Awesome, took me back to the day, not a bad word.
Bowlers was as I remembered it from all those years ago...15 when I first set out on my raving quest. The line ups were awesome, the sound system immense, the arenas great and packed, the staff friendly, the prices of drinks cheap (£3.50 a bottle, yeah £3.50 only a quid dear than 10 years ago!) the air con was good, the lighting as usual with such an event tremendous & the ravers & raver bunnies ;) were spot on. A lot were newbies to the scene so had no idea why so sadly missed Mc Junior was given so much respect, that is until Mr Breeze then Mr Styles played tremendous sets with a lot of Juniors classics in there, I had tears & goose bumps when Pretty Green Eyes was played & I was on no drugs at all except pain killers for my bones. This may be the last event that I may be able to rave in style at so bust out the old skool footrock out of respect for Junior & all the crews. Thank you all the random's that called me a legend, shook my hand, hugged me & kissed me ;) If you were there & don't recognize my pic I was the raver in the bright orange Community Payback vest for a laugh, hardcore all night. Thank you all again for making what may be my last functional rave one to love and remember. Another reason that this event will go down in history too is it was as though a truce had been called between Liverpool & Manchester...in fact all gangs. There was no fights or attitude that some young bucks sometimes bring, maybe Junior was touching people like an angel watching over his scene, I don't know but it was one night there was magic & spirits in the air. All the best, peace & love to all, I hope I make a next event. Keep it real, keep it Hardcore d:->

Thank you Mr Breeze :) I have edited the review a bit as it dawned on me that you played shiz loads of his classics too. Junior will have been up @ the great gig in the sky showing Jim Morrison, Bob Marley, Lewis Armstrong, Joplin, Mercury, Tu Pac Shakur, Christopher Wallace, Kurt Cobain, Hendrdix & all the rest of the many greats that we were were dancing to his & his friends music :'( :'( :'') He may be gone but will never be forgotten, thank you all for an immense night to be treasured d:->
