[08cadorna]

"some newspapers have called acid house music a sinister and evil cult wich lure young people into drug taking"

[WONDERHEART929]

F$%???& LMAO LOL!!!!!!! ITS A CULT INNIT

[0bananaskin0]

Silly old ignorant bird had to mention the boozer... single most abused drug in the world = alcohol.

[sewitt60]

Looool! Biggest hype? The Hacienda had the minimal of trouble until it got squeezed by the police one side, the gangs the other. The Hac was a place to go to dance, I never took drugs myself, but I was pissed when I got in there! Used to bring little minitures in. Oh happy days There's fuck all all now except a re-hash of those days. Those being interviewed hadn't a fucking clue. Pump it up..Hacienda!!!

[ramejkisp]

Haha - Acid House Correspondent! Looks like he's spent a long weekend sampling all the pleasures the scene had to offer! Suprised he made into work..............

[psypants]

@ramejkisp what?! he looks like he's never touched a drug, or the scene, in his life!!!

[ramejkisp]

Whats more sinister? A load of hippy ravers fucked on ecstacy and weed or a gang of skinhead thugs on cocaine and booze?

[RhymerTheD]

THE LADY IN BLUE... 0:25 SHES SOOOOO RIGHT AND SOOOO COOL, NOT LIKE HER FRIEND.... FLASHING LIGHTS, EFFECT THE BRAIN... SUCH A PARTY POOPA!!!

[Mayhemdog]

drugs , sex. sensation . money , drug barons , pushers , peddlars. lol

[brightonking69]

My god! Where are the reporters. If you go to Vauxhall's gay scene everyones on either G or Ketamine - or stabbing each other.

Talk about getting it wrong! so wrong.

[brightonking69]

Id much rather an acid or an E compared to ketamine and G any day! The latter is all over Vauxhall these days. Shameful

Very funny clip though!!!

[matrags]

There were morons on the streets then, There are morons on the streets now. Buy guns people.

[charleyboy74]

[LordDanofLondon]

This is why I love youtube..

Madness!

10/10

[slideshowrod]

Government in bed with the drinks industry, that's basically why they hated it - everyone was off the booze!

[photonprojector]

And now after the criminal justice act stopping us dancing we have kids stabbing and shooting eachother and exploding on the tube.

The old bill now wish all they had to deal with was someone who wouldnt stop dancing! wankers

[m00zic]

"The message is certainly getting across" conservative nightmare

[raymondo1992]

Acieeedd

[rebelbhoy1888]

[rebelbhoy1888]

@cuntylishus

Dominating fuckall.

[plotyourdownfall]

woah, big shocker.

drugs have been part of the music scene, like, forever.

heck, even the old impressionist artist movement of the late 1800`s had it`s fair share of absynth and alcohol addicts.

[pme96]

Is the guy at 0.14 wearing those glasses for a bet?

[photonprojector]

@pme96 He must have great eyes to be able to see through them

[00wrongun]

lol how long have drugs been around

[jepposonn]

PEOPLE OF ALL NATIONS DANCING TOGETHER.

[manicbassa]

yet more people die from drinking each year! Still as long as the government get tzxes eh?

[Bhodisatvas]

I think that old biddy must be on drugs to wear a wig like that!!

[billiesrus]

haha

[syntonfenix]

british acid

[drkmid]

Those brit women are hilarious. Reminds me of Monty Python haha.

[Soarhead77]

@drkmid That occurred to me too, when I looked at this prompted by a Tweet. Mrs Premise and Mrs Conclusion personfied.

[AdmiralBoom76]

Well yeah, it was all about drugs, crazy dancing and the music! So what. What a bunch of nobs.

[andrewt008]

theres nowt wrong wi "frenzied dancin"!

[alidonli]

dick-ted talking about acid house hype within the music scene. it wasn't part of the music scene. once it was, that's how they contained it. especially with the help of lackies like himself. the criminal justice bill then proceeded to rip the arse out of it. the box in the corner must go.

[teltronicz]

newspaper bloke is a dickhead

[rudinyo100]

Them old women are quality

[djdippa1]

10:00 should have gone to speck savers

[alyraver]

LMAO!!

[djrise0]

The media is a joke.

[joeasc]

fuck the system

[Bobrinsky]

Always nice to hear the opinion of real experts with first hand experience of the phenomenon they're discussing.

With all these years hindsight it seems like a sketch from a comedy programme, not something that would be allowed on a news programme.

[funkcutter]

a lot of money involved... for acid ted anyway

[cwegers1]

'drugs, sex ,sensation' , well..........yep.

[indyskies46]

astonishing and hilarious

[freepartysoundsystem]

@indyskies46

couldnt have put it better my self

[arsewipe24]

the old dears are great and that newspaper man is a prick

[ganjarat]

all them lights flashing dont do u any good does it??

hahahahahahaha wota joke!

[chris99140]

@ganjarat

those wigs don't do them any good either, my good good.

[HarryHazHutchins]

ahahaha this is so funny. yeh man, it shud b a religion.

[kobibrian]

this is rediculous!

[napalmenema1]

Ha ha what the fuck?! The scary thing is people are still being told what to think by newspapers today

[iguanna41]

@napalmenema1 The Sun is the worst newspaper ever! how many times have they been sued for slander & false accusations?

[Rossypossy131277]

These people dont have a clue, it was all about the love and feeling for the music, these raves brought everyone together, it wasn't just about the drugs. In my opinion they are sadly missed, dance music is far too comercial now.

[zoonieloony]

Hahaha how funny, total damnation for us all!! :D

[zerostoner]

lol...acid is great :P

[Dg00nwid]

loving the teacosy on the old girls head. Hardcore tea lady!

