HI fusion, i also have this video, and i have to say this video is the best of my collection, gob smacking to say the least.

My fav of all the clips is the dance 89 warehouse party which rocks with debbie malone - rescue me. Im not sure but i think some of my oldskool m8s where at this party ( although im not now in contact with them)

This is a rare video m8 and worth its weight in gold, wish i could find a few more tapes like this to add to my collection. I have some 91 eclipse vids and a Bliss vid from 91 too, all of which the later i was at............they where the days.

youll have to excuse me for goin off on 1 but ule know what i mean ;)

Nuff said


:axe: :love: :crazy: :mad:

the quality of my tape is spot on but the quality of the camcorders they used werent millenium equipment lol.

world dance is the rave where someone set light to the field with all the cars in it.

i was at 3 of those raves

the atmosphere rave was by the canal in in Old Ford,East London and that rave was in conjunction with genesis we was waiting outside while they rammed the wall down to gain access to the site then came big lorries with huge generators on them lol and Anton was walking round with his rottweillers lol

probably best night of my life that 1

i'm moving 0n 26th april as soon as i've moved i'm gonna get another video recorder so i can back my copy up.

i'll sort a few copies for others too
the video was never on sale people those who have it got through word of mouth.

i also have an eclipse vid from 1990

and 4 fantasia vids and a world party @lydd aircraft hanger from around 92

:mad: :mad: :mad:
 
LOL @ Antonthe pirate with rotties !!

Fusion mate - did you ever go to any raves where the ICF were involved/kicked off ?

Also would deffo be interested in yr vids & would compensate you richly :thumbsup:

Those were the days - when the people made the events happen - & worked damn hard at it - not just turning up , paying ya ticket price & being presented with a night out.....

i was in labrynth when it was in silvertown when that kicked off and echoes nightclub when it got raided and that was run by centreforce and the icf crew that got a bit nasty.

i was at the riot where there was a rave near watford.

this is the chat i had in a forum with wayne anthony(genesis promoter) in his forum when he asked for 1 of my best memories of those days.

It's Saturday 27th January 1990 8.00am driving up the A2 from Kent going to the Freedom to Party Rally @ Trafalgar Sq arrive and park in Soho Sq walk down Tottenham Court Road and were here,cannot believe the amount of people we recognise from all the raves we had been to by this time Trafalgar Sq is closed off to traffic the West End is @ a stand still and the police are being funny as usual saying no amplified sound with a beat to come from any of the pa systems then you got Anton giving it his all on the megaphone and then if the buzz wasnt big enough Debbie Malone sings acapella of Rescue Me.
It's about 6pm now and the rumours are flying around about all the raves in the capital so we hang around for another few hours and try to get in the Astoria but cant get in because the place is full so we thought ahh blx get up to South Mimms Services see whats happening up there so off we set up the A1 get to South Mimms and the place is going mental with ravers and thats it someone mentions a rave in Watford so now theres at least 100 cars makling there way up the M25 all following the cars in front i remember a roundabout and turning left under a bridge and everyones parking up really buzzin now all looking at each other going this is it we can hear it and it's still about a mile down road,The road is solid with people walking down it music getting louder gets to the rave and police everywhere but the rave is going on but they wont let us through then all the taunting started and that was it fighting with police and theres this geezer with a shopping trolley full of cans of coke selling them for 50p to throw at police or a pound to drink it i'd never heard anything so funny as that bloke when he came out with that comment.
and after all that we never got in but hey theres next week to look forward too ended up back in London @ Dungeons on the Lea Bridge Road but what a top day that was.

This is what happened! wayne anthony

Hey Fusion!

Wow! I remember that day well my friend. I was one of the demostration organisers and i helped crash the party in Watford later that evening. I took lts of photos at both the demo's (Trafalgar Sq & Hyde Park Corner) Anyway! We held a meeting straight after the demo, (included - Genesis, Sunrise, World Party, Biology, Weekend World), we knew we would stage an event, but didn't have a venue. We each went off to different parts of London, Slough, Watford. Tarquin from Weekend World found a venue in Radlett. We immediatley dispatched our sound and lighting teams. We had a series of recorded telephone lines at the ready for venue details and feed the meeting points to the pirate radio stations.

Tarquin greeted us when we arrived the venue and told us the man who hired us the fair ground attractions had pulled a shootgun on him and wanted £500 or he would leave. He got his money! People were already arriving at the venue but the sound system hadn't been wired up yet. So i convinced my cousin Bobby to drive his BMW into the building and play music on his £2,000 car stereo. So he did and everyone danced around the vehicle until the sound system was ready to go. By now there was around four hundred people in building and then the police arrived.

Wearing full riot gear and carrying video camera's and bright lights, they'd tried to rush the building. Everyone stood their ground and rushed towards the police. They stopped their charge and we all began chanting Acceeeedd - Acceeeeeed - Acceeeeeedddd

From the poistion we were standing we couldn't see what was happening around one corner of the warehouse. We heard cheers and then suddenley 1,000 people came charging around the corner. The police tried stopping them, so we all ran out of the building and into the riot police. For about twenty minutes, we played cat and mouse type games until the police finally gave up.

A lot more happen that night, you'll have to read the book, for the full story.

Yeah Baby! Wayne Anthony

regretfully i have to say that i didnt get to any of the above events mentioned, but had similar experiences on the cambridge warehouse scene back in the day, 100 car convoys being chased by the old bill, being barracaded in warehouse's not knowing if we gonna get out, these experiences where second too none, dancing your heart out with hundreds of others and knowing that you werent supposed to be their (venue) just gave it that added kick!

Fusion your above post should have been the last post to Missed(A)Monday on his "Controvesial opinion..." post earlier, watching the video says it all!:love: :mad: :love:

"This is anton on the news at ten!" lol
