Blastoff - Chapter 1 - The Tip Off

First of six chapters of original footage shot in 1989. The chapters tell the tale of an acid house party called Blast Off. The scale of the party is rarely seen today, as is the vibe.

Great stuff , spent 89 partying round the M25 , looks like it was good up north

[dawsonix]

Blastoff was near Rickmansworth in Herts, that counts as the M25 dunnit?

[safetan2002]

[dawsonix]

Ah I see, there was actually a Blastoff in Blackburn a month before the party in the film.

Wouldn't that be a blast!!

Can't believe I'm seeing this one here, me n my ex organised this, well he did mostly, and we both ended up with a massive fine... oops! Good night though. I have the full video still would upload it if I knew how to from the old thing. If anyone can advise I'll try to do it. Great to see so many good comments by the way, and yes we did another one earlier in the year, in Blackburn... that was the best one in my opinion, no video for that though!