[NickLynch2389]

blonde at 32 seconds is blatently a pill head!!! LOOK AT THE EYES AHAHAA

[sewitt60]

I agree Nick, she was in denial! Accccciiiidddddd!

[jumpersforgoalposts]

I hope the guy with the glasses had a change of heart and went out raving. He could do with a bit of acid house

[boovy32]

The 2 old lady's have just got back from Amnesia still off their face 6 in morn

[xxxKINGFROGxxx]

0:29, the old lady on the right is deffinatly wearing a wig. i'm serious!

[growguyuk]

lol..i was 7 when this was on.... I can remember a cook report about the rave scene too..

[UncleFeedle]

Reminds me of the Monty Python 'mouse problem' sketch!

[missybest77]

Hehehehe

[cajjer]

Ffs, Brass Eye or what?

[bencebenson]

fantastic!!

[citadelofchaos]

This was the fuckin' reason we went to raves , to get away from freaks like these, twas a break from the norm,,,,THEY DRIVE YER MAD DUN' THEY ,,, lol lol

[englishjames007]

this cheered me up.....haha

[thewotsit]

They even had a bleedin acid house correspondant back then. What a toss pot.

[BrutalDeluxe80]

you made me laugh,sunbeam!

i love ya!

[tallcedarsovlebanon]

drive you mad dun they

[boobaliz]

come on it is normal ... what would u expect from an interview made in 88 ??? Grandmother's responding 'it is all about love, mind and soooul bro' !?

[mononokehime316uk]

"Where do you find that out" "That was in the paper" Ill give even money on the Sun but close behind The Daily Mail.

[Flatline98]

Sad thing is that very little has changed. Sensationalist media scumbags still demonise the rave scene. The cops are always trying to find reasons to shut raves down. And the general public is as ignorant as ever. It's probably always going to be like that.

[ManUtdRuleEurope]

Yea you are right mate. Cops raided a rave I went to the other week. Have they got nothing better to do with themselves??

[Flatline98]

A few months back there was a warehouse rave round the corner from the biggest police station in Sheffield. The cops couldn't do anything about it cos the only way in was through a reinforced steel door. They just stood around scratching their heads. Funniest shit I've seen in a while. To be fair to the Sheffield police, they don't really bother shutting down raves unless they're in a built up area. Usually they just turn up early on in the night and tell us when to be gone by the next day.

[ManUtdRuleEurope]

Lol. Sounds about right. That night they raided that rave I went to, my mate got arrested for offering a copper some MDMA lmao.

[nishlord]

Her in the raincoat looks like she rather fancies a go on this Acid House thing.

[droptopsixfo]

LOL @ the old misses

[shazlouie]

yeah we didn`t want to be NORMAL! we waited a lifetime for this x

[adrenobrit]

I agree! Those ol' girls are classic!! Reminds me of my East London days. "Them lights drive you mad dun they?!"

[DJPaddy643]

THANK GOD FOR ACID HOUSE!

[YesheGyatso]

lol at the interviews funny stuff!

[guiltyascharged100]

And this is what made the movement special,nobody knew what the fuck it was about.

[moonkat303]

Its like a Brasseye episode!

[dobz28]

fuckin wierdos!!!

[Jaoric]

fucking BBC dickheads

[gayrolf]

Was the bloke at the start wearing those glasses for a bet ?

[johnvile]

Sadly those of us that wear glasses all have a picture tucked away somewhere of us in something similar. So F***ing embarrassing. The 80's was the the worst decade 4 glasses design ever.

[gayrolf]

Good job i didn't go short-sighted until the 90s then !!

[paulipips]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH - fookin mint!! - how quaint does it all seem.....cant beat a good old droog scare to get the proletariat and the media rattled....this is the sorta hysteria that probably helped Chris Morris to knock out the comedy genius stuff he does today.....long live chemical enhancement......

[Amazz]

Those old biddies looked like they'd taken a couple of pills already! Judging by the hideous pink rinse and the awful wig! Is shocking isn't it? How dare people of all backgrounds want to gather together and dance to music! The british media have got to be the biggest bunch of twats! Bring back ACID HOUSE!!!

[cajjer]

Fuck me, it's worse than Brass Eye :)

[00rr1]

People are scared to play a vocal in house music these days.All that minimal crap is for tourists and people who know nothing about the history you don't need drugs to enjoy it anyway daft grannys.

[ninthwave]

Those old women were funny!

[dukes007]

i love old mavis and vera at the start ha ha!!

[themightybouf]

i bet those wigtops would be right on it after a few tabs in their tea. They'd love that SH*T

[encise]

"all we wanna do is dance!"

[herojamilio]

"all those lights flashing don't do any good either" - brilliant

[jakobfrederik]

19 years later it's still here and it will stay for ever. Unfortunately fuckin warmongers like america etc are still doing their evil thing.

[25AUG1968]

I still can't believe that this was now NINETEEN years ago! The years really are getting shorter! Mike S.

[Tatsbabe]

he's one ugly motherfu..er isn't he. He is a total pillock. It amazes me how the bullshit media can get the whole country to believe anything they want it to believe. None of the ignorant tossers have a clue, I mean for f...s sake. People are scared to be seen having fun, they really have a problem with it. wa..ers.

[AndyW001]

Ha Ha Ha,if they only knew half of it!!!

[JAMESJW2006]

stuck up cunts

[sagaskell]

ohh and the old geeza seemed to get it right. "i assumed it's something to do wit the drug scene"..spot on! :O
