DJ-ing and music-making. All the knob-twiddling and scratching you can handle, in or out of the bedroom.

Just was told that he is 'free'...>?

Is this a dream or reality?

Served 4 months in the end, somewhat better than the 4 years he was sentenced to...mental considering he only had a smallish amount of skunk on him, but they don't mess in Dubai, a crumb of weed can you sentenced to the minimum four years, fuck visiting there for a holiday.

BBC says he served 10 months (dunno if they're including time on remand in that).

But yeah, the drug laws there are mind-boggling. There have been people convicted because they had a couple of poppy seeds from a cheese and tomato bun in their clothing FFS. People with prescription drugs such as co-codamol have also been jailed.

Oh, and if they find any illicit substances in any of your blood or urine samples, they'll do you for possession. :wacko:

Yea it was definitely longer than four months!

He did get done for porn as well. Not sure if it was on his laptop, or dvds or mags, but if it's the latter then there really is no excuse for taking that abroad somewhere like that.

I only hope that his time inside caused him to reflect on his poor selection of music in recent years :D

I've always throught the rider's selections were better then all the other mainstream dnb tards. I've been to a few nights where he's been on one of those dull as fuck andy c, hazard, hype, mickey finn line-ups and he's rinsed out some proper hard stuff with intresting breakbeats.

At least they didn't want him to be stoned for it.

Beware of bringing pictures of women's ankles to Dubai...

Actually, I was phoned by a recruitment agency today asking if I fancied this job in Dubai, £45k tax free etc. Ummmm, no. I know from people who have been there that Dubai is actually one of the more liberal and cosmopolitan Islamic countries - but I'm not going to set foot in the place until they get rid of these ridiculous drug laws. People have been jailed because their clothes had one poppy seed on them from a cheese roll eaten at Heathrow FFS.

2.16g is a pretty hefty amount of cannabis to be trying to smuggle into ANY country, forgetful though he may have been.

Fab+GR were the best of a pretty high profile lineup when I saw them in Manchester Academy a few years ago (Step Back, IIRC). Rinsed it indeed.

In the radio1 interview video I watched he was like "it was only enough for a spliff", 2.16g in one spliff? :?

If you're rolling pure that sounds about right to me.
