Event name: Utopia - United - 11th Birthday
Starts: 2006/7/1
Country: Australia 
State/Territory: New South Wales
Utopia, Australia’s biggest and best rave party, is turning eleven this July and we want your presence! Join us for this sensational all night celebration with fourteen of the hottest internationals joining forces with the finest local talent to blow out the candles on eleven outstanding years in the business.
What started as a modest underground party on a cold night in July 1995 at Centennial Stadium, Minto, has now transformed into a world-class event spectacular with a global reputation. Located in a brand new venue – the Warehouse Sector of the Sydney Showgrounds, Homebush – Utopia United will deliver an unparalleled fusion of sight and sound spanning all forms of hardcore, gabber, freeform, hardstyle, techno, trance and Hi-NRG.
Once again, masters of their domain BLM production management will be running the show with a state-of-the-art f**k off sound system and a symphony of dazzling lighting, lasers and effects. It’s going to be one helluva birthday party. This time, we’re having our cake and eating it too, and we’re saving a very special piece for you!
TECHNOBOY (NL)
Cristiano Giusberti aka TechnoBoy has been commandeering the wheels of steel for over fourteen years, delivering his own rocket-fuelled brand of techno and hardstyle. Throughout the ‘90s, he played a key role in Italy’s dance scene as an A&R manager for The Saifan Group, Record 66 and Arsenic Sound labels just to name a few. These days, he unleashes his surging hardstyle monsters on the unsinkable Titanic Records label and has more remixes to his name than he can count.
ESSENTIAL PLATINUM (UK) Live Pa
Your wildest dreams have come true – it’s Dougal, Gammer and their vocalist of choice, Lisa Marie, performing as one.
DOUGAL (UK)
Paul Clarke is the mastermind behind the ever-impressive Essential Platinum label, which boasts in excess of 100 releases. Voted the number one hardcore DJ by MTV and Dreamscape, Paul’s almost endless CV of tunes hotwires euphoric hardcore with uplifting vocals and a deep experimental edge. His tracks have featured on every one of the Bonkers mix series. His work with fellow tourmate, Gammer, has already exploded in ‘06 with electrifying releases including ‘Tripod’, ‘Driving Me Crazy’ and ‘All the Tears I’ve Cried’.
GAMMER (UK)
With banging tunes like ‘Let It Go’, ‘That’s How I Roll’ and ‘The Power Within’ up his sleeve, DJ Gammer (aka Matt Lee) constantly deals out the aces! After a chance encounter with Dougal one night out, the duo are now legendary partners in production with a bottomless crate of dancefloor classics to their name. His solo tracks have appeared on compilations like Bonkers, Hardcore Heaven and Hardcore Nation and most recently, he’s collaborated with DJs In-Effect, Kevin Energy, Sharkey and MC Storm!
LISA MARIE (UK) Live Pa
When Dougal & Gammer need an angelic voice to ride their propulsive beats, they call upon Lisa Marie. Her golden vocals have graced their dancefloor gems like ’Tell Me a Story’, ’ How Did I Get Here’, ‘Open Your Eyes’ and most recently, ’Drive Me Crazy’. She’s also performed on the classic United In Dance tunes, ’Still the One’ and ’Lift Me Above’, making her one of the global scene’s most recognised singers. Tonight she performs in live PA mode.
ORGAN DONORS (UK)
Splicing together hard trance, techno and their own signature productions, brothers Matt & Scott Harris have spent more than ten years in the business apiece. At home on the prestigious Nukleuz label, these sound surgeons are best known for incendiary hits like ‘Locked Tight’, ‘Black Out’ and ’99.9’. They scored big last year when their ‘Turntablism’ tune took out Best Track at the Hard Dance Awards. With an explosive ‘Dex & FX’ live show, these doctors of hard dance are in the house and ready to operate!
VINYLGROOVER (UK)
Pinned by Mixmag as “one of the best the hard dance scene has to offer”, Scott Attril has set the scene on fire with trailblazing tunes like ‘Show Me A Sign’, ‘Midnight Express’ and ‘Stay’. Fans of his work include Judge Jules, Eddie Halliwell, BK, Anne Savage and Rob Tissera just to name a few. Along with Jim Sullivan (aka The Red Hed), he’s established the burgeoning Traffic Records imprint, releasing cuts like ‘Dancing Naked in the Rain’, ‘Don’t You Want My Love’ and their remix of Josh Wink’s ‘Higher State of Consciousness.
LISA ABBOTT (UK) Live Pa
Without a doubt hardcore’s most prolific vocalist, Lisa is best known for lending her voice to massive tunes like Breeze & Styles’ ‘You’re Shining’ and Darren Styles’ ‘Getting better’ (which went top ten in the UK). As well as collaborating with the likes of Gammer, Force, Resist, Fracus and Hixxy, Lisa has also worked on numerous solo projects with a resume boasting hits like ‘Blow me Away’ and ‘The One’. This will be her first time in Sydney so be prepared to be blown away.
ALEK SZAHALA (FIN)
Alek Száhala fell in love with music production as soon as he got his first sound card in 1993. One of Finland’s best kept secrets until he exploded on the global scene in 2003 with harddance anthems like ‘Superstition’, ‘Man Eaten’ and ‘Tlaloc’, he’s established himself as one of the key players in the FiNRG movement taking it to the world. Describing his style as ‘hyper-energetic’, his super-charged sound spans melodic trance and trancecore to dark, soaring hard-NRG.
RX (FIN)
Ville Sorsa’s energetic stage shows, unique combination of mixing and scratching and furious brand of FiNRG and sinister freeform has earned superstar status in his homeland’s hard dance scene. Flaunting dancefloor detonators like ‘Frozen Flame’ and ‘Hellfire’, the 25-year-old has also turned heads around the world with his ‘Codex’ mix series, now in its third instalment. He’s the driving force behind FINRG Recordings, Scandinavia’s first and foremost hard dance label, so prepare for some serious Finnish fury when he lands in Sydney.
STORM (UK)
UK hardcore DJ Alistair Taylor loves Sydney so much, he moved here last year to concentrate full time on his productions. With partners Euphony and Spinback, he’s built up a hardcore empire with a five (!) labels to his name including Warped Science, Destructive Force, Cloned, Underground and Moondance. His fearsome style of driving, uplifting hardcore has seen him remix the likes of Dougal, Force & Styles, Bang and Vinylgroover. With a huge array of new homegrown tunes, this will be Storm as you’ve never seen him before.
IN-EFFECT (UK)
When hardcore godfather DJ Hixxy tags you “the next big breakthrough artist”, you know you’re doing something right. Paul Bevan is already riding high on huge collaborations with Dougal, Gammer, Breeze and Impact and has impressed many with his solo productions too. Never one to sit still stylistically, his approach draws from a broad palette of hardcore with streaks of nosebleed gabba. This month sees the release of his collaboration with Gammer, ‘We Come Alive’/’Stuck in a Moment’ through Nukleuz records, which is sure to tear heads off.
COMPULSION (UK)
Working in the studio with artists such as Dougal, Gammer, In-Effect and Deejaybee, this 24-year-old dynamo has already released dancefloor cuts on the legendary hardcore labels Essential Platinum, Infinity Recordings and Maximum Impact. He regularly DJs up and down the UK (Hardcore Till I Die, United Dance, Hardcore Heaven et al) and already has a few laps round the world under his belt. Coupled with his studio work, Compulsion is fast becoming one of the hardest working and innovative DJs on the circuit.
SILVER (JAP)
This Australian-born DJ (now based in Toyko) is best known for founding happyhardcore.com, the world’s most popular hardcore dance website. Riding on the back of its success, this tastemaker has become the most listened-to internet hardcore DJ on the planet. Somehow, he also finds time to run several record labels including MasterWax Records and Infinity Recordings. He’s released countless quality compilations, including the Hardcore Tsunami series and the Australia-only four disc mix series, ‘Ultimate Hard Trance & Happy Hard’.

