Flashback 24/02/00 Que Club Birmingham 9:30-6 in the morning Worth the wait!! It's been nearly 3 months since the last flashback and well it was worth the wait after all. Aint been ravin since Nye so I was eager to down on the yellow jacket and me ravin shoes and head off to the Que club. Got to the square peg to meet up with fellow ravers got a quick drink before heading down to the Que club. Heard that flashback sold out on Monday all 2500 tickets gone so if your planning your next get 'em early!!! And if you missed don't read on otherwise you'll be in tears. Queuing didn't take that long as they opened on time bout 9:30 rather than half hour late like last time. Got in cloakroom max time bout 2mins and off I head to get me glow sticks and into the main arena we headed off. First up Mr. Pilgrem, quality oldskool set some anthems mixed up with the proper underground stuff from bout early 1990-91'ish.not many people ravin' on dance floor so we headed off to the jungle room this place was bouncing and it was only bout 10 or was 10:30 but still it was rapid like the jungle tune the remix of the horn track is quite rapid I likes it!! Who was djing don't have a clue!! Back into the main pilgrem started to get some quality tune such as me fave quadraphiona then next up Mistress mo according to mc Long john misses mo I know people going to hate me but I didn't like long johns style to be honest prefer bass man but not long john, I felt he ruined mo's set to be honest she playing some wicked tune really dapper tunes but long john just really didn't get me going you gets me but lenni took over half way through and yes he's wicked far better than long john. During the end off her set who did I see wandering round mc LIVLEE were was Charlie b but live lee goes better off with dougal would have liked to see Charlie b but never mind Next up the reason I was here DOUGAL yes the great one Dougal started off with oldskool anthems but finished off happy live lee just rocking the mike with the fave rhyme my name is mc livlee. and 2nd chance. Who ever thought they would here forever together and steam train in the Que club??? I thought I would never here that the crowd loved it especially people my age-group coz that my oldskool the ladies loved cause it was happy J One of the reason I didn't live long john for what he did during live lee's rhymes just as dougal was finishing off with steam train live just started his rhyme then suddenly long john just grabbed the mike off him now that's not right they are both professional mc's and that what you don't do rob the mic off another mc maybe cause Mr. long john doesn't like happy?? After that tryin to find dougal just to say hello and complement him on a wicked set top geezer get well soon dougal's dad Next time to wonder round ratty was djin' not really a fave of that dark side apart from tango and ratty's final conflict which I could up in the chill out room!! Inside the chill out room Mr. Will "the camera man" Chown cheers for coolin' me down with water . We were just chillin up on the balcony could see people ravin on top of the lighting box that's was cool just hope no-one fell off. But just sittin up there and the man micky finn just turned up and he played just one wicked tune cant remember but it had the dogs barking and a bloke sayin no who lets the dogs loose loose. Just had to get back in front off the stage for some jungle style ravin. Wicked tunes including pulp fiction, ready or not?, no diggity ah man the man played a stompin' set cause black-market didn't turn up he was on for a good 2-3 hours no gq as well disappointed in gq didn't turn up last flashback and the prosession event a week before maybe he don't like Birmingham ?? But instead you had lenni, long john and spyda no spyda is wicked, maybe get hi down more often cause I was lovin his rhymes gotta a tape from skelter millennium with him and juicman b2b with hype that tape was wicked and to hear the man live that was different story!! But one of my fave sets off the evening. Last but not least SL2 yes the boys are back in town wicked guys respects due to lime, slipmatt and jay j. Played some slowy old hardfcore to sart and then it got mental in the middle with tunes like raagga tip, way in ma brain also charly not forgettin the crowds favouite OUTTA SPACE. Finished the set with some jungle like champion sound and breaking free. Spoke to lime and slipmat durin the sets and they are really top geezers asked them to sign an album sleeve from united dance anthems and they could stop laffin bout there old hair cuts from back in the day.
