April 17th - London: Elevation

 

Never out to exploit their patrons... This Good Friday, Elevation will set London's ravescene alight when they host the second "Payback" at The Roller Express in Edmonton, north London. Basically, Elevation will hold a ten-hour rave, on Good Friday, for only ten quid... The organiser pulls the plug on the rave.

 

 

 

April 18th - Skegness: The Pleasuredome

Responsible for some of the best parties in Lincolnshire for the past three years, two organisers are going to change raving in the east coast of England forever as their organisation, "Promised Land Promotions" hold the first Pleasuredome party in Skegness, Lincolnshire.

 

Promised Land Promotions [ Gary Bangham & Simon "Bogey" Wilkinson ] host their first party at the 1,800 capacity Festival Pavilion on Skegness seafront. The first Pleasuredome at the Pavilion turns out to be a sell-out, leaving hundreds of disgruntled ravers dissapointed after been turned away at the door.

 

 

 

April 20th - London: Spiral Tribe

The Spiral Tribe attempt to host a party in a disused Warehouse in Acton, west London when officers from the Metropolitan Police turn up in full riot gear and surround the building.

 

Guests from the party desperately try to barricade all the exits before the Police get in, but the Police come prepared and use a JCB digger and sledge hammers to demolish a side wall. The Police eventually storm the building and begin to assault the guests at the party. Afterwards, the Police force the guests to lie face down on the dirty warehouse floor.

 

During the Police-infused mayhem, a ITV reporter turns up on the scene but it so freaked out by what he sees, he leaves immediately. Over a hundred people from the party have to seek medical attention and a Newsletter printed by the tribe afterwards reveals all.

 

 

 

April 25th - Manchester: Life

Following the swift closure of The Pleasuredrome in Farnworth, the original promotions team from The Pleasurededrome [ DJ Welly, Jamie Scahill, Ken Grogan, John Waddicker and manager Adam Campbell ] search all over northern England to find a suitable venue for a crowd of over three thousand people.

 

The crew find a massive sixty thousand square foot warehouse in south-west Manchester which is more than adequate for their needs, so... The old Pleasuredome team move their operation from Farnworth near Bolton, Lancashire to Bowlers Leisure Centre in Traford Park, Manchester.

 

From out of the ashes of The Pleasuredrome, the crew create "Life".
