CTW Members tony84 Posted April 11, 2005 CTW Members Share Posted April 11, 2005 sorry if this has been mentioned already but i coudlnt see anything and im really surprised this must have been the biggest event of the weekend in the UK or atleast 1 of, did anyone go? 7000 people i cant get the pictures from my phone or videos but when i do i will place them online, it was really good i didnt sped much time in the hardhouse room as my mates are more into the lighter stuff but it was really good, judge jules did a good set and pul van dyk played nothing but you (1 of my favourites) loads of nice women wearing next to nothing (why can yo never pull them women???..or is that just me?) anyway 1 of the best nights ive had in a long time although i was kinda gutted yoji (whatever his surname is) didnt turn up.

CTW Members Spunkmonkey Posted April 12, 2005 CTW Members Share Posted April 12, 2005 it has already been mentioned dude ...you just missed the posts with being blonde ...apparently Fergie played a good set, as did Paul Van Dyke, but t'was in Polsexual Arena (supported by Goodgreef? ) most of the night (only time out of there were a 40 minute round trip t'pisser, drink bar and back ...and that all due t'lousy crowd control in place, and bad functioning of the room layout (having t'cross a mahoosive and very packed dancefloor, t'get t'other side and go in hard room took the piss a little ) one bonus of it though, were hearing the occasional and solitory good track being played out from Gods' Main Arena as a tried me best t'stumble me way across it once or twice (people liked t'make it as difficult as possible for you t'move past it seemed) the idea, like ive said before dude, is not neccesarily (sp) t'go there with the intention of pulling ...some people just never learn ...and then some people are just not as gifted as others as for Yoji Biomehanika ...apparently it were flu that caused his non appearance this time; although after cancelling @ Polysexual for crimbo bash too (apparently Japanese airlines fault ..and Rob Tissera did go part the way make up for it with a brilliant set, and as did Alex Kidd on Saturday) ...t'is starting t'get annoying the amount of times he's cancelling at last minute recently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW Members tony84 Posted April 12, 2005 Author CTW Members Share Posted April 12, 2005 the main reason i didnt go back to the hardhouse room was because of the queue, i went in at aout 10ish for a while and there was a guy with a plunger on his head??? then i went out for a while and couldnt be arsed with waiting that long so just stayed in the main room which wasnt bad, although i wasnt drunk which didnt help and i know not everyone goes out to pull but there were LOADS of women...anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW Members Spunkmonkey Posted April 12, 2005 CTW Members Share Posted April 12, 2005 yeah, there was a dude with a plunger on his head ...but then thats normal ...having said that, the queue seemed t'move fairly quickly the first time, it took about 3 minutes t'get back in ...but second time around it took about 10 minutes ...and that were after it'd taken me nearly 30 minuts t'get out the room, across the main room, up the stairs, down the stairs and back across the room again you shouldnt have t'be drunk t'enjoy yourself y'know ...although for some it helps i guess ...and a lot of people in there would of been off their tits anyway and yes, there were a hell of a lotta' women with nowt' much on other than a smidgen of material here and there ...all part of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW Members pablo Posted April 12, 2005 CTW Members Share Posted April 12, 2005 (edited) I was there, and thought it was so-so. Didnt think it was worth the cash though. And the queueing into the hardhouse arena was a bit shite, especially as there werent any toilets or a bar in there. Guy with the plunger on his head was Captin Rich (A CTW Dude) Thought the trance towrds the end was shocking. As for Yoji not showing, no great lose I dont think. Not seen him play a good set yet (in my humble opinion!) Edited April 12, 2005 by pablo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW Members tony84 Posted April 12, 2005 Author CTW Members Share Posted April 12, 2005 i bought a cd mixed by yoji which was really good never seen him live though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not seen him play a good set yet (in my humble opinion!) 170241[/snapback] i thought overall it were a worthwhile experiance ...just for the fact that the venue were so vast in size, there were so many thousands there, and well, the coming together of a few 'big guns' under one venue, for one night you were right about the Polysexual / GoodGreef Arena thing, not the best location for it (you had t'go missionary style across the main Godskitchen Arena t'go anywhere near it ) ...and like you said, the queue and lack of toilets or bar did not help ahhh, really? Captin Rich? ...it were different, ill give you that ...how easy were it t'remove it from his head at the end though? only seen Yoji Biomehanika play out 2 mebbe 3 times, all of which seem t'be in Liverpool ...GoodGreef's 3rd and maybe even 4th Birthday @ Nation last (2003, 2004) and @ Creamfields last year ...the first time were definately one of those 'what the?!...' moments ...but kicked ass al't same, especially with following on from Lab4 (live set) w00t) ... and like Tony said, the MFAHG Vol.2 CD (i assume thats the one he means ) he's done, is a worhwhile listen to ...espcially CD 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTW Members Spunkmonkey Posted April 15, 2005 CTW Members Share Posted April 15, 2005 ...bloody fuckwit didnt mean it like that 3am?! ...no, no, no, no, NO! that is not acceptable tony lad ...far too early and the Polysexual / GoodGreef room were miles better (for what were being played out, not size and location) than the main room whats on in Nottingham on 3rd May? ...its not the 'Ice' thing is it? dont tell me your'e going t'that? ...you'd really need t'have common sense knocked into you then boyo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
