While its fresh in my memory does anyone know what the second to last tune skream played was, just before he put on "Night", as far as i can remember the drums where more 2 step than half step and it had vocals, i realise thats vague but then the whole weekend was vague.

Didn't see the set so this is a shot in the dark but I was told he played his remix of Geiom's 'Reminiscin'', could be that?

Out to KAMuck for 'All I Have Is Memories' and that South London Boroughs/Archangel bit. Oris was pretty sick, would have liked some garagey bits though, still. Boxcutter was very sick too, proper dancey/breaky stuff... Skull Disco, did I already mention them? I'll mention them again because they killed it- Roll with the Punches (wheeled by haiku I believe), Circling, that zed bias sleng ting style tune, Infinity is Now, Broken heart RMX and necta smashing it with loads of proper grime.

Out also to frebentos' cape wearing mate telling me he had a 'Box full of brainless' with my name on it, at about 9am on Saturday- I GOT THE BLING

The track is called 'Stay Devoted' featuring Earl16 from Trojan.

Gotta send a massive shout to the 'Monkey Mix' gang you know who you are.

And the quote of the weekend was
" I dont know what happend last night, but theres shit in my pants'

Man that dude is a fucking warrior, he's the reason I slept two hours in three days, worth it though ahaha...

Quick rundown of things, may need to add to this as I dont have the schedule here....

Skull Disco was the highlight of friday, deep and moody, big up the entire squad. The Skweee showcase saturday afternoon was unreal as well, played all the 7's (inc Mouth Everst...YES!) and a few tunes off skweee vol.1 and 2 (inc. Mesk Poppkumm...YEEEES!) I spent my time there wrapped in a shiny red cape and hoody screaming SKWEEE, hence I have no voice today. Oris jay I thoroughly enjoyed, especially as the dubluke takeover went so well...

Highlight of the entire weekend has got to be boxcutter, tnuc smashed it (although corps I reckonb quite a few of his tunes had a heavy garage vibe...utterly brilliant). Sunday, A guy called gerald playing a fucking ill jungle set, I havent really listened to much jungle but iwll be investigating this shit as soon as....IMMENSE.

Bass Junkie on Sunday night was also excellent, playing old school electro and italo, smashing it up. Then the acid set we caught on Sunday night corps, fucking amazing and who done it....fuckign Billy nasty..WHAT!! I woudlnt have went to see him but I caught the sound of squelchy 909's drifting out, went in and caught the best hour of Acid I have EVER seen...

Big ups the whole ravecave squad for battering through the weekend, Corpsey (especially as I convinced you to do lots of things you were adamant you wasnt gona do ahahah, hold tight the tequila squad) FC for rockign her Gold frock and gutties, Appleblim, Tom and the otehr bird yous were with, sorry, dont mind her name. Big up Wardy for bringin the shinyy red cape (i was a skweee wizard in THAT shit!) Out to the Irish guys that we absolutly raped at football 5am Sat morning, and the other Irish guy that coudlnt hit all of us on the balcony with teh ball, "HAHAAH SKYED IT BAWBAG"....

Ultimate weekend....

What was on when we did that tequila, man? Was acid house I think

I should have stayed out after that, I was a bit of a pussy the whole weekend really. Sunday I started getting into the swing of things, I could have done another messy day/night I think.

Was funny watching people collapsing on the lawn outside our window, and also seeing a guy dressed as Super Mario banging on the window of a chalet trying to get in lol... think it was one of necta/blims mates

Aye man, Billy nasty playing the acid, tequilas were pretty rough, but the Buckfast offsets that shit haha..

The amount of casualtys we saw was unbelievable, the guy lyign on the grass outside our chalet at 8pm FRIDAY NIGHT!! Writhing about and moaning to himself (stay away from ketamine kids). Those people tried to check out and the security stopped them, apparently there entire chalet was flooded in 4 inches of water and was completely destroyed. the police came down booked them and charged them 500 Euros...good entertainment as we were packing up....hahaha

YES! All about sunday chaos...I ended up sitting about at like 4am tryign to not open another beer as I was driving in the morning, watching wardy parade about with his pound tartan dress wrapped round him like a poncho telling me to look out for random jeeps and asking folk for Geordie Jumpers

On a side not, another highlight was going down the seafront to buy a pound dress for ma man wardy,

Me:here mate, any dresses for ap ound for my stunnign friend here?
SHOP: Try that rack over there, what size?
ME:WHAT!? Look at this guy, it doesnt matter what size...

The tartan thing was like a set of curtains, he should have bought the sexy evening number I was trying to get him buy him hahahaha

Anyone see Luke Vibert? I was rinsed so I couldn't fully get into it but it was fucking good- jungle and hardcore sounding unbelievable on that rig.

The sound systems in every room were wicked, especially in tech block.
