Just get to Camp D sharpish. Not sure what time certain folk are heading over to other rooms but no doubt youll find out from someone else here or at Camp DAvid

cant see the arena been to chuffed about that one ha , ive seen them saying "best night in boro this year" just about the mediocore drum and bass DJ set thats on next week
can see it instantly selling out like , sold out the academy fairly early when i seen them last year and that holds a stupid amount of people

ah SHIT i just realised this is same day we all have a date with a canadian guy who wears sunglasses at night

good night last night, shame about the weather
boy 8-bit has got some serious mixing skills
North East nights - fapesta - 2008-03-22 23:13:50
Yep. His mixing was pretty tight. But I think a lot of the tunes that Dave 8-Bit played we're quite rinsed out, blogged and over hyped.
I prefer 'Fake Blood'.
;)
North East nights - steve - 2008-03-22 23:21:53
oh nice shit you did with andrea doria in camp d like. was tempted to play that last tuesday
North East nights - fapesta - 2008-03-22 23:29:35
Cheers Steve! Nice one.
I was pretty hammered like, but I can still remember the highlight of the night being Cooper unplugging the decks while I was in the middle of mixing. What a guy!
North East nights - steve - 2008-03-22 23:32:43
whay a gay you mean haha. yeh he didnt do you any favours there. and when i mixed some vinyl in he dropped the record sleeve onto the deck making the needle skip right back to the start
North East nights - fapesta - 2008-03-22 23:54:07
,,, not to mention the 2 glasses of wine he knocked over and when his midi leeds got tangled up with the arm of the deck, scratching the needle violently across the record! ha, ha. He's like a one man riot! Had a proper laugh like.
we all ended up at at party somewhere in Longbenton, Dave 8-bit came back with us an left about 6 in the morning after failing a number of times to score with the bird who's house it was, wearing a comedy jesters hat for some reason?
I got home at half 1 this afternoon. Lost my phone, keys, coat and only had 1 sock on. Took me 15 minutes to buy a packet of fags at the Metro station I was that fucked.
Ruff dosn't even start to describe how I'm feeling right now dude. Pretty much just feel like walking into the sea.
North East nights - steve - 2008-03-22 23:56:19
i always miss afterparties, its so dissapointing
yeh i thought it was a perfect moment in my life when that lass threw a cap and mike but it clattered the wine glass instead
North East nights - bobbydazzla - 2008-03-23 18:48:55
8 Bit was tight in the mix like. fo sho.
North East nights - Geoff Leopard - 2008-03-24 16:07:05
I can think of one person who wasn't (and who actually requested to be taken off!)
North East nights - steve - 2008-03-24 16:15:32
haha, i didnt notice

I love it how these stories of comedy errors get inflated for public viewing. :D
The (single) wine glass that got smashed luckily had nothing in and yes 'that lass' was the cause of said accident throwing clothes at me. That girl is a walking car crash / trainwreck / riot waiting to happen once every hour. Invite that girl to any party and something memorable will happen, guaranteed every time.
Yes I admit unplugging the power to a turntable but that wasnt noticeable really...it was more just like a breakdown :D
And the arm incident. Fapesta didnt warn me he may not make it back from the bar in time to put his next track on, and while I was in the booth in an utterly battered state getting my groove on I noticed there wasnt long left so got steve to put another track on while I powered laptop back up and sorted the wires out. It was a totally perfect screetch when the arm flew across that record though, couldnt have done that again if I tried.
All in all, in the space of 5 hours 2 incidents is good going. No fires, blood, fighting, falling over or anything like that. And cans of red stripe and wine were involved. Playing 2 sets for more than 3 hours was good too.
Sorry I didnt play bill cosby steve, I know youre still well gutted about that. I just forgot :)

But that scratch was truely 1 in a million.
