Travelled down to Orbit from Glasgow a few times around 93-94. Saw Dave Angel, CJ Bolland Colin Dale, Jeff Mills amongst others. The thing that still gives me the biggest smile is the memory of all the nutters on the staircases coming down to the dancefloor withone leg over the bannister raving like f*ck. What a club! Happy times.

this place was the dogs ******* - used to get over with mates from Bridlington loads of times - especially after they shut down Phenomenon and Cuba in Bridlington. Always used to have an argument with the little curly haired doorman on the way in - but always got in - One time went with new girlfriend and was psyched up for the usual argument all the way up the queue. When we got to the front he just said "Yeah you two are ok - in ya go"

NOOOO I WANT TO HAVE MY ARGUMENT . . . ARGGHHHHHH
