ACID HOUSE 20PLUS YEARS OLD THIS YEAR, by curiousgeorge on Mar 29, 2008 11:48:49 GMT 1, Ohhh my days. We all got old!!!!
I remember my first event like it was yesterday, spiral tribe on the outskirts of Winchester.I must have been 14/15 went with my older bro and his mates.Police road block about 3? miles from the venue, various 'vendors' jumping out of hedgerows en route to the venue with scarfs made of out of acid tabs.
I was hooked on the scene from that day onwards, Nights at Astoria,Dreamscape,Fantazia,Universe,Interdance,Bar Rumba mid week nights with Fabio, Favourite nights ever were probably Metalheadz at the Bluenote on sundays? and on High Holborn Saturday nights, forgotton waaaaaaaay too much
Got a solid 2000+ records from back in the day,hmmmm to continue decorating over the weekend or setting up some decks and time for some nostalgia.Possibly the best period of my life (with the exception of having children)

ACID HOUSE 20PLUS YEARS OLD THIS YEAR, by kingleopald on Mar 29, 2008 13:03:28 GMT 1, Good grief, this thread really is sensory overload... Amazing how the seratonin levels still jangle when these old tunes kick in. Really was a special time. For a while we were all in on that little secret and was a mighty force for unification. Pivotal moment for me. Orange at The Rocket on the Holloway Rd, knocking some gurt big football hooligan's drink (water probably!!) out his hand and thinking 'fuuuuck, I'm gonna get my head kicked in' and him just breaking this big grin and giving me a sweaty hug...

ACID HOUSE 20PLUS YEARS OLD THIS YEAR, by kingleopald on Mar 29, 2008 20:01:01 GMT 1, Think that's why I like Mau Mau's stuff. Has a few pieces that give the nod to that free party vibe (his Sewerside crew used to put on some wicked parties down in the westcountry a few years back). I've heard there's a novel coming out based on those days.

ACID HOUSE 20PLUS YEARS OLD THIS YEAR, by jmcy9999 on Mar 29, 2008 20:08:22 GMT 1, Cally's - I haven't heard of them for ages. Pink ones! Then Double Doves Always Rhubarbs and custards at free raves Then snowballs...oh snowballs!!
Astoria, Heaven, Trade..... Ektos around 1991 ...anyone?
Then the pills became shit and the scene became pretentious and we all realised that we weren't as beautiful as we thought we were and we became paranoid staying at home smoking weed for years, then we got a coke habit, then we got clean then felt really old and started collecting art!
Or was that just me?
Great thread btw and "top tunes" - is ok to say that when your over 35??

ACID HOUSE 20PLUS YEARS OLD THIS YEAR, by dumpsuk on Mar 29, 2008 21:56:12 GMT 1, i REMEBER A VERY STRANGE NIGHT IN THE FUTRE CLUB NEXT DOOR TO HEAVEN CHARING CROSS ROAD PILLING OF MY NUT WITH THAT PEADO GARY GLITTER AND CULT CLUB FIGURE CALLED LIEGH BOWERY WHO WAS WALKING THE CLUB JUST DRESSED IN LIGHT BULBS LITE UP
Lol Hey Dude, I was at Future on that night, (I'll always miss Leigh Bowry) I think Philip Salon was dressed as a space man. I also used to go to shoom and clink st. when it was literally falling apart, some of the best and worst (those things were strong) nights of my life.
Anyone remember Ziggy's in Streatham, in the very beginning? Paul Oakenfold was resident DJ with Carl Cox.
