Made it along for my first FWD............I take it it's not always THAT busy?

Didn't stay for too long but had a good night anyways!

Looking forward to going again, maybe even with some room to move next time ;)

Killer night. All participants - crowd, DJs, MCs, etc - were on top form. Can't remember the last time I left a club with so many sick tunes stuck in my head...

exactly!

although i had plenty of space to skank during the first half of D-Bridge's set...which was nice...

and i was still moving as much as i could (without hurting/annoying anyone around me) during Martyn's set...

Fucking awesome night!

Ended up getting there real early but too late for Rough Trade. Ate tasty (but expensive and not filling) Vietnamese food, waited in Bar Music Hall till the queue started at about 8.20. By 9 it'd stretched past the corner I think, couldn't see. Probably the busiest I've seen it since the last night before the smoking ban. 3rd person in! :D:

D-Bridge's set was sooooo varied, kept it interesting and vibes stayed good throughout. Looking FWD to seeing him there more!

Martyn's set was completely :o TBH, I'd expected a quieter set, so this was spectacularly awesome! Just so good! I thought it was funny/odd that it wasn't stupidly rammed in front, all the sardines were in the back half of the dancefloor. Still, surprised I didn't headbutt or damage anyone, especially Blackdown when he was right behind me lol. Only downside to the set was the excessive amount of flash photography.

Chilled in the bar area for the first half of Kode9's set, then jumped in for a bit of jungle boogieing. Almost missed my train coz he started on the dirty dubstep business towards the end!

Someone(s) near the front kept farting the whole bloody night though!

Yeah, that's why they only ever use women in ads for bloatedness/trapped wind. It's all that ladylike holding-it-in business.

While we're on the subject, do the massive subs and bass make anyone else burp a lot?

i honestly don't think the lack of movement was in any way a reflection of the level of enjoyment... i think the tunes were so deep all night that everyone was busy processing them!!

i thought the vibes were great.
i'm takin this show on the road.