meow meow...
did u type all that or was that a copy paste from the powerhouseproductions site? |
| Ravine |
Obviously a copy and paste job. Nobody posted it so i thought i might do the honors. |
| ryg0r |
I'll be honest, this looks like the biggest/best party I have ever seen in Sydney. |
| FriedRice |
Between in-effect dougal, gammer, lisa marie & silver i gotta agree with rygor ere
Gettin my ticket next week and i hope it lives up to all the hype hope to see ya's there |
| nins |
Definitely going to this one.. even just for DJ Silver alone since his mixes have been excellent on di.fm! Can't wait!!
Also cool line up with Gammer, Dougal, Lisa Marie, and In-Effect!! wooo!
Sydney Show Ground -Warehouse complex? <--- any good? |
| gobbo23 |
looks bloody huge. Compulsion, in effect,
Alek Szahala, storm and Essential Platnium.
I'm hoping they get dougal and gammer to play individual sets along with the live pa. A live PA + a dougal vocal cheesey set + a gammer harder freeform set, would be awesome. |
| Cotts |
well... im there!!!!!!!, should be absolutly kickin!....
does anyone know where to get the tickets? i have looked at tiketek etc... but are they not on sale yet? |
| Ravine |
I'm pretty sure the tickets aren't on sale as of yet and aren't on the powerhouse site.
And yes, i'd go there just to see Silver. He is, after all the big man of this fair site we are posting on and he is also technically a fellow Aussie! Respect to him! |
| ihaveduff |

| LazerLicKa |
Utopia 11th b'day is one of the best things to happen to the Sydney rave scene.
The dj line-up covers many spectrums of dance music, so Utopia will keep most of the ravers happy =)
Personally i am really looking forward to the Essential Platinum set, as well as In-Effect and Silver sets.
Hope that Dougal and Gammer do their own sets as well, but the line-up is already pretty overwhelming. Overall should be a great night for the Sydney ravers =) |
| Dj Mattress |
Alright. This should be an excellent night. Looks like a good rave.... Wonder if it will be as big as prohecy??
BUt i cant wait all the same. I hope Impact and In Effect do a set. I love their song "Close your eyes"
Hope to see you all there *dances* |
| manic |

