of Core Addicts and Nose & Lips presents: The Birt
Well i'm going to try and give a good review of Core Addicts and Nose & Lips presents: The Birth, however when it comes to reviews i am absolutely shockingly bad!!

Anyway, I'd been eyeing up this event a few weeks before it happening but due to the distance and cash flow issues i hadn't set my sights on going. However, on the Wednesday evening my boyfriend told me him and his sister were thinking of going "Am i up for it?". well of course I was!!! A absolute awesome bargin of a door fee of £3 and £5 towards petrol???? Spot on!

So there I am with only 2 days to get excited. Thing what striked me as odd is i dont get this excited over large events let alone a "very small new night 2 hrs drive away that will be finished by 4am". I was yet to be pleasantly surprised.

In true style me and my 3 raving guys (Morgan, Nik and Gav) set off an hour later than scheduled with various stops in-between. I find the journey there is half the fun listening to cheesy tunes on the radio and making joke at one another. we arrived at about 11:30, parked up and headed across the town center to where we could hear hardcore coming from.

Before we even walked through the door we could tell it was going to be a good night!! Everyone was so welcoming and happy and the vibe was very bouncy. I tried not to think I was only going to be there for 4 hours.

Anyway, I paid my £3 (to the very unimpressed lady handing over a 20-note!) and walked in. The Sound Lounge only consisted of 1 room, with a small dance floor, a small bar and a small seated area. The sound system was by all account up to standards from where I was standing. As I was stood between the dance floor and the way out I kept seeing old faces, new faces and faces i recognized from the Yellow Site. I must of spent a good 45 minutes just chatting to random people. 2 awesome people I got to meet, and hope i see again very soon, are Sid P and Becca Boo!! What a lovely kind couple they are, and barmy too!!

I decided it was time to have a stomp. I was half expecting my ears drums to suffer a bashing as smaller events dont always have a sound system thats capable of delivery the right levels to a small room. The sound was perfect wherever i was located in this club!!

In my opinion Dj Skyva and MC Philma did an absolutely cracking job!! I believe they were on not long after I arrive and i could not stop bouncing even when people were trying to talk to me. it just created such an breathtaking atmosphere!! The mian reason I had gone to this night was to see Clodhopper play – it had been too long since I stomped to one of her sets and it was about time I did. Needless to say she didn’t let me down when she stepped up to the decks after Skyva. It wasn’t the usual set im used to from clo but she didn’t fail to deliver a few surprises into her set! As always awesome job!

I’m never any good at remembering who played what set and who mc-d to who as I just enjoy the moments, only finding out who it was AFTER the sets!!

It was a bit below par that JBC’s set got cut short, but it wasn’t all-bad. It could have been worse, we could have not heard him at all!! The finishing early didn’t bother me at all… we know for a FACT it will come back bigger and better next time!!

Becca Boo and Sid P, Chris Smith and the crew did everyone to make myself and others I know feel welcomed and valued! Always there for a mashed-chat or to talk business, it was a very warm and friendly vibe. I don’t have any complaints except we need some crazy décor next time!! you know im happy to help anytime!!

Not one person I spoke to that night didn’t comment on the good feeling. Althought I was only there for 4 hours I caught up with some old faces and left with a big grin on my face!! 5 days on I am still smiling over how much of a good night I had!

I’d choose to do this event all over again, anytime over a big Slammin’ Vinyl get up!!

Top Marks and thanks for a fuking wicked wicked memory!!
