March 14th - Cramlington: Nocturnal

Nocturnal returns to the same spot to give the northern crowd something extra, their second dose of outdoor hardcore mayhem with the "Allnight Circus" at Bassington Fields in Cramlington, Northumberland.

 

After the event, local TV station BBC North screens "Rave", a documentary which followed Nocturnal promoter Graham Auld around to give the general public a fly-on-the-wall view of the rave promotion process.

 

The programme features all the stages which are involved in the evolution of a rave, planning, meetings with the Police, security, site erection to the actual rave itself is shown - a fascinating watch.

 

 

 

March 20th - Bedford: Supernova

Another good thing comes to an end after a couple of years in the venue where they steadily built up their reputation and the place where they held their first serious run of events, Murray Beeston brings fourth the "end of a era" as ESP promotions hosts their last party at Milwaukees in Souldrop near Bedford, Bedfordshire.

 

In all fairness, the Supernova parties had become way too big for the small nine hundred capacity of the venue, the organisers would have to regularly have to turn away the same amount due to it's size.

 

Coupled with the positive start that ESP promotions is having down the road in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire with the Dreamscape parties, it is time to move on.

 

For the last night of the Supernova at the fun house, ESP Promotions gave the venue and the regular crowd a good send off by bringing in DJ Sy, DJ Phantasy, LTJ Bukem and DJ Pilgrim to play alongside their residents Dougal, Swan'e, Mastersafe and Clarkee.

 

 

 

March 27th - Bedford: Helter Skelter

A week later, the management of Milwaukees in Souldrop near Bedford, Bedfordshire send a devastating blow to Dave and Penny Prattley, also Helter Skelter's loyal following by terminating events at their venue.

 

In a meeting with the new owners of Milwaukees, the management would still have liked to have Helter Skelter holding raves at their venue, but any organisers would have to work exclusively for the new venue's management team and hand them over the nights takings.

 

In fact, Murray Beeston of ESP promotions was offered the same terms by the management, plus a little pay hike for the use of the venue!.

 

Meanwhile, In a hastly arranged newletter given out their guests at the club, Dave and Penny informs their members of the bad news but also tells them that all is not lost. Helter Skelter have got a "Plan B", they have come up with a new venue and will be hosting raves there next month!.

 

 

 

March 28th - Paris: Galactica

Relatively new and making an huge impression on the northern ravescene, Yorkshire promoters Galactica will take to the high road, bringing their gaggle of ravers on the trip of a lifetime - to a "Eurorave" in Paris, France.

 

Galactica will get to use The "Club Forest Hill - L'Aquaboulevard" [ a massive leisure complex in the south of Paris city ] to showcase what the English can do.

 

Galactica also get help with the event from native frenchman Laurent Garnier, who is taking care of the french side of public relations and has arranged a huge amount of media coverage via the local television channels and radio stations.

 

On the night, five thousand french ravers descended onto Galactica's first foray into Europe and made it a memorable night for the organisers.

 

Not to be outdone, the organisers had brought over 1,500 fresh bodies from the north of England to rave with the French, very good figures for your forth rave!.