Pools next day does sound like fun actually clean up and yeah no more dirty scatt day |
| Ravine |
Those pools are gonna be defiled with sweat. Maybe for once i might actually shower before entering the pool. |
| FriedRice |
You know showering would be a good idea but i refuse to shower in public places anymore after that time that old guy freaked me out at the gym by staring at me.....guess thats what ya get for pumping weights naked, nah jks but yeah some old guy wouldnt stop staring at me....so i never showered there again lol |
| skattakid |
omg, worst thing ever on skat day is jumping in a pool for me, i have this bad habit of shock to my body and start peakin again! |
| FriedRice |
I'm EXACTLY the same, showers do it the worst for me, one time i got home work called me and i felt pretty ok so i said i'd come in, had a shower and WHOA!!i was off my rocker again for the entire shift...it was scary |

| skattakid |
whats wrong with bankstown? it's not any scarier than any other place in sydney! |
| jimbooo |
Maiden post ^___^ its amazing what you come across while you're sposed to be cramming for exams
anywho i have my ticket, i havent been raving since prophecy and i'm absolutely STANGIN' for it. I'm serious, i got the DVD from it the other day and by the end I had broken out into a cold sweat and was shaking. My mates said b'day last year with luna and that was uber, so hoping for the same this time.
Does anyone know if its the same venue?
Hope you get a photo of me skattakid, i missed out at prophecy but you got me at NYE. |
| FriedRice |
Fark you havent been raving since prophecy?how do ya survive?lol
way different location btw, its the warehouse section of homebush i am guessin kinda near where fantasia was?duff any help?lol
Oh and prophecy dvd absolutely sucked was so tempted to throw it out made raving seem super dirty and just full of shithouse dancing gurning tools, but yeah
HHC meetup ere kid so when the time comes i'll get contact numbers and go from there
Peace |
| Cotts |
there was a prophecy dvd?! Well if it sucked i wont look ino it any further, im buying my tickets for this event on thursday. |
| jimbooo |
yeah i thought it was WAY too many shots of random people being off their tits. Not enough shots of how massiv the production was, or the dj's and they always cut just before a song was about to climax. Oh and it the order was just all over the place. Still, got some haggard nostalgia out of some bits.
i honestly don't know. Uni is just dominating everything, i had to quit my job and shit, but utopia is smack bang in the middle of the holidays so i can bugger off somewhere for a week afterwards to watch entire box sets of sitcoms and whatnot. |
| Nick_12 |
oi, jim man, you ****ing douche T_T, do we have any plans for scat day? if not , we should make plans; possibly involving acid/dxm, just to mix things up a bit as we dont have a house to chill in this time, and are you putting in for goey? perhaps organise a 40 person drum sesh somewhere in syd for everyone. = |
| jimbooo |
we need robs house in anna bay so we can do the stockton sand dunes desert tripping exodus like schoolies, i dunno how that'd go on scat day tho. Also, this is in newcastle. But atm thats the only idea i got. |
| Ravine |
So...HHC.com meetup???? We totally gotta give props to our man silver there. |
| Nick_12 |
oi ravine, your names stan and you're asian. do you mix? |

i wouldnt try it... i choose life... |

The warehouse sector is part of the showgrounds, not near where fantasia was, it's some of the buildings that are used for the easter show and Big Day out, not the showbag pavillions though, thats "the dome" and that was used last year for utopia's 10th b'day but they got fined for noise complaints coz it's too close to the hotel in olympic park, it's the ones further down around past the main showground near the outskirts of olympic park... |
| Nick_12 |
Driving on scat day is fine man, rocco does it everytime. Just smoke a puzza before you drive to chill yourself a bit. And stan, its me 12 from hard as nails man =p |

oops, my bad... i have no clue where that is... guess i'll do the usual "follow the flashing lights" routine... or just listen for the bass like prophecy |
| jimbooo |
aw man does anyone who caught the train remember how whacky arriving at and leaving prophecy was? All the footy fans were getting on the train as we were getting off, they were like "who the f*** are these people?"
then on the way out there was some kids triathlon on just outside the traino, like a hoarde of scat people just roll straight on through. some chick started having seizures in the line to the ticket machine too, that was hectic as. all the kids are like "mummy, why are there so many funny people here and why do some of them look really sad and some really happy?" |
| ihaveduff |
hahahaha yup!!! i enjoyed scaring the footy freaks... the line for the ticket machine was so screwed though... funny looking at the kiddies... and how they'll grow to be just like us one day :P |

Oh hey 12!! You guys better make it for Utopia! It's my bday rave and i'll finally be 18!!! =D =D =D. I hope i can trek it down to the gong and join you guys on the scat day. |
| Nick_12 |
man theres no chance were missing utopia, were organising tix and "other things" as we speak. No idea what were doing for scat day though, the chances of having a free house like last time are slim at best. But im sure w'll figure something out, even if its just getting ****ed in a park somewhere. |
| jimbooo |
nuh a park would be gay. I wish we could have gregs house again >.< his place is mad for scat day, mainly cos of the big balcony with heaps of cush rocking chairs + spa to have uber spa buckets. apparently stan, last scat day was actually an enjoyable day. i missed out on hard as nails tho T____T |
| Nick_12 |
Damm straight, speed and cones and nitrous and codeine. was a good scat day all round |
| skattakid |
i cant handle skat days anymore, Old jaded boy here! |

It used to be Me, rocco and dippits, dont know if yourve met him. But we have slowly grown into a strong force. =p
Everyone should come down to wollongong for scat day and come to amigoes. This mexican restaurant where you can get mountains of nachoes. its going to be great =p |

You guys are a bad influence. You're defiling more souls.

