I am hoping that someone will be able to help me get in, i don't care how or whatever but i really want to reach this!
Should i get fake ID? been told a few times now they don't work.

Also just discovered that my uncle has a flat about 5 minutes from the end, so this is a must!

fake ids work at dodgy offlicences but thats about it. try and get someones id who you look like, that normally works (but revise all the details, they always ask you shit to check) Other than that i dont know mate

nah allow the fake ID.
I sympathise, so if your definately gona be there best I can do is blag your my cousin or some shit. Obviously you still might not get in!
I was 16 when I got my sisters mate to blag me into a jungle rave, they were the days.

ye if ur gonna do it u need a LEGIT ID which means borrowing one from someone who looks a lot like u.
my cousin who is 17 wants to come to this. he looks over 18 and they dont always check ID so he could get away with it. im nt sure whether to bring him tho, cos if they check ID he is fucked and thats just long.
they may do a few checks, but ive never been ID'd at the end. but i cant gurantee him gettin in so i just told him llow it.
u could try ur luck if ur just 5 mins down the road, but id prepare to get turfed realistically.

Yeah gotta echo everyone else here, borrow some of an older friend with similar looks. They never check the picture too closely..

if winston (the bouncer) recognises you he won't ID you, i should imagine this works the same way if you're with someone winston knows, maybe meet up with some forum regulars before and try and get in with them?

oh right

, my bad, i got into the end when i was 16 without getting ID'd, and i definitely didn't look 18 at the time, however, everyone else i know who has tried it has been pretty unsuccesful, in terms of fake ID advice i can't really offer anymore than people have already said

It's a tough spot... cos fake ID's are usually quite obviously fake. On the other hand, people using an ID of someone who looks like them can be equally shakey cos usually the similarities aren't THAT good. Unless it is a family member, not that many people look enough alike for it to pass.
I used to work the door at a club, and to be honest, I had nothing against kids trying to get in... but if anything happened, it would be my ass on the line. It didn't help that the IDs they would hand me were so far from being believable I HAD to turn them away. One kid who was 5'7 and 140lbs handed me an ID of a guy 6'1 and weighed 280. I mean, c'mon.
Good luck- the main advice I can offer is don't try to hard. Over-compensating a non-chalant demeanor was always the biggest giveaway, without even needing to look at the ID.

Most of the time they don't ID, reckon only way of not getting in is if you are unlucky and it is fairly early in the night. Does depend on luck though.

the end doesnt have the usual plastic peeps door staff. the bouncers there are pretty tough. Give it a go by all means.
Also, depends how old you look.
Send me some pictures of yourself...
