BM: Flammable was my first outdoor gig. At the time I was expecting jungle music 😂. I remember it was flogging down rain to the point all the lighting started to fuck out so they shut off most of the light and we pretty much danced in darkness. There was some twisted looking faces in the darkness. I remember they built a fire around a dead tree and at some point the tree fell and the tip cracked some dude in the head. That morning as it became light i remember looking up to a rd above and seeing a line farmers at there cars watching us. That night sparked my love for outdoor parties although I went more down the psy trance path. I've been doofing ever since

Description:
SKP: Rave back in time was a great name from Shade. I went to one in the late 90's at the rooftop and the floor felt like it was going to give way. It was going up and down with the ravers jumping. Crisis played at it and it was like 2 am and during his set the power went out. Totally dark and silent for a few minutes, then it all came back on and the crowd cheered and jumped even more 😆😀 JLT: I was at this party! The floor was about to break and everyone knew it! Tiny little stairwell - 1920s beams luckily before the war so they lasted. SKP You could also chill out in some area that was a pretty good view and had fresh air. Like sort of outside but still way up high. Those stairs up were hectic. JLT: Yeah the RoofTop balcony opposite the Coke sign.