I sorta like bad influences sometimes, awwww, what to do, what to do? will i make a comeback to scatdays? |
| reenz |
Hey guys, i dont know if this sounds like a silly question or not but whats the go with raves at homebush... is the roof open/shut??? |
| silver |
Ok, if someone wants to sort out a meetup then that would be wicked. I don't know the venue at all so that is why I am asking someone else to sort it.
I'll drag myself and other headliners down to the meetup. |
| Nick_12 |
This is just a blitzling good idea, im not too familar on the lay out. Whoever is. make a place. make it good. make it now. We must get together |
| jimbooo |
true that. I don't think anyone knows the layout, this is the first time they've held a rave at this venue.

yeah i'm pretty positive its all undercover mate. Except i don't know where they are gonna fit 3 arenas, they've been owned for making too much noise a few times tho so it'll probably be all inside. |
| Cotts |
im usually good with knowing the areas around the usual venues, superdome etc... but im not sure about this one.
Anyone else clear on where things are? |
| Ravine |
Your guide is here =)
Silver and gong rave buddies i'll help yas out. If you want a simple place to meet up, then it's gotta be olympic park station. It's right outside the venue and if you guys catch a bus/taxi they will know where that is. The station is right outside the showgrounds and i expect that the venue will be the big warehouses outside the station and if it's in the showgrounds, the showground entrance is also outside the station.
I'll make a map when i get home for more detail.
PS: Silver i want a black HHC small T-Shirt if you can get my one
Edit 1:
 |
| FluxZero |
Mate im there, haven’t been raving in a while. Too much on my plate. But this i cant miss and conveniently just after exams :D. If you guys wana meet up im all for it. :D Last rave was hardwars i think.....wow that was a while ago.
And i fairly sure somethign has been held here before. I sware. Its where all those midnight rug sales are. and yeah itf its where i thik it is its all under cover except when you walk between areas.
Edit: off teh map it looks like the arena you circiled
where about in the gog you guys from. I used to live down there :D |
| FluxZero |
Just got my ticket :D Happy man, getting G'ed up :D |
| gobbo23 |
i'm 50/50 chance of making it at the moment.
A meet up would be good but it would be tough to pick a location as the event could be at many vaious plaes around the showground |
| jimbooo |
u reckon traino? i spose i can't think of a better place outside the venue, i was gonna say in the bar area or something cos its usually out of the way enough for a decent meetup, but that would exclude all those who are a few months shy of 18. 2 weeks now, i'm amped. Finished exams today so its the home stretch, then off to the snow for a week ^_____^
quote:

heheh we're from all over the place, austinmer to berry. We all went to the only selective high school on the south coast so we're pretty stretched out! |
| FluxZero |
Yeah that is streached out.
School wise do you mean Smiths Hill???? or the one further down, is it Norwa I
know there is one down there. See all the smart people lover HARDCORE :D
As for the meet up im good for the train satation, its close to everything but it means we have to meet up earlish, I i think there is going to be a killer line up to get in. |
| reenz |
Awesome I gots me a ticket :D
Very very excited about this!!!! it will be nice to meet fellow HHC.commers i hope me and my friends dont lose ourselves being from adelaide and all lol |
| Regs |
loooooks great...cant wait 1st day of school holidays haha,what great timing...
|
| jimbooo |
I just looked at the HTID 15 thread, its on the same night as Utopia and Dougal is on the lineup.
Either someone screwed up or Dougal is in correspondence with a very fast jet. |
| FluxZero |
Ummmm, yeah doesnt sound too good. I have heard of DJ's flying across Europe to do gigs back to back but from over there it would take what 20 hr to get here.
Nope its mistake on HTID part.
Still phyced up for this tho :D |
| FluxZero |
Hay Dougal is also posted as playing at Essential Platinum Hardcore on the June
30th, in WA. So it looks like he is in the country. I would say its a HTID stuff up. |
| skattakid |
hmmm, i've seen an itinirary of all the dj's, they are definately in australia on those dates, or someone is diguising themself as dougal... |
| FriedRice |
Dj meetup Awesome!!I am def. bringin a camera
But as for a meetup during the event thats pretty hard to do
I mean us ravers can meet at the station beforehand but what about silver and co.?Maybe you could give us a phone number to ring ya on or something?Flashbacks scattakid?lol |
| jimbooo |
yeah mass exchange of numbers needs to happen if this is gonna work, a lot of you guys probably already have each others numbers tho, right? |
| Ravine |
Bloody hell fried rice. Did you have to tell everybody on eChild?
Anyways, train station might be a bit...meh...
So maybe a bar in the area? |
| ihaveduff |
eeeeew ehilders smell
there's a bar pretty close 2 the traino... think its under the novotel :s |
| 1up |
anyone know if rygor [the acolyte] is going? i sO want to meet him! silver will prolly be playing some of his trax. itll be shiit great the meet silver and rygor at the same time! |

