[empem1]

Went to the Reunion on the 30th July, First time back to Bowlers since 1997, went with a mate I haven't seen in 13 years and we had the time of our lives!! It was like stepping back in a Time Machine.....Loved every minute of it!.....Great atmosphere!...Banging Tuneeess!...and Ace Peeps!!!

[sustanonsandwich]

did i hear a sheep bleat?

[RobCrutchley]

sorry guys, pressed it twice like a homo

[RobCrutchley]

I was there brasstacks007 from the first nights to pretty much the end, I know what you mean. There was love, amazing tunes, no booze needed, great atmosphere, gorgus girls all around, meet new friends every weekend. Services afterwards for more amazing shananigans. We were part of something that will never be repeated or understood by the new generation of kids that think nights out at a bar is life. We all experienced something special and I really mean that. I'll be telling the grandkids...

birchwood??? nuff said ;-)



[madders1000]

im organising a bowlers re-union all about the old days. anyone up for it?

[WythenshaweMancunia]

Wow you people need to get off your high horse and realise that you're not the only generation to have a youth. Constantly slagging off the current generation and basing modern youth culture on the X-Factor etc. is ridiculous. There's so much going on at the moment in dance music....the house/trance scene is still huge and Dubstep's taking off now and the kids nowadays have got more drugs than sense. Watch videos of Sankeys and Warehouse Project realise what the youth of today is about

[RobCrutchley]

@WythenshaweMancunia seriously man, it was special. it was love and music, totally raw and not commercial bollocks. yes they had to make money etc. but the value for money was out of this world. i wish you were there mate, you would have loved it, trust me.

[WythenshaweMancunia]

@RobCrutchley Well considering Bowlers opens on the 28th May I'll be there to see it myself........before you bore me with the old skool bollocks yes the crowd was probably better back in the day bla bla bla but this is the closest I'll get without borrowing Ryan Giggs' time machine....PS United play Barca on the same night so I've gotta make a serious decision between the London or Bowlers.....MUFC OK!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bobnudd]

@WythenshaweMancunia Drugs? if you call a 2 quid pill that contains 0 percent mdma drugs then u must still be in ya 20s , the dance scene now is no where near like it was in the early 90s now its chavs with glow sticks jumping around to "happy hardcore " for fucks sake imao, its about as friendly as a millwall v westham game now, 26 of us are going to bowlers on sat just for one last dance in the place and 2 remmber how good life nights where , im fucked if im going in the cheesey ardcore room

[WythenshaweMancunia]

@bobnudd The very fact you're judging today's dance scene on happy hardcore and glowsticks pretty much proves how out of touch you actually are and how much you know/don't know! Judging a pill by price as well? Not cool! If you want purity try 'Magic' or MDMA powder, you'll be rocking your tits off. I also would be going Bowlers this weekend, also for the Old Skool rather than Hardcore, if it didn't clash with the CL Final; and the fact it shuts at 3am, just doesn't cut it for this generation!

[bobnudd]

@WythenshaweMancunia Im not knocking the youth of today but on a old skool vid your going to get old skool views , i belive there having a big screen tv up for the final m8 anyways ,and u can pay on the door as long as u phone up first so come along and bring some of that mdma my way ,them 2 pound pills around here dont even make ya eyes big never mind get you rockin ya tits off , heres to hopin i bump into a good un inside :)

[WythenshaweMancunia]

@bobnudd I'm going to town to watch it but I may see you in there after pal, hopefully celebrating, maybe having some happy powder to consolidate myself if not haha!

[deadlights0]

40 this year and still nod my head and grin at the sound of the old tunes.....love it till i drop!!

[leuvensam]

i am 35 i long for a life again. once someone jumped in front of my car and bounced of the bonnet he dropped a white glove the next week it was the talk. i wasnt in a fit state to drive after that my mate drove back for me

[doubleblue1878]

How can the house scene be dead?? Easy, the music gets commercial and idiots like you come come along. This is 'raving', ie top of the pops on E

[doubleblue1878]

This place was dross........talk about Jonny-come-lately. The house scene had been dead for 3 years!!!!!

[bigbribol]

@doubleblue1878 how can the house scene ever be dead you absoloute tit!!! it will go on for ever its not about what clothes you should be dancing in at that time fashion ruined house and stupid small peoples attitudes like yours

[darren1497]

im 21 but i love da 90`s rave scene and music it looks amazing i wish i was there not in the era im in now its shit all these gangsters and that like some ` said drag them 2 a rave and give them a disco biscuit and they wont go back innit

[exmanc08]

the only decent night was the first one, After that it turned in to a circus. People from Wigan and Bolton - no idea really.

[brasstacks007]

dude i miss them days so much i cry and im a 44 year old man now, im fucking sick of the x factor, what the fuck has gone wrong with our country . back then i thought this is it , a new dawn of unity in our country! now all theose kids killin each other ,listen to fucking gangsta rap n wanting guns , drag em to a rave and gime em a dove job done.

[khaadimone]

I'm in complete agreement with you dude, there's no happy trippers now, just bad attitudes and trash! Cheers for using the word "dude"! I thought I was the only one left!

[bearhugbell]

Christ I thought it was me being mega nostalgic..those were such carefree, fuckin fantastic days and being a 41 year old mother of two, I thought I was just getting old n daft, but it WAS a different world then...the scene was so new n fresh..what's new n fresh now??!! There'll be a scene out there, I suppose I'm just not on it any more!

[daveybaby10]

haer hear,well said

[redriot74]

@brasstacks007 yeah teach them some love n unity.

[DJGaryGold]

@brasstacks007 mate couldnt agree more, i have put on 1 oldschool party and i am 14, it was an ok turn out considering it was the first party and i am hopefully expecting more for the next one, hoping for the 150 mark.

It isn't a patch on the days of the pleasuredome, fantazia, galactica, shellys, eclipse...........

where abouts you living as i am hoping to put on a party in kent.

[bigdonkey1000]

Same here guys,i'm 41 now,and my life now is useless as shit..i often get upset that i'm older..sometimes i lie awake all night wondering where it all went,half my family are dead,all my mates are either dead,or married and moved away..life back then was great,it was fookin unbeatable..out with your mates,avin a bear and a laugh,meet girls and enjoy some top mixes and tunes,nice n chilled,and you felt quite safe out n about on your tod at night,not like that now..i will never feel good again !!

[heybaes]

[billo3para]

[50KORDIE]

90's was age of rave hacienda bowlers and pleasuredrome ace clubs

[90sHouseTunes]

Was it fuck. Noone liked ravers.

Try Cream, The Tunnel (Glasgow) Ministry Of Sound, Turnmills....

Real house played there. Not that rave shit.

Thank god the rave scene crumbled by 94.

[cheesyquaverq]

The dance scene in early 92 was still pretty much unified so you would get house, hard house, techno, breakbeat and every other flavour of things bleepy and beaty all played from the same stage in the same night

Are you sure you're not mistaking "rave" for "happy hardcore" - that beautifully specialised high speed and helium vocal sonic assault? Easy mistake to make. Especially if you were still at school at the time.

[cheesyquaverq]

comment directed at 90shousetunes earlier post btw! :-)
