Sunday means all the yuppie coke heads will have to find some where else to go on a Friday, while FWD can lead the way in bringing in new dj's and sounds while all the big boys like Skream and that can maintain an underground and international status.

very very smart

I think this is a great move. FWD has been a unique night and a Sunday night crowd & vibes is 100% progressing in the right direction.

And for the small element whingeing...I used to come from MANCHESTER at every opportunity when it was on a thursday because I loved it so, and got mates who did the same for Co-op on Sundays. So if you're not bothered enough to get there on a Sunday, don't even complain about it!! Just go to something else dubstep on a Fri/Sat - at least there's loads of options nowadays and you can!!

I have mixed feelings about the move!

Cons:
1. You were never stuck for something to do on a Friday night
2. My mates won't come to FWD on a sunday night if they can't get back or rinsed out from friday / saturday night
3. Travel links are always worse on Sunday nights

Pros
1. Gives them a chance to experiment
2. Likely to be full of more music lovers
3. Could be a cool thing to end the weekend
4. Metalheadz is also on a sunday and I sometimes head to that

I'll be OK with it if they start early. 7-12 would be good for me!

I am one of the lucky few who can travel home 24/7 living next to Gatwick but it still takes 1.5 hours if your lucky at that time of night.

i get up at 6:30 and am on my feet, constantly busy at work for usually 11 to 12 hours a day, no break. sure it's doable for lots of you, just completely not at all for me.

Loved Fwd on a Thursday - real music lovers

Will love Fwd on a Sunday - real music lovers

It might not suit everyone, but it's a good move, which means punters will have to plan their night out to Fwd.

wicked news, i'll certainly be making it down to a few more fwds again then..

used to rep on Thursday once or twice a month but stopped going on fridays cos of stupid ques and different vibes... Plus after making the 2 hour trip down and not getting into the Fwd warehouse party I just gave up on Fridays @ fwd...

Mondays are always hard at work so a few less hours sleep won't hurt..

Anyone know what time Mala will be on?

I ain't complaining because I don't have shit to do on Mondays at the moment, and I won't this summer. But I can understand why some people are pissed.

Big up FWD>>. Sunday Roast tings.

sunday roast in a pleasant boozer then fwd sounds pretty good

Would it be wrong to assume that fwd has been moved to a Sunday not for the good of the fans - but instead so that Geenius can keep a closer eye on his new weekly Friday Funky night at Club E3?

maybe I just mean Rinse then.

i doubt most of your typical fwd crowd would even have shoes n no denim in their wardrobe for incognito. Hark back 2 champagne garage days

i see where you're coming from but I don't think it a marketing/clash of rinse events thing.

Not just for the fans but also the artists- dubstep is so big now that most fwd residents will have bookings on fridays in far off places, which is a less likely occurence on sundays

LOL @ this.

Who do you think your typical FWD raver is?

I thought FWD>> was for sound heads and nothing else.