There's a bar nearby the location but it might end up being a trek because nobody knows the exact location. Can anybody get ahold of Sam from Powerhouse and get one so we know? |
| FriedRice |
At the risk of recieving many hateful phonecalls from fellow HHC members lol my number is 0432928029 we only have a bit over a week so lets figure this out yes? |
| silver |
Meetup inside the venue please, going outside the venue aint gonna be easy I think. |

afraid of the fans? paparazzi? [not like there is any LOL]
im not so sure then =S
when someone figures it out lemme know? =P |
| FriedRice |
The bar usually isnt that packed at powerhouse events but thats a problem for any of you guys under 18, hmm silver do you have a contact number you could trust someone with?lol |
| Ravine |
Sure then inside the venue in the bar sounds good by me. Unless you wanna meetup in the toilet or something... |
| jimbooo |
I think the bar is the best option hey, its the only real landmark thats always at a rave. Even for all the U18 people, we could just meet there and then move somewhere else. |
| 1up |
okey dokey! any news on rygor? |
| Ravine |
Dammit forget everyone else, i wanna meet Lisa Marie <3. |
| 1up |
sure!~ why not see lisa abbott while ur at it! xD
u know what? im snit excited for alek szlahala! his trax are kick ass!
u know what? *smiles a big smile*  im snit excited bout pretty much the everything! xD |
| Ravine |
Still a week and a half to go and this thread is booming with replies! |

mmmmm... NRG...
and yeah, true that. the week before a rave you get agonizing rave withdrawals. I relieve them by sitting in front of my computer with headphones on cranking fat beetz for hours on end. God bless unemployed uni students on holidays... we're a real asset to society. |
| FluxZero |
Ok it’s decided.
If HHC people want to, we can meet up before the event at the train station.
The DJ meet up is the bar inside the venue. Is this easy enough for you DJ's?? Silver
OK the next question is when are we going to meet up at the bar???
Any suggestions?
And I’m getting serous rave withdrawals as well. Al study and no fun makes me go somethign something.......

Or we could meet at the Macca's in Olympic Park. Its not really that hidden, you can see the golden arches from ages away.
Either way, I'm going and it will be awesome fun. I'll drag Al Storm's down there too. I think we'll all need name tags with out forum/nicknames on them so we know who is who! |

Yes! Get some fat into us before we lose kilos upon kilos after raving too long.

The bar will be the easiest point, what time? |
| Ravine |
Lets wait til the timetable comes out. I believe it's in 3D magazine today so i'll pick up a copy tomorrow at uni or if someone else has a copy we can work out a time. Don't wanna miss out on something big. |

Someone tell me what time I am playing haha :) |
| Cotts |
Haha yeah it would be handy to know what time you were playing re: orginisation with meeting up etc... Preferably before hand so I can tell you to play fly like a bird (dougal and gammer remix)  |
| Baby700 |
Set times weren't in 3D :( Dare say P'House haven't even figured them out yet.
Anyway, this should be an awesome night. Top representing DJs from happy hard, hardstyle and hard dance genres! |
| jimbooo |
hmmmb i still don't know what train i'm catching yet... Also, I'm thinking about buying a weekly ticket between lidcombe and olympic park just to avoid the queue of death in the morning.
But i'll probably be arriving sometime between 9 and 10... jeez hang on, does it start at 9 or 10? i forget. |
| Baby700 |
10pm start :) |
| ryg0r |
Where is this bar? |
| FriedRice |
Its in the venue Rygor...thats assuming they have one which all Powerhouse events do, its a good meeting point plus you guys wont get mobbed by 14yr old kandi ravers haha |
| ryg0r |
^^^ Good idea but I'm sure there are people who want to meet up that won't be allowed in the bar.
I prefer to meet outside, where you can see and talk  |
| FriedRice |
Well if we meet outside the bar it could work we just need to figure out a time but 1st we need to get the heads up about set times....anybody got any ideas? |

LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION! if the kiddies arent allowed to the bar then where are we gonna meetup? not just anywhere outside! |
| ihaveduff |
i'd say outside the bar, at 4ish? that way the headliners will have done their sets, and *hopefully* will come down to say hi! |

Well, if it was for a small event maybe, but not for a powerhouse event. I think its at The Dome, at least thats what I've heard. |

super coolies... walk down australia avenue and we're there? |
| Ravine |
Argghh but that's gonna be a huuuuuuuuugeeee ass trek. I vote we call a maxi cab to pick us up from the station. |
| jimbooo |
Hahaha it doesn't look a whole lot further than the superdome is from the traino... lets save the cab money for the morning, maybe that way we might beat the queue!
Ok about this traino meetup... where at the traino exactly? it isn't real small, hopefully everyone is on the same train from lidcombe. Our train from da gong gets into central at about 9. |
| Baby700 |
There has been some speculation over the last month that all, or part, of Essential Platinum have pulled out of Utopia.
Does anyone know if this is true? |

| Baby700 |
I'm not there to see them either, but it would be sad to hear they've pulled out. There might also be a mutiny on hand once the kandi kids find out.
Powerhouse aren't confirming/denying, which makes me suspicious.
Guess we'll find out on Saturday night...at the same time as we see the timetable |

Oh dammit! I wanted to see Gammer really badly! I wanted to have him as inspiration to pursue my dreams of hardcore DJing and Producing as he's gotten so far and he's still very very young.
Whereas the rest of you are all old farts.

Do you guys like gettin there from the word go or prefer to be fashionably late?
i think train at 10-10:30 would be good anyone? |
| Ravine |
No way, i prefer to be there right on the dot. See you in line at 10pm. |
| Baby700 |
Ok, so it's just Gammer not coming. Damn. But we still get Dougal and Lisa, so that should still be cool :)
I just found out I get to go in the VIP queue...wOOt... |

I'm keen to meet up, but I think the station @ 10 might be a bit late.
Nevertheless, I am keen for whatever.

