Cream used to be in the back room of Eden where I used to DJ in the Academy. Im not too sure about the dates though but Im sure it was 93. Its all a bit of a blur from back then :fekked: :fekked: :fekked:

Just double checked... "Cream Opening Night" was Saturday 17th October 1992 with Fabio Paris, Paul Myers and Paul Bleasdale in the back room of the Academy (Nation). The following Saturday (24th) had James Barton, Andy Carroll and Paul Bleasdale :thumbsup:

Think Up Yer Ronson was a bit earlier. I remember going there for Graeme Park in December 92, and that definitely wasn't the first.
