That'd explain the fiver entrance then
its also all about getting good security

and there are bare maintenance costs for a soundsystem to run parties
Er, I was joking. Been involved in setting up a few before, although there were no name dj's and we did it mostly on donations. Always handy to have a few dealers onboard if the party faithful are just chucking their coppers in the jar

apologies that came off humourless. it wasnt meant to be funny, but it wasnt meant to be any kind of accusation or anything. sorry

Unfortunately yes, the penalties for club and pub license holders will mean this will as well enforced as it is in Ireland, Scotland, USA etc etc.

To be honest if any British rappers come up 2 me and extinguish my spliff I will have to diminish their puny couplets with pure unadulterated bass! ps Do you think I could get in trouble for being called dubfarma?

aye, no owner in his right mind is gonna risk the 50 grand fine you get, you never know when one of the undercover smoke police are lurking.anyway look on the bright side, standing outside for a cigarette opens up a whole other social scene.

btw can i come to this squat party?

as you might have guessed not much by the way of underground music events go on in rural wales, so basically ive been playing dubstep at free parties/raves/'informal' festivals for almost 2 years now. for a crowd who don't know what dubstep is everyone always gets proper stompin! its a good look i love free parties more than playing in clubs apart from soundsystem things but hey its like when you eat off a campfire, wall's sossies taste fuckin lovely dont they?? DONT THEY??? but theyr not actually lovely so you see my point. how have i digressed this much
*considers deleting and starting again but decides against it for comedy's sake

so yeah free parties + dubstep = luvverly

but to steppas in wales - get to blue rock festival near crymych this summer, last year was completely live and MASSSHHHHHED UP, getting really big now too, will be quite a major event for wales at least in a couple of years. me and a few mates have almost managed to blag our way to having our own tent there this year so i'll be smashing out the bass pressure and dub vibes most of the weekend

keep your eyes peeled, ill post some info on it in Events section when it comes along

Brighton's still big on K'd up twats unfortunately - not the best of social events

Me: So how you doing?

K-head: Mwurmn...ooff..maspen...bwah (stares with rolling eyes at wall)...mahwoof..baaah

Me: That's nice dear

Thankfully most of the acid trance is too far away to bother with. Still at least we don't have crackheads on the rob, so it could be worse

Can't beat a bit of 303 through boss bass overdrive though.

Ahhhh, I miss this sound. Can do without the crackheads, though.

This is fucking exciting.

I might be away that week, but if I'm not, I am all over it.

Cracking idea.

Thats exactly what I´m lookin for.
Actually I was never a friend of this club sort of thing (different reasons).
Seeing no chance to see such a thing happen over here, I think it will be up on me

Clubs are absolute shite in Vancouver and generally most everywhere in Canada Ive found (one or two in Montreal or TO). Dubstep in Vancouver is pretty much strictly a warehouse and studio situatiion with the very occasional gig at the one decent club in town. Nice thing about Vancity "afterhours" is the crowd is 99% amazing due to it being all word of mouth. Plus Dubstep just feels better in a weird dark dungeon with tags everywhere, one red light and tons of people going berserk.