Unfortunately I don't get to take pics for ITM. There's a separate photographer who does that! |

yeah i'm with ravine, i'll be up there as early as i can be =) |

Yeah, Luka will take pics of you (whether or not he's official photographer - his pics are so good they go up on ITM anyway!). |

| Baby700 |
Eeekkk...you guys are game putting your mobile up on a public forum!
I'll send you an sms on the night :) |

ITS OFFICIAL!
no Gammer or Lisa Marie!
I took this directly from the website for the perth essential platinum event, so i assume since gammer and lisa arent going to perth they wont be comming the next day up here! makes sence.
ESSENTIAL PLATINUM (Friday 30th June 2006)
In a communication from Powerhouse Productions today we have been advised that due to 'unforseen circumstances' Gammer and Lisa Marie have not been able to come to Australia. However, the show must go on, Dougal has arrived in our fair city and will perform a 2 hour Essential Platinum set tomorrow night. Door sales 10pm 6am. Rise members $5 before 11pm, $10 thereafter. Non members $10 before 11pm, $15 thereafter. |
| Crazyzarc |
Ahh.. that sucks was quite looking forward to seeing Gammer in action. |

='( no lisa marie either... sob sob... |

First up - the rave is indoors, so it will continue if it rains.
Now secondly and most importantly, I talked to silver (personally in the city, we met up and he is looking very well. This is the deal with the meet up:
11pm at the bar.
If you want to meet up with the peeps from Happyhardcore.com, go to the bar at 11pm.
Thats the offical words from the boss. I'll be there fo sho, hopefully storm, in effect and compulsion will be there too (lovely chaps they are). |
| jimbooo |
excellent.
hopefully the line isn't ridiculously long and we don't have to wait an hour to get in or anything. |

Its not like this is echild lol. |
| Baby700 |
Oh man, the consequences of listing your mobile on echild don't bare thinking about! |
| SNYKE |
Great so bar at 11pm :D Hope to see you there. But umm what about us <18 HHC'ers? |
| Ravine |
Anyhoo my number is 0410 620 566. Nick_12 should have it and now you guys do =D.
I'm not as excited for Utopia as i was before. I just bought a pair of Shure M447s and a whole bunch of new scratch records. I'm leaving them playing on endless grooves for tonight to break them in and tomorrow it's hardcore scratching(as in scratching to hardcore) and then some beatjuggling. Maybe some hardcore beatjuggling! I'll post a mix up soon aswell.
Oh man DJing = fun but you gotta have the money. |
| Cotts |
yeah ravine tell me about it, i just forked out a little under 3k for two Pioneer CDJ-800 MK2's.
Finally my set up is complete! but as you said. Hella Expensive. |
| Baby700 |
Less than 12 hrs to go now! |

You got tables aswell? What mixer do you have? I was looking at the DJM400 yesterday and god i want one. Right now i'm using a cheap Stanton mixer. |
| skattakid |
Pump the **** Up!!! omg, just over 10 hours to go!!!
See you all there at some point!!!
this event symbolises 10 years of raving for me, so let's all party hard!!! |
| jimbooo |
Yeehaw! I love being psyched for a rave!
I'm heading up to a mates birthday bbq this arvo, then straight up to Homebush so i'll see you guys at the bar at 11!
Ravine, i'll see you in the line man as we have your ticket =P |
| FluxZero |
Man im pumped, its nearly time for some serious dancing.
BTW what time does it start??? Cant seem to find it anywhere, I asume
it starts around 10/11???
Hay SNYKE for those under 18 i would surgest you meet out side the bar entrence??? just a thought. |
| Cotts |
Hey guys just a question and i need an answer really soon if im going to make it!
This is my situation.
I was going with 5 mates, got all the tickets, and now due to circumstances (each one different, broken ankle etc...) 4 of them cannot go.
Now i am left with 5 tickets and wondering if its worth me going to this event or not.
Should i come up by myself and just go anyway? (drive from canberra to sydney and back keep in mind).
Should i just go to scalp tickets and try to make up some losses. I have no idea if i should go or not?
What do you guys think? |
| Cotts |

I got a pioneer DJM 707, i bought it becuase it was cheap for what it was. I picked it up for $650 as it was a discontinued model. It did eveything i wanted and it was really tough.

What do you guys think?
Stil come along! I've got friends that need tickets. How much are you willing to sell them for?
|
| Cotts |
well i bought them all from tiketek for $74, but really whatever mate, as long as it justifies me driving up really. Um i guess 40 or so each?
The latest i can probably start driving is 5 but the sooner i know whats going on the better really
but yeah i would probably go if i could recover some losses, let me know what you want to do. |
| Ravine |
You should probably come up anyways cus you'll find a way to get rid of your tickets. |
| Cotts |
true that. But the only reason im thinking otherwise is becuase it will cost me like 70 in fuel - $70 for the hotel thats 140, even if i sold like 3 tix i would just make that up. Like you know what i mean?, I really want to go, it just sucks by yourself.
I could meet up with some of you guys up there. |
| 1up |
dude! fook the hotel! drive to a quiet suburb and just park infront of someones house and nap! |
| SNYKE |
Yeah c'mon Cotts a quiet suburb like chatswood ;) and if you don't come up i won't be able to give you money :p |
| 1up |
fairfield or liverpool will do ok... actually maybe outer liverpool will do great! access to the hume highway after ur nap. |

