POSITIVES:
-all the groovy nutters out in force, having quite a few raindance virgins in tow. we all had a brilliant time. (even though we were all hanging from the weekend of wonky stag and hen do-age.)

-billy bunters hardcore set as usual brilliant.

-whoever was playing 4am (just after billy bunter) in the hardcore room was fucking amazing too, hard-bouncey-sketchy-madness-fun, fucking awesome!

-people shouting out to me (pappa smurf) all night and still being blue most of sunday sketching out the locals!

-the drum and bass room being moved to the back!


NEGATIVES:
-yet again the drum and bass dickheads, (not all but lots of) didnt realise the drum and bass room had been moved to the back (good move!) walked through there to try and get to the hard house, i had my hat stolen from me twice and my friend got mugged aswell. why do these fucking idiots have to ruin peoples nights again and again.

-the smoking area, what was with the scanning of fingers bullshit and why was it that tiny area across the road? the best raindance i've been to is when the whole tunnel has been shut off with all the stalls etc. bring that back! :-)

what do u expect if ur dressed up as a smurf , in a club with couple thousand drunk and buzzin people in?

Sketchy was on @ 5am, wicked set 2 fair play :D Stomped all way through! I absolutely loved Jenkins Lane!! OMG was amazing in there!

Cheers Bonnie for the tickets and all the other goodies :D Made my day opening the post hehe! Had a mega time, my 1st time @ Seone aswell, loved the club, smelt like Lakota mind but i will DEFFO come again! Nice to see some old faces aswell as new!

And to top it all off we had the most mega journey home on the bus! Hope you @ faye had a wicked time Dom and see ya @ the wedding next week!

yeah the bus ride home was funny as fuck with MC Caveman and his brother!

Mc Caveman: "HEY BUS DRIVER DO YOU WANT A LINE OF KETAMINE?!"

little kid at front of the coach shouts out: "He's already had two!"

brilliant!

i don't expect to get abuse/mugged for dressing up when i go out, nobody should! should be able to go out without having to worry about aggressive behaviour from dickhead wannabe gangsters!

I agree - I saw 2 girls have their backpacks fiddled with. Hated every single bouncer. Including the wanker who knocked me over as I was leaving. He was bundling out some loudmouth with no concern for anyone in his path. Smoking area - well I've given up now as a result. Thinking hard about whether I'll come back.

Right guys, we are dealing with all these issues that occcured last saturday night, but we need your help.

Can you please all email what happned to each of you to me @ bonnieparker90@hotmail.com

I say that after every Raindance recently, FORTUNATELY the good things about Raindance are still outweighing the pricks and aggression so I'll keep going, but if I get any agro or me or my mates get mugged again I wont continue going, which is a shame cause in general Raindance is brilliant!

can you please email me everything you have said, this is very important so we can raise these issues with securoty and teh venue

yeh agree with rivah-and-cat-knight to be honest!! dont moan about it if you wana go out dressed up like that id expect it if i was you pal!! joke about the mugging though.


oh and as for the above quote, not very funny really is it?? sounds well safe? tut.

soundz like the bus driver had a better nite than all of u lol!!!

To be honest, we want people to come to raindance dressed, up. Those people who dont like people dressing up etc then sorry but we dont want you at raindance. Raindance is where people can wear what they wnat to wear. And shouldnt feel like that they are gonna get picked on etc.

I had some bloke pull on the vail i was wearing because he thought it was funny. If you dont like randomness then sorry raindance isnt the place for you. We encourage people to dress up.

well said mate!!

Thank you.

Raindance isnt like every other event. we want people to be able to roam from arena to arena and not feel like they have watch what they wear or have to worry about they bags being robbed etc.

So please people dont stop dressing up we want fun happy people at raindance. If your there for dnb hardcore or breaks. Lets see the fun back in raving.
