the only thing i have from back then, and now btw, with irish clubbing, is the total lack of variation in music. its been house, trance & techno at the helm for the better part of 22 years now, maybe?
i know there have been the odd club here and there catering for drum n bass or dubstep (these days) but thats it really. stale comes to mind when i think of those 3 genres above now, especially the way trance went from 97 onwards.
.

I can recall the top floor of the Asylum on occasion playing 'hardcore' & early type's of gabba/jungle etc.

I stopped going to the ormonde when club fm took over, only went back twice when they where there, TDV and tall paul and the last night. I remember being a bit pissed off with that night as well. half the DJ's that where down to play didn't (MW, Thyme) and the one's that did i didn't like:mad: still don't. and used to hate people thinking the tapes of that night was what the ormonde sounded like:mad:. ah sure...........

heres a tape (well one side of it anyway) that survived that i got one night in the ormond, girl was going around handing out these out of a back pack, had 'A is for apple' on one side & 'E is for everything' on the other, not live or anything but still good to listen to,

just noticed there, that the "greatest book ever written" is no longer a sticky, and will ultimately fade into recent history. let me be the 1st to wish it well on its journey into the unknown, and say fair well little friend, we will miss you :D:D

Why dont you stick a link to it in your signature sean, seeing as you soared up to be the most frequent poster on the old one, one would imagine you will continue that trend & the link to the old thread will be on almost every page of this one.
