Description: Catchphrase – A trip to Uranus. JLT: Police came and shut it down around 2am, but not before they were locked out, ravers were locked in, and the sound system cranked! Then, “as raving usual” I remember going on this theme park ride inside the warehouse; it was a single seat human gyroscope that euphorically rocked my senses. After months of raving it really helped fix my back. And then; there were these crazy clowns from outer space! That’s when the armed riot squad finally came in, it was all smoky with lights and lasers and they didn’t know what to do while ravers were fleeing around them and their rifles. Eventually they realized where the DJ was and asked him to turn the music off. Ravers were scrambling to get out the door by this time… Everyone got tipped off to head to Sydney Park. We jammed to tunes from some guys car speaker system. Remember how his car battery went flat at dawn and some guys got him started again with jumpers. Then another car started cranking the tunes. Even though Space Cadet got closed, my friends and I got to meet a lot of Ravers that night in the park. Good old times! 🎥Video: Space Cadet 33 1/3 Flashback94
