Parked up in the car park ,walked down with scruffy and baby sweets to join the madness ,in the freezing cold ... where we met Hangercrew and the ever growing number of first time ravers (pissed already hahaha and falling everywhere)..

Everyone was in great spirits, and we worked our way forward ,slowly ,but steadily, seeing loads of the usual suspects along the way ..angie and dj passion (quality pic with pc plod and dod lol ).. the added entertainment of a large jeep and car and trailer pulling a Rezerection ad up and down the queue turned a few heads ..if your going to advertise hahaha ..

Got in main arena around 7pm ish ,credit to the security guys and everyone in the queue no stampedes ala COTT, and the security was quick and the guys were a good laugh ...

Anyway got in as marc smith was rocking the Fantazia arena dropping some old classics and you could feel that old buzz about the place, like all the time before at other events here, it was shaping up to be a cracking night ..

Myself, scruffy and baby sweets then went on drink hunt, got a scope of the Nuklear Puppy arena (bangin early on) the Luvely arena and gatecrasher arena.. all filling up nicely.. grab a few tokens and drinks and headed back to main arena ....................................

To catch SUBURBAN DELAY get the place going ..energy rush highlight for me as ever, dj Brisk rockin the crowd with some anthems ..and slowly but surely the usual suspects started to appear lol ...

kateybaby, zippy, lorna, jamhay, hanger, gee raver, jambo, gilly, Charlie ... cheers katey for the moment giving me nightmares now the improntue up kilt attack hahahahah ....... great as ever to catch up with all the forum crew and have a good gab as ever about random nothings lol.

Then after being asked by Chris if I wanted to hold the mic to do some mock interviews in front of the camera, wasn't in right state to be front man lol, volunteered baby sweets hahahaha classic...

Anyway back to the night ,next up Woody van Eyden wow the guys nuts dropping some classic old trance tracks and rocked the arena with his nuts performance.

Sades of ryhthm as ever these guys imo are awesome one of the pa's of the night for me the old skool classics had me singing along ..quality .. Then the immortal and totally mental Bassy G and mc Loco doing it hardstyle and totally blowing the place to bits what a set, I know Bassy G was wanting to showcase the new hard style sound and he did loved it ...

I think about this time myself, baby sweets and scruffy went for a chill outside and some more drink and blast on the waltzers hahahahah madness, then returned to catch lenny dee pounding the arena and everyone loving every minute ,even scruffy the old skool man .

Around this time caught up with mc boff, vertical drop, mc Aruption, beanz, tony, big ballistic, jude to name a few more all having a great bounce ...

Then QFX and mc Voyager getting the place jumping with some classic Scottish bouncy ...and everyone singing along to Disco land and children of the night ....lol hheeeeyyyyy eyyy ohhhhhhhh hahahahah...

DYE WITNESS another set I was looking forward to and as ever Misjah dropped the tunes and got the place going, master plan and the future had the place going mental ...

ULTRA-SONIC got to take my hat off they were wicked really enjoyed there set got everyone going and the live percussion ,drums was wicked addition to the set ....

Public Domain baffled me a little haven't seen them for a few years live so hadn't heard any of the newer material by the guys and went for a wander near the end of their set and checked out the luvely and puppy arena's...

Luvely was jumping with some great funky house, sadly not to the taste of angie and passion, baby sweets and scruffy moved onto the puppy arena to find it sadly quiet sound level wise don't know if the speakers had blown???

So back to the main arena we ventured to catch the second half of Dave Angels set, personally a bit different to what I remember back in the day but enjoyed seeing him again ... then the mighty ART OF FIGHTER bloody hell these guys are mental i knew they were hard having seen them aka the mechano twins earlier this year but they were HARD AS F@@@ and shook everyone up and got the place rocking once more ,honestly not really my thing but actually really enjoyed them ... and to finish Obsession and mc Madman dropped all the Tom Wilson classics .......and the arena was still really full when the lights came up at 6am ..wicked ....

To everyone I met, scruffy top bloke, charlie Fantazia (cheers ), kateybaby (naughty lol), jams, zippy and mini zippy, lorna, jambo raver, gilly, hanger crew, quazer, gee raver ,pap pea, sweet pea, bassy g, mc loco, boony and everyone I said hi to, too many to mention ...