Im going to decide in the next 30 mins if im going or not. I have a few hours before i have to leave to get there by 10. Hmm decisions decisions. |
| ryg0r |
Don't be an idiot.
Come. We'll hang out and have a good time. Sell the rest of the tickets and you'll make a tidy profit AND have a wicked time.
It should make up for me not coming down to canberra and playing pool! |
| Cotts |
ok im coming, but keep an eye out and say hi! cos ill be by myself. Ill start driving now ok? |
| ryg0r |
Cool man. I don't have any credit, you'll need to be calling me every 5minutes LOL! |
| Cotts |
ok im getting in the car now! catch you all there! |
| gobbo23 |
unfortunatly it doesn't look like i will be able to make it which is very disapointing, You all enjoy yourself and have a good night |
| 1up |

| 1up |

| skattakid |
PUMP THE FUK UP!!!!
just leavin now, c u all there!!! |
| Ravine |
What a night that was ey? The whole meetup in the beginning, group photos, beginner shuffling lessons by FriedRice(seriously expected you to be asian) lessons etc etc. The night went by pretty fast and it was hectic for the whole time.
After that night, i'm sure to go out and buy a pair of earplugs as god i've got tinnitus right now from all the music. The music was great but i'd like to keep my hearing in the long run.
It was completely awesome being the back for Silver's set(still reckon you shoulda jammed some Japanese hardcore, everyone's on drugs, they won't care) and watching the Soccer while jamming to awesome tunes. But bloody hell! Who left their spilt Jack n Coke on the wall facing the laptop! It got all over my arse! I didn't realise i had it on me because the heater was so damn warm and that diverted my attention away.
Anyways everybody should rest up, especially Silver, In-Effect and Storm after those beautiful performances. Ryg0r, it was awesome chatting to you, you're a legend. It was pretty calm once it was about 6-7 and sitting back there (thanks to you hah) was very relaxing. During that time i took this recovery pill kind of thing that's pretty much a Boost Juice in a pill with all the vitamins and shit so that should help the recovery. If you can't get something like that to help with the rest, a fruit juice does wonders.
Alright enough rambling. Everyone get some rest and we'll see each other again at another rave =). |
| Cotts |
TOP TOP TOP NIGHT!!!!!!!!!
Im so glad I went. Cheers for the happyhardcore.com crew that made it what it was.
It was awesome meeting up with you lot, rygor, silver, friedrice, 1up, ravine, snyke, i have duff, baby700 and for those of you that I met but cant remember cheers for the night! I met so many people from hhc.com and had a blast.

