With the memory of Convergence the night before, I set off to see a different breed of hard dance DJ - some bloke they call Eddie Halliwell.
The Cross itself is an amazing club. The crowd are some of the most up-for-it I've ever seen in my time clubbing, and the atmosphere of the place is off the chart. My only quibble is with too many people seemingly in one place. That and the heat, but once I'd found an air duct I was fine.
Luke Neville's in the trance room showed me for the first time just why Serious regulars hold him in such high regard - the man was amazing. Elsewhere, the two lov-er-ly young fillies working the decks in the funky house room got my hips swaying for at least two reasons. Hopefully my photos came out.....
However, the main reason I was there (well okay, the only reason I was there) was the man like Eddie Halliwell. And, as usual, he didn't disappoint. After missing Eddie Friday night at Slinky, he more than made up for it by playing a superlative set of some downright euphoric trance. Not as hard as I usually like it, but his encore made up for it....
Over 4 Me. Bits and Pieces. What Ya Got For Me? A double rewind of Madagascar. All impeccably chopped and scratched. Su-perb. By this time the dancefloor in the main room had cleared a bit, and I was able to dance like a loon to my hearts content. Fantastic end to a fantastic night.
And then it was onto the after party....
TUNE OF THE NIGHT: Together - So Much Love to Give
One of the few times I left the trance room was when the opening bars of this hands in the air house anthem echoed over to where I was dancing. A true tune that will live in the annals of the house music hall of fame.
