BANG FACE 61 - Rave The Whale - Fri 14th Nov 08

[varntvar]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure someone nicked my wallet last night. Fairly sure it was securely tucked in my back pocket which makes me think there was a pickpocket poo!
But hey dev/null fucking RULES so that's ok. Lesson learnt, wallet goes in the bag in the cloakroom next time.

[SEIZMIC]

Awesome night, wicked vibes all round..

Big thanks to St Acid for both of the sets, really really enjoyed them, pure crazyness in Room 2 with the cage goin from one side of the room to the other with people in it lol..

Plastician was fantastic, some big basslines there, also really enjoyed Ed Cox, Smash TV and 2 Bad Mice.. Top Stuff!!

[boki]

Wow, that was quite some banger - don't think I sat down for any more than about half an hour over the course of the whole night!

[iainito]

WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!....................... how bloody amazin what that?!!! worth the traveling by far! dev/null gave an awesome set, but i was expecting that anyway :p big up to the hard crew and st.acid (caught you for second). was nice to be recognized after coming from far away!

THANK YOU BANG FACE!!!!!!!!!

[ThE99THReDBallooN]

that was one of the best bangs in a while, crazy stuff haha

[laurennoodles]

what a night indeed. depsite throwing up twice and being basically sober the whole night had a brilliant time!
loads of people there good seeing you all! Plastician - oh god it was so good. so so good. and finally played my first game of electrowerkz pool (although we didn't finish cause din didn't have the attention span!)

(although we didn't finish cause din didn't have the attention span!)

What a night that was !!! My fave bangface yet

Absolutely amazing, 2 Bad Mice, Deep Blue and the Planet Mu dj playing hardcore were my top sets, DevNull was sick too but i had to go chill out about half way through his set

Oh yeah, not forgetting Ed Cox, absolutely mental

All round brilliant night

Also, how huge does next month look?!

See you all there ...

[buzzingtalk]

wicked night! was lots of fun, annoyed that my soundcard decided to not work and then once it was sorted, 30 mins later i get told to turn off my set by security, then told to play till 5:30 by another security really screwed up my flow.

har! im going through my pics just now and couldnt stop laughing...you, me, laura, otto and nastie doing bad things in that back room kept me laughing all weekend! if bristol is anything like friday night then they wont be ready for it!

[lahmjpowder]

Another stomper.

Bloody impressed with Ed Cox, Plastician was well good as was Dev/Null. Ofcourse 2 bad mice lived up to expectations.

Who was the fella in the 2nd room who was on after planet mu? Danced through the whole set

[ThE99THReDBallooN]

great to see everyone again!
daves bday cake was good stuff jem!!
good to see baldmosher for the first time aswell & cunningstunt me thinks
ed cox & dev/null were fantastic & dj planet mu was such a great start to the night
thank you to boki for ravin for most of the night with me! good to see ya mate

[CunningStunt]

I had a brilliant time on Friday and it was really good to meet you all and put faces to names
Even worth the 4hr delayed train journey home at 7am
Although entertaining I'm still not sure what to make of Nastie and the Otto Von Schirach set. I feel like my mind has been slightly warped in some way!

[baldmosher]

Excellent. Thoroughly excellent. I really wished it was time to leave at least three times during the night and I thought "fuck this, need to sit down" but I just changed down a gear and was back up to speed within 45 mins each time

Must say that I appreciated the genius timings of BF sets more than ever, I was really really looking forward to Hidden but stayed downstairs for 20 mins then by the time I came back up he was a bit shit, thankfully only 20 mins more to wait for Dev/Null, who was outstanding. I can't honestly say for sure it was Dev/Null, or Schirach, but you get my point. 20 min changeovers ftw!

Met two random guys on train who were down for Fabric, they were right, Plastician was sick, Otto & Ed Cox were.... entertaining... (thought Cox was excellent fun as well though) and whoever was downstairs around 2am was absolutely mental good.

I'm in two minds about 12th though. My sensible side says "no" but my heart says "YES YOU STUPID MOTHERFUCKER"

Do iiiiiit... best looking BF lineup for months, I reckon, plus it's the Christmas party. It's going to be beautiful Bangvibes all round!

Good to meet you two on Friday, incidentally!

[Saint Acid]

What actually happened with the cage(s) on the middle floor?

I heard reports of them moving across the room with people in them.

Then came in a saw a mangled pile of metal taped off by security!

[Magma]

That's happened before, but security have never stepped in in the past, so I guess it just got a bit out of control. It is hilarious looking back from the front of room two to see caged ravers slowly inching their way across the floor though!

Security seemed to have a busy night... I hope the guy I saw being led off the dancefloor around 4.30 was ok in the end, he didn't look too healthy/happy.

[laurennoodles]

Yeah people were dancing in the cages which were moving across the dancefloor due to either a)extemely vigorous dancing or b)people pulling them along.
The moving cages was funny, but the toppling cages wasn't, one guy was shaking this cage with a girl in so hard she was bashing against the sides and looked like it was about to fall, and someone else pushed one super hard causing it to whack into me which a)hurt and b) ruined my dance

lots of a's and b's

[ThE99THReDBallooN]

the cages were well funny, altho i nearly got squashed when the security put it bk in the corner.
how funny but ultimatley stupid is the new smoking area!!!
i laughed my ass off when i looked in and saw a restaurant, waving to some bemused people eating was v.funny.
really wanna go to the crimbo one but ahhhhh moneyyyy

[SoloStrike]

The smoking area's been changed again? I liked it best when it was the courtyard style area with the planes. Electrowerkz is mental, so big with so many rooms and passages all over the shop. I wonder what it was built for.

yeah that was the ebst one, now its prob the size of a shed
the courtyard thing is now a restaurant, that place must be sound-proofed to fuck not hear anything from bf

[SoloStrike]

It's a restaurant?! How the fuck does that even work, last time I was in that bit I'm sure the roof was partially exposed to the sky. Must be severe rebuilding, can't imagine people shivering away in the wintery cold waiting for their starters listening to the muffled sound of jungle and ravehorns!
