, kinda minimal, but really trance.

― rchinn (rchinn), Tuesday, 7 March 2006 03:56 (twenty years ago)

yeah, the knife was definitely a highlight. i now know why i don't usually drink when i go out dancing, though :-(

― toby (tsg20), Tuesday, 7 March 2006 09:31 (twenty years ago)

Yup, that was fun, I'd go again. Although it did make me yearn for the good ol' IDM club nights of yesteryear...

― ledge (ledge), Tuesday, 7 March 2006 10:10 (twenty years ago)

er anyone up for triple r/alex under/trapez on 31st march, or jeff samuel 13th april?

― ambrose (ambrose), Tuesday, 7 March 2006 22:12 (twenty years ago)

Bangface is going to be better than the Key, isn't it?

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Tuesday, 7 March 2006 22:29 (twenty years ago)

yes it will be, more fun but, another contender has arrived! steve bicknell and alexander robotnick at plastic people.

― terry lennox. (gareth), Tuesday, 7 March 2006 22:50 (twenty years ago)

yesss. i will be at the alexander robotnik show, even though i dont know what day it is. i saw him in detroit this summer and it was so much fun.

― emma cleveland (emma cleveland), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 16:07 (twenty years ago)

oh! its this saturday, 10pm-330am

― terry lennox. (gareth), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 16:50 (twenty years ago)

i am totally 50-50, as to whether i prefer this or bangface

― terry lennox. (gareth), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 16:51 (twenty years ago)

they're on different days, aren't they?

― toby (tsg20), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 16:56 (twenty years ago)

i am a fragile flower

― terry lennox. (gareth), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 17:10 (twenty years ago)

I might go to the Alex Under / Triple R / Sud Electronic thing. Some of their other parties have been good.

So much on though through late march, and then middle of April...

Have you heard about the M-nus easter party?

― rchinn (rchinn), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 17:35 (twenty years ago)

i move to london tomorrow from scunthorpe. you must understand, this is all very exciting for me. haha
im an american, who has lived in the country her whole life.

― emma cleveland (emma cleveland), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 17:40 (twenty years ago)

oh i didnt even see the ceephax and uziq gig. damnnn.
im going to be poor very quickly...

― emma cleveland (emma cleveland), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 17:44 (twenty years ago)

m-nus easter party??? pls tell me more!

― ambrose (ambrose), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 23:50 (twenty years ago)

Stink was an eyeopener for me (I'd never been to a club in England before). I thought the music was a tad inconsistent (Neil Diamond?) but oh my god Mayer played the Chain so all was well with the world. And some of the newer Kompakt stuff sounds tasty.

Richard, you didn't realise I was Tami's boyfriend when you said hello!

― Good Dog (Good Dog), Thursday, 9 March 2006 08:30 (twenty years ago)

I'm pulling out of all this weekend's festivities - Monday is a very important day and I know how I feel physically and emotionally after rolling London dancing and it's not a state I want to be in next week.

NEXT weekend, on the other hand, is a goer. Am I right in thinking there's a birthday coming up?

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 9 March 2006 10:01 (twenty years ago)

For a golf raver, yes. Though not next weekend.

Everyone should go to Bangface, though it's possibly too late for anyone else to do so.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Thursday, 9 March 2006 10:28 (twenty years ago)

oops, looks like bangface is a no go then:/

working next weekend:/

perhaps i will go home for the weekend:/

― terry lennox. (gareth), Thursday, 9 March 2006 10:42 (twenty years ago)

Yeah Dog - had no idea you were Tami's boyfriend. I got home and thought, "Shit, I forgot to try and find Tami's boyfriend". So way to go on the random connection.

Minus easter party is Hawtin, Pierce, Magda, Heartthrob and Gaiser. On the 16th down at one of those crappy clubs in the tunnel at London Bridge. Awful venue for such good tunage.

Absolutely no chance of going to Bangface. On first glance it looks like horrendous stuff.

― rchinn (rchinn), Thursday, 9 March 2006 11:31 (twenty years ago)

16th april?

― ambrose (ambrose), Thursday, 9 March 2006 12:14 (twenty years ago)

Yes.

― rchinn (rchinn), Thursday, 9 March 2006 15:26 (twenty years ago)

i like arches under london bridge! i saw...rob hood there last year

i am going to go to this.

― terry lennox. (gareth), Thursday, 9 March 2006 15:29 (twenty years ago)

i want to hear Tranquilizer, or is it Sleepchamber. im mixing up with Paul Hazel now. Anyway, none of that matters really

in other news, Man Like Woebot is rinsing out the krautrock dubplates at roughneck kosmischey night at old blue last, on sunday night.

― Da Dizzler Terry L (gareth), Thursday, 9 March 2006 15:33 (twenty years ago)

i thought that hawtin easter party was at plastic people, sponsored by lost?

― emma cleveland (emma cleveland), Monday, 13 March 2006 20:33 (twenty years ago)

Bugged Out this Saturday anyone? I'm not sure whether or not Miss Kittin is actually any cop as a DJ but I am fully fit and ready to play.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Monday, 13 March 2006 20:51 (twenty years ago)

after last weekends debacle, of actually managing nothing, i am primed like dean ashton

― red flag over st pancras (gareth), Monday, 13 March 2006 20:58 (twenty years ago)

Hawtin in arches sounds top. But Superpitcher/Mayer the weekend after sounds even better. I can't really do both - my knees will die.

― RickyT (RickyT), Monday, 13 March 2006 21:04 (twenty years ago)

is that at fabric? bah!

cant find out nything about this m_nus night. can anyone provide sources for anything like this? the m_nus site is awful

― ambrose (ambrose), Monday, 13 March 2006 21:17 (twenty years ago)

Minus Minimize to Maximize tour details here on Resident Advisor.

This weekend I am doing M.A.N.D.Y., Craig Richards, DK7, Damian Lazarus at Fabric on Saturday.

― rchinn (rchinn), Monday, 13 March 2006 23:16 (twenty years ago)

so its a joint thing with Lost? ooh

― red flag over st pancras (gareth), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 10:59 (twenty years ago)

i'm doing bugged out yes yes yes i am.

― The Lex (The Lex), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 14:30 (twenty years ago)

I am going to see Mandy and Michael Mayer on Thursday, finally something decent in Dublin! I haven't been this excited about a gig I'm not playing at or involved with in about 3 years. Mind you I'd be more excited if I could take drugs.

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 15:02 (twenty years ago)

r: :/

l: sorry about the other night dude, my phone, doesnt seem to understand your number, and pretends it isnt in there, and i dont know who it is.

― charltonlido (gareth), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 15:06 (twenty years ago)

charlton, my phone does that if I have the person's name in twice, that could be the problem

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 15:11 (twenty years ago)

im feeling myself again today

― charltonlido (gareth), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 15:41 (twenty years ago)
