I ended up going both nights - it was pretty great. The first night with Mr Gong was quite fun, the film they showed was pretty wacky. There was a small amount of what can only be described as Beat Poetry
but it seemed to fit quite well.2nd night was "deeper" and had some amazing moments, but went on a tad too long for me (possibly because I went to both nights!)
Well worth it though.

I think a date clash is going to make me miss it.I ended up going both nights - it was pretty great. The first night with Mr Gong was quite fun, the film they showed was pretty wacky. There was a small amount of what can only be described as Beat Poetry

Well worth it though.
The date clash is with Swans though, so its not all bad...

Ooh, that sounds good. I'm deffo up for that.
I'm actually going to a gig this weekend. They come very few and far between these days due to poverty. Me and the fella were meant to be going but the day after I got the tix he got a fucking gig booked on him 
So instead I'm going to play out in Hebden Bridge with 3 of his former band-mates instead

went to the Exit REcords Brithday at Fire last night, dream lineup, was looking forward to it and missioned it out on a tired Friday night - got inside and the venue was sold out way over capacity, zero room to dance, a complete scrum in every room, claustrophobic and dangerous, the girls i was with squashed even worse, toilets forget it, pity the poor guy i head saying "oh shit im coming up hard" in what was basically a kettle.
i left before 2am pissed off and angry. If this is what passes as clubbing today then fuck it i want no part of it. Based on what you say Im going to give this SubDub thing a miss too (littleseb)...not going through that again. I know The_Reverend_M was there last night too, wonder what he made of it.

Shit I completely forgot that. Would've been a good remedy for my shit week at work.
Oh it wasn't as bad as that at subdub, it didn't feel oversold just busy! And I like a bit more space for that kind of thing

im feeling a bit traumatised by it, so even busy is too busy....people eh? too many of them if you ask me
ive been to subdub at cable once before and i now i think back it was only because i was feeling strong that i put up with occasionally having to push people out of my space and even having a go at a couple of pogoing hipsters falling all over the place. queued up for an hour outside as well to get in. fuck it, not worth the money and energy.

yeah but the sound is nothing compared to the main room....which is often a problem as it forces everyone into the main room. Had that at Jamm for Twinkle Brothers - the capacity of the whole venue squashing into room 1.
Yesterday at Fire was packed in every corner, every room, every corridor and every bar....horrible
enough moaning

hmmm, shame really. i'll be there if you change your mind.....have a think, we'll have a laugh!

You said it, mate! Utterly ridiculous! There's been a LOT of complaining on the Facebook event page and to D-Bridge himself - hope Exit learn to NEVER work with Basslaced again!
I got in the venue about 11:30pm and the main room was already nearing capacity - moved on to room 2, which was fine for Amit, though getting busier and busier. Then the mainroom for d-bridge - oh my... so ram-jammed we ended up dancing in the adjoining bar! Same thing for Bad Company - found it bit weird and frustrating knowing the DJs were actually in the room next door but the soundsystem in the bar was decent enough and you had SPACE! Went outside for some air only to find that when trying to get back in one entrance was approaching a lethal crush situation and the other security were saying is exit only...! Eventually they let us back in this way. I can only assume after all the crushing some people went home as by 4am you had a bit of space to dance again - well in room 2 anyway, didn't actually dance in the main room till Marcus Intalex at 5am! Near the end of his set the MC announced the after party would now be free and carry on in the main room (refunds available for those that had bought tix) - some consolation at least for an arse-ache of a night! Me mates weren't up for staying much longer though. Oh well.
ska - sorry I didn't get back to your calls - signal in there was a bitch!
