NYE Auckland

2 choices really, Slinky at the Town Hall or Lightespeed at the St James. Whos going to which event and whos forking out the dosh for both ?

yeah, i wont be in auckland...

Lightspeed. Nice'n'Urlich and Ian Pooley, Gee ringing in the new year with some wicked trance. We expect some new random armin mix of something we've never heard before Gee, no pressure :o)

Definetely Lightspeed. I refuse to be one of those sheep who goes to slinky after how overcrowded, hot and ill managed it was lat time.

Slinky seems to be shaping up pretty poo. There's something about Bevan at a large event which gives it such a wicked atmosphere, even if im gonna run away to the westend for a while. To everyone who reads this tho... GO WHERE YOUR MATES ARE.

Good call sarin. Im thinking tickets for both wouldnt go down too badly at this point.

yeah, well i know alot of people who are going to slinky, just coz not everyone in the dance scene posts on biggie it doesnt mean that slinkys gonna be 'pretty poo'.
im not a sheep and think slinky will be great, just coz it holds the same title as the last slinky event doesnt mean that its gonna be anything the same. Town hall will definatly not cause the same problems as alexandra for one!

Good call sarin. Im thinking tickets for both wouldnt go down too badly at this point.

yep, got it first time exodus =D

My comp is playin games with me ! I think its posessed !

heh itchy, dude, go ask anyone over seas they think we're a land full 'a' sheep anyways...So I'm following rank and going to slinky

See all you other sheep who are going there too

Fast paced music...something you can go nuts too...Quality Don't get me wrong funky house is cool and all...but for new years ? nah uh

nice one dance kid

i'll be at slinky

(not that anyone cares )

I'll be at Lightspeed.

Funky house + trance = all good

im going to both yay!!!!! yay!!! just incase one is better then theother i wont miss out this way =)

don't go to either...

blow $2000 and upset your girlfriend by going to mobile home in sydney!

that's what i'm doing ;oP

I will be in sydney....yay!



hope you all have a great time out there and you remember most of it so you can tell me how good it was.

if you're into house - i'd check out the velvet all stars thing - now -thats- a house lineup..

ian pooley is all good, don't get me wrong - but hes playing in the regent - can you say..... sweatbox? - and hes hanging on in nz for awhile afterwards, so no doubt we will see him again.

bennor - darren emmerson...mmm....dimitri from paris...mmm....eric morillo...mmmm

bastard.

darren emerson will be wicked, i saw him at the BDO, but i'm not sure how much i'll like eric morillo... i'm not really into house. (yeah i know darren emerson plays house too, so if they play similarly, i'm sure i'll enjoy eric too, and it is new years on bondi beach, so i'm sure i'll love it anyway!)

dpt- totally agree with you the velvet gigs just hit the spot dont they!

im taking michelle under my wing bennor =) so she wont be too mad im sure. exodus and i are going to buy her a lightspeed ticket for xmas so she can come to both so shooooooooosh!!

thanks, that's so nice of you! ;o)

bennor - if you're not really into house, mobile home ain't really the gig you should go to....

mmmm lightspeed. i want to see nice n urlich and n haines and pooley....
ya think i can con pete wardman to come across the road for a while?

or do they have a dirty trancer area?

i know!!! god im really getting into the season this year =) i only have to buy for 5 other ppl n e way. so it's no biggy =)

i know, but we decided to go in november 2000, and it was sasha last year, so we were expecting prog this year too...
and the lineup was announced long after we booked our flights...

is 'dirty trancer' a phrase you use, or did you somehow know that it's how my mates & i describe ourselves?

and no, they don't have a trance area, they have a breaks one :o/ and a chill out one... but for the first time i can remember, i'm not going to be anal about the music - 20,000 people on the beach will keep me happy... even without any trance :o)

the other thing is, when the dj is as good as they are, it doesn't actually matter what they're playing, i can still enjoy it even if i don't normally like that style of music...

dirty trancer is just a term i use...

may you be converted to house my son.

Lightspeed i think....should be a great night whatever ya do..

bumped to the top for Nanz to read.

nice one

hmmmm tough one

Hehehe cheers Harvey
Good to see that Lightspeed seems to be coming out on top.
