Yes, I remember that. Trying to keep to any sort of schedule or remembering anything at all was a difficulty. I wouldnt even hazard to try and organise a meetup this year with the increased venue size and capacity.

Unlikely, but check with the bloc guys...

I would imagine that bloc and butlins wouldnt take too kindly to any sort of rig being brought onto the site. Don't want to fuck the license up and there's tons of decent music on for the duration of the weekender, so it ain't really needed..

spot on. the are no sound systems on site outside of the venues. a licence can be too easy to fuck up.
some of the best electronic music on planet can be heard that weekend...

Jesus, you dont forget much do you?

Yeah I still jump into the forum now and again, but I guess I drifted back to minimal techno a lot and dubstep doesnt hold the same sway for me - but I do love the Bristol/Berlin axis (or whatever its called) so looking forward to seeing people like Joker, Appleblim, Peverelist, etc.

I am actually still living in Canada, but taking a trip back to Ireland for a couple of weeks for family reasons. But I thought seeing as how I was home I may as well hop across the water for a few nights... I had a huge FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) and just couldnt resist it.
I think the transvestite/gender experimentation phase is over, so you may not recognise me any more... I'll probably be in the bar at some ridiculously early hour on Monday morning just before the bus is due to leave... just keep an eye out for the bloke with all the shit black tattoos on his arms

Not like the days of the Dedbeat raves in Hemsby...the Ceephax Acid cassette tape party was pretty memorable

As bleak as Hemsby was, i'm gonna miss it....
