NINJAS - Subloaded 8th birthday - Bristol 29/09

[teamhobson]

You lot are just bad influences man, normally I just get high on life.

Edit - oh and Si... anytime you're in my city (I remember that shit) in future, stop by mine for an hour or 10 for a ganja lock-in

[dubluke]

That was a a lot of fun. My days it was hot in there though.

Was good to finally meet you man, I was a bit all over the fucking shop haha. Yeah seriously hot in there that's the most I've ever sweated in a club

I was pretty drunk when i saw you, so I might have been a bit:

'I RECOGNISE YOU! I HAVE SEEN YOUR FACE ON THE INTERNET AND NOW IN REAL LIFE.'

Apologies. I had an absolute stormer at this, really a stand out night for me this year.

No apologies needed mate!! Was great to meet you and I was already a bit of a state by then myself. We had a pretty jokes conversation from what I remember, I was mid getting a bomb out of my baggie while we were chatting and as you left you were like "Well I need to go find my girlfriend, you carry on with whatever you're doing with that bag....OH I SEE!!!"

[dubluke]

I've just read through the last two pages and have reached uncontrollable giggles.

Too many funny moments.

Time flieees! Lol at Magma "accidentally" having me IDed at the entrance. Bouncer just looked baffled at me: "But he said you were..." Oh ffs, Si, I'm not even sure what did you say, but in the end Zena's trick with a bank card seemed to have convince him and let me through.

Yeah, err, sorry about that. I think I thought he wasn't letting you in because you didn't have any, so I just started saying numbers in a sort of panic, then realised I was making the situation much worse and ran off.

But YES on the over 30s crew... glad to be on board. I think we were still looking pretty human when we got back to Paddington. High as fucking kites, but human nonetheless. That train journey just disappeared.. probably a good thing Zena fell/pretended to be asleep; I'm fairly sure we were talking utter bollocks. All I remember is playing with a piece of ribbon. Ribbon doesn't even entertain children. I'd fallen to the level of babies and cats.

Hah, one more memory of Kochari sitting in the window, looking like he's having a total bliss, then asking Si: "Can I have a toke from that spliff if I tell you a story...?"

Maaaaan, Kochari and his friend (was that Cosmic Dave?) floated in like two shamen there to see that everyone was going to make it back to the planet safely. At utter peace with this eerie certainty about being at peace too... I just wanted to shake one of them and say "TEACH ME!".

It was a pretty shit story though.

Luke - Happy MOTHERFUCKING Birthday, homenugget. Love you man. Train journey was jokes, beers with my brothers and the shit bands was a nice way of finding a midpoint between two vibes seeing as they'd only just got out... really glad you came along! Looking forward to deconstructing it all properly in Brixton tomorrow night. CHYYEEEAAAH

Riddles was an absolute star all night... genuine sincere "OHMYFUCKINGGODI'MHAVINGAGOODTIME" in his eyes for the whole time. Beautiful! Pleasure to deputise your skinning up at kay's!

And thanks to wubstep for filling in when my brain couldn't handle skinning up...

HobsonHobsonHobsonHobson... amazing. So fucking enterTAINING when you're ruined... I'm not even sure how many spliffs we burned down together in the end that night, but you're a wonderful man.

Great tunes all round in the flat tbh... enjoyed Jo's magical mystery tour through wub's record box. Nice rnb singalong session too. SNH's answer to Sonny and Cher only without all the marriage and domestic violence RIGHT HERE.

If I hear kay say "Badger! Behave! Naughty Badger!" on another night out I might actually soil myself... it's becoming a bit of a 4am catchphrase!

I've no idea why I'm so happy today, but I'm pretty sure it has to do with having one of the best party crews in the known universe. You lot are all legends. It's an honour every time.

I fucking love you man, I forgot about the RnB singalong, grime selection aside that might have been my favourite tune of the night

a bit of a wobble there

I'm not going into specifics, because it's not worth it; but that actually resulted in one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen in my entire adult life of raving. It was exactly what everyone needed. Thanks for being you.

seems the most appropriate!

Oh, and upon our arrival you tied that ribbon back on the motherfucking VEGAN FUDGE that Kay got me.

People do give a shit. All is good.

[magma]

my city

Oh you're claiming now, eh? You haven't even mastered the accent yet.

[kay]

Haha thread has been brilliant! Instantly brought back memories of the night! Sitting in a daylong seminar today was not on lol.

Oops about Cosmic JAKE!

I knew I was grinding my teeth hard but thought I'd managed to stop myself each time without it being that noticeable...

Looks like wub's box of wonders did a good job of filling in for him. although i think I missed most of it while on a chicken run. I did request Ride on Time at some point though!

Was probably just as well we didn't get balloons. But the balloon hunt was fairly jokes.

ahhh i welled up a bit reading this! again! i do love you si. was an amazing (if weird!) feeling to know everyone was there and being brought back to a good place with nothing but good vibes the rest of the night

hobson stop apologising! if anything you're owed an apology for getting nutted in the face still, nice battlescar there to show the wifeys

on the subject of headbutts, gotta give a huge shout out to badger for graciously taking defeat in our little pre-club burping competition. nothing but class round here.

yeah i remember trying to "mix" when we got back and just being utterly terrible, i think i only ended up there cos i was the least fucked of all of us... which was still pretty damn fucked. i accidentally mixed skream - burnin' up out of something really well tho and got a thumbs up and a woi off magma! i thought i was ON IT for a min there

OH MY GOD YES asking for KFC balloons was a masterstroke imo

[Kochari]

^"Room full of DJs, no-one can mix....drugs"

hobson stop apologising! if anything you're owed an apology for getting nutted in the face

Oh my gosh hahahaaaa, that was absurd

@Magma: My mate's name was Piers...Cosmic Jake is this old Sikh dude with a massive beard who owns a place called the Take Five Cafe...Really nice food and decent parties in the basement. He was just closing but we somehow found ourselves chilling inside with a cup of tea while he asked what my parents did...Still not sure how that one happened, but bloody glad it did!

"In Cosmic Jake's Take Five door
It's just this and nothing more"

[wolf89]

Apologies to whoever it was whose drink I spilt everywhere at subloaded when I was getting a bit excited about the grime and grabbed them and shook them by the shoulders whilst yelling.

I've actually also got a massive bruise from where I fell onto the side of the chair while getting that beer out the fridge for Luke and the legs slipped and I stacked it.. Didn't remotely feel it at the time though. Haha

[dubfordessert]

i think i got more drink spilt on me that night than all previous nights of my life combined. it was BRILLIANT. at one point i lost my shit to a tune and an entire full bottle of water flew out of my hand, hope i didn't hit anyone.

[wubstep]

Jamie that was class, it looked like you tried to dive into the fridge.

[wolf89]

I went down really hard I think. At the time it was just really funny.

[Johnlenham]

Whole room just burst out laughing! Was pretty funny.

Why is Salt and Pepper ringing a bell? I don't even know who they are haha

[Electric_Head]

Salt & Peppa = Let's talk about sexy baby.

[ch3]

Why is Salt and Pepper ringing a bell? I don't even know who they are haha

Nooooo! I'm sure this was dropped at some point... Also one of the best memories from Bloc.

YES haha its come back to me, I dug it out and then shouted to Simon about it and he sprinted across the room to put it on

Did 26 Basslines get played? God I must have been such a state I cant remember a whole lot after Changes DIstance Remix apart from putting my arm around various folk to keep myself upright Leveled out once we left thank god!

[magma]

Seeing that record was an EXCITING MOMENT for me.

Almost stole it.
