Exactly. Hard and expensive to get to for most! And there aren't usually raves there. London or quote:
Birmingham are very cheap and easy to get to on the other hand no matter where you live.
brought in 2013 there and I was blown away with how good a night it was, MASSIVE!
The Q club was the only venue I've been to where i actually did not like the venue at all. Also way too many security there.
When were you there? I've heard stories how there used to be an issue with security a few years back but can't say I noticed too many bouncers at new year. The q club is actually in my opinion the best rave venue I've been to, one of the loudest clearest sound systems I've ever heard and everything about it is just huge.
I recall the sound in the main room being pretty good actually. This was back in 2008 though or so. Maybe 2007 even. The security was way over the top. At every doorway, on every corner. Very oppressive.
TBH the only people who notice or complain about the excess security are the ones who are doing something they're not supposed to lol
Right. Which is a lot of people! Either way though i don't care to be in an environment where people are waiting for you to do something wrong. It's like being at school lol.

I do actually remember people on another forum roughly around that period of time complaining about security at the Q club. New year just gone was the first time I'd ever been there and I loved it, had no problem whatsoever with security and the atmosphere was just amazing. Everyone was up for a party and the venue was perfect for it.

By the way I'm not implying that i wouldn't want to go back. Was just commenting on how bad it was for me at the time.

Well if it's going to happen we should try and get something concrete planned. With my luck with attending events this year i can see me packing it all in very soon. Be good to go out with a bang though ;-)

Can't be bothered to read through the thread to see if it has been mentioned but what about the HTID v Dreamscape Summer Gathering in Northampton.
Top line-up with plenty of oldskool, slightly better deal for the Southerners but....
Here's the Facebook link...

Looks like there is plenty of older hardcore there to keep the outdated ones from here interested.

There's already a possibility i'm going to that anyway! Northampton is a total **** on to get to from Middlesbrough, but i've got a mate that lives in Oxford which is apparently not that far away.

Northampton should be easy to get to providing Birmingham is also easy to get to.

a quick check on the train line gives me
London - no changes ?77, 3 hour journey
northampton - 3 changes - 4 hour journey time - ?75
bad enough just having to spend 3 hours on a train home after a rave, but a 4 hour journey with no option of rest, after being up for 36 hours including a rave, yeah - it's doable...but christ, it'd have to be worth my while ;)
