[QUOTE="nupski, post: 829696, member: 8646"] ah right, i used to go to uni here too, i went to hallam tho ;) tbh for me scott wasn't as good by the time he started playing for gatecrasher, there were others that did the prog/trance thing better than him imho. he was mustard in the early days tho, the tunes he played were really distinctive, i could tell he was playing the minute he hit the dex, even if i was in the chill out room off my box lol. don't know hardwick so well, but i know of him of course, saw him play a few times at gatecrasher, he was ok from what i remember of him :thumbsup: shame u never got to go to c.r.e.a.m m8, it was the bomb. u got the chance to meet everyone there cos it was where all the promoters and djs went after their own nites had finished, apart from ppl like phil gifford (wobble) that were running the other allnighters. and the tunes were fookin immense, i loved the oldskool tunes even back then, and c.r.e.a.m was one of the few places where ppl would play the earlier stuff, most clubs were too busy trying to be at the cutting edge of things, at c.r.e.a.m they didn't give a fuck lol ;) first one i went to was at the chevron shoe factory in hockley, the ticket was an invite to maddog's birthday party, when we got there he was on the door greeting everyone. if u know scott mention madders to him and i'll bet u will get either a knowing smile or a roll of the eyes in return lol ;) he was one crazy mofo, went on to promote sundissential a few years later. while i'm rambling i might as well mention 1 other c.r.e.a.m story that just popped into my head. think it was the nye do in 95, they had 2 huge xmas trees next to the dex, u'd be bopping away, then 1 of em would fall on u and u'd spend the next 5 mins trying to dig ur way out from under it lol. this is where the story turns dark, c.r.e.a.m was a friendly place but it was edgey, that was 1 of the reasons why we liked it, walking past dibble ont way in feeling like a naughty schoolboy lol. anyway, at 1 point some lad flies past us into the wall, and a black fella followed him and gave him a proper kicking, we had to pull him away in the end cos he was gonna kill the lad, stamping on his head and allsorts :S we went over to try to help the lad up, then we realised why he weren't able to fight back. the black lad had sprayed cs gas in his face before he kicked fook out of him, we were all choking on it as we tried to help him. not the best experience when ur off ur nut lol, but most of the time the place was proper friendly, a 91 summer of love type of atmosphere that u didn't get anywhere else ;) anyway, hope that's enuff info for now mate, good luck with ur search, got a feeling ur gonna need it, it's 15 years since i heard a scott bond set from c.r.e.a.m lol. if he ent got any ur best bet is probs to try the promoter, his name was barney but tbh i don't know much else about him, he was a bit of a scary fooker lol ;) as for the tunes i will have a think and post a few more later :thumbsup: [/QUOTE]