That was skattakid! It even said so on his ID card
It was a wicked night. Really cool to meet a lot of you guys. I'm sorry about not talking much towards the end of the night Ravine, I just got really cold and tired. My feet got sore from stomping so hard to the point that it hurt to shift really slowly every where. It was good to see that Cotts made it up in the end too, I got a bit worried on that one!
I kinda wish I spent more time chatting to you guys hanging out, but its almost impossible to talk at the back of the main arena!!
I think I already miss you guys *awww!!* You still can harass me on msn though - [email protected] |
| SNYKE |
RAWR! Awesome night guys, TOO BAD you had to leave early Cotts. It was good meeting all of you. What was everyone's favourite set of the night? Mine personally was a toss up between in-effect and dougal. :D :D
Note: I was really only there for the dodgy food van XD |
| ryg0r |
I went to see compulsion instead of dougal hey. He kept the room going ab-so-freaking-lute-ly bananas.
In Effect was a champion too. |
| Cotts |
Yeah same deal ryg0r would have liked to talk more but its hard in there!. We were trying to follow you guys into the arena with compulsion but we lost you on the way there!
Yeah but i left a bit early, like ryg0r i was cold and tired also my feet hurt!. I would have stayed right through to seven but i had that drive ahead of me (so glad thats over).
But still, awesome night glad everyone met up and ill be sure to throw you on msn sam. |
| import |
****ing awesome night!!!!
so glad i conjured up the 75 bucks to go (not including treats...)
great sets by everyone... especially loved Dj Rx's set! That guy was off his nut!!!
cant wait till Prophecy!!! |
| jimbooo |
Friggin awesome night as usual. The only bad part was the line to get in.
I showed up a bit too late to get to the meetup which was a bummer, but still i caught up with friedrice, duff, ravine, Sam, Luka n Silver later on.
Cheers Luka and Sam for letting me and ravine watch silver's set from the back despite some apprehensive seccos hahaha, appreciate that. It was a cool experience + the best seats in the house at that time of the night.
Anyways it was awesome to meet everyone! My everything hurts so i'm gonna watch some scrubs and crash. |
| 1up |
smashing night! =D
hahah got abit confused with the names LOL
was nice too meet all u folks!
alek szahala owned big time! =D ide say his 1hr set smashed technoboy's 2hr set!
sucks the fact that gammer and lisa marie couldnt come... but lisa abbott was great!
ugh! silver u gotta tell me which remix of 24-7 u played! and that song after it! "why worry"? yum yum song!!!
although it was a smashing night some things sucked quite a bit!
walking to and from the venue from the station.
lining up =/
food wasnt that great
toilets were very shitty [literally]
where the hell was the mash up room? i wanted to hear vinylgroover!
smashed up kids
silver not being able to play an extra song! =/ that dude was being an ass.
silver not playing j-core, nor did he play the track i requested =/ LOL i dont blame him though... was smashing anyway!
and where was everyone else at silver's set? i only saw snyke. busy at suae? damn! never got to hear suae... silvers was better still! =D
train station lineup =/ bro lined up but he said he saw a taxi. when we walked to the hotel it wasnt there. we walked back to the station and it was packed! but finally we decided to get a taxi and walked back to the hotel =/
edit: ravine ur 18? woah looked like we were the same age! |
| 1up |
couldnt bring my camera =/ stuck with the camera on my brother's phone...
couldnt take a pic of lisa abbott =(
here are some decent pics that came out ok
alek szahala:
superman! =D
lasers:
edit: they look too small =/ damn imageshack!
pm me if u want the originals |
| ryg0r |
^^^ I was on stage with In Effect during Silver's set |
| nins |
Had an awesome night!! something very different and it worked well!
Dougal went off hard and so did IMpact.... only went for 20mins with DJ Silver's set becoz gals from my group was complaing that the room was freezing.. told them to dance harder lol Good to see so many ppl going off hard like i was ! hahaha The lasers were very nicely done..
THe only complaint i had was the sound and bass wasnt loud enough in the main room in comparison to the other 'freezing' room...
Overall great night except seeing two ppl getting carried out by stretchers :(
|
| dafidav |
i thought it was a mediocre nite
the weather was nuts, so damn cold, but dancing hard made it warmer :D
no cloak room sucked big time, i had to constantly look after our bags and belongings
no gammer and lisa marie
i loved Impact's set and lisa abbott
my group didnt go to the other room where HHC was being pumped, so that was a bummer
overall an ok rave, could have been better |
| FriedRice |
Haha for all you guys who feet hurt from stompin its time to learn to shuffle :P
Night was good, got to see silvers set which i was stoked about but spent most the night with the shufflin crew which was awesome.
Must say the sound being turned down by complaints of novatel was a joke but what can ya do and only other REAL complaint was the amount of ppl just so fooked up on too many drugs they sat/stood there doing nothing...that really gets to me coz i know i was shufflin my arse off all night and have improved sooo much
Awesome meetin you guys big ups to Cotts for showin man *claps* and to rygor & Silver for takin the time to meet us cheers fellas, scattakid for the awesome shots and finally to everybody else who met up great to meet yas all and hopefully seeya at the next event :) |
| ihaveduff |
It was a good night, better than alot that i've been to, but not as good as powerhouse is capable of. Lasers were awesome as were most of the dj's sets... i kinda gravitated towards the cooler room because it was louder, i could hardly hear the music in the main room... smegging novotel stupid place for a hotel...
There were alot of people ODing which was a downer... i'd put that partly to people trying to cash in with bad pills after the police bust on one of the big sydney labs the week before. That woulda put a big dent in a few peoples nights causing them to buy at the rave... I must say RESPECT to the powerhouse crew for stopping the music to warn everyone about the bad pills, AND identifying them, according 2 the SMH webbie, 8 were taken to hospital...
anyway, the HHC meet was awesome!! was great meeting silver, rygor, 1up, ravine, snyke and baby700 and whoever else i danced into!!!
and friedrice, get the stomp down ;)
i'll get my pics up in the next few days... didnt take to many because my camera ran outta batteries  |
| jimbooo |

yes that was shocking, hopefully the media attention doesn't spark a crackdown on the rave scene or anything like that. There's usually little or no mishaps like that, lets hope it doesn't happen again! |
| Compulsion |
wicked night, wicked ravers!
didnt want the night to end :)
|
| Cotts |
so many people were blasted that night and just out of it, here was the article, dug it up. Just hope one day events dont get even more supressed, I mean its a concert turn the music down!? its just getting annoying.

Ahh righto, ravers are hard to come by down here! We always seem to be the only ones on the train... I'm from Balgownie, up the road from the pub :) hahaha oh man rustys i've only ever been there semi-conscious. Very questionable joint to say the least. |

legend! lol |
| Baby700 |
Utopia...hmm...fun was had, yes :)
Technoboy was solid. Not as good as Isaac or Zany, but probably ranks as my 3rd fav international hardstyle set to date. Thrilled he dropped War Machine!
Organ Donors were the highlight. Set of the night. They also dropped my #1 song of the moment...Walt - Let The Music Play (massive choon).
Glad I saw the You're Shining live PA performance.
Venue...yeah...I prefer the Superdome. Sound was fine down the front, but got lost in the cavernous space towards the back.
Lovely to meet some HHC members :) |

Gotta agree, the venue wasnt great and the sound in the main room really brought the night down i would take superdome over it for sure |

Good to meet all of you guys, the 11pm meetup was a little hard seeing the line outside the venue was miles long. Still good to meet up and take photos and chit chat to the people than did manage to get to the later meetup.
Was a great party, only downside was it was freaking cold, I had fog breath (what do you call that?) DJing up on stage which was interesting at 5am... great stuff :)
Delayed post because I only got back today :) |

Yeah it was cold as hell. Walking from Arena to Arena felt as if there was a freezer that connected them and you had to go through that to get to the other room.
Must have been at most 10 degrees. |
