April 30th - Melton Mowbray: Perception
On the same night as Universe's Tribal Gathering, the alleged dirty tricks continue as Chris Griffin holds his last ever Perception rave at Melton Airfield near Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire. In what would seem a normal occurance for a Perception event, some of the attractions wasn't present at the event.
Some of the "fully confirmed" DJ's didn't appear at the rave and to cap the night off, Perception's "Take Control" wasn't exactly a 100% legal event. The rave is futher thrown into controversary as officials from Melton borough council gain a court injunction to stop the event, a hour after it had started. Hundreds of ticket holders are left stranded outside the gates, unable to gain entrance to the event.
April 30th - London: Club Telepathy
After the successful tester event "Dance Tempo" at the same venue eariler this month...
Organisers Brett and Sting take a break from the warehouses, sports halls and open fields to step back into the busy London clubscene when they start to host their new weekly venture "Club Telepathy" at the Wax Club in Stratford, east London. Every event at Wax becomes busier than the last due to the promoters canniness for recruiting raw up-and-coming talent and fusing them with established names.

May 14th - Telford: Obsession
Obsession will also rejoin the weekly race when they open their new Venture "The Concept Club" at Dave Prattley's venue, The Old Cinema in Wellington, Telford.
Gideon Dawson will encounter the same logistical problems suffered by Helter Skelter previously.
With the derth of nightclubs in the midlands all vying for the same trade and customers, it is going to be very hard to compete with the established clubs. Also, the old cinema is situated in a area where Obsession are not accustomed to, therefore haven't got a following in that area. Obsession's Concept club lasts less than a month due to poor attendance.
May 15th - Cambridge: Eclipse
Stuart and Dave Banks' rave organisation has come a very long way as they celebrate three years at the Corn Exchange in Cambridge.
In a memorable three year period for them, Groove II has hosted thirty-three events in their home venue at the Corn Exchange. Also, late last year they successfully held the second outdoor Dance Festival at Braham Farm in Ely, Cambridgeshire. In one of the busiest nights that Cambridge has ever seen, the Banks brothers celebrate their third anniversary.
