Report - Boddingtons Brewery - 13/05/06

[Azubi]

Paid a visit to the Boddingtons Brewery in Manchester along with Radioman, BenWRX and Spook. Access was interesting especially with it being in the middle of Manchester and a Police Helicopter nailing it around the area.
Once in the place was in pretty much mint condition albeit with everything stickered up for the autioneer's hammer. Covered quite a bit of the place, unfortunately I didn't see the limo that Snappel and Damon saw though
We did find the sampling room with beer in it! However it was locked up and we couldn't get in... Dispite the fact I was rather paranoid about getting busted, hence why Radioman has now named me "PIR Man", the trip went pretty smoothly and I had a good time.

Anyway, here is some pics...

MISSING in Manchester present: Vibealite & Goodtimes Classic House & Oldskool Hardcore

Vibealite has for twelve years been at the forefront of hosting massive multi-arena dance events in the UK and world wide. They need no introduction! For this unique event vibealite will be hosting Warehouse Two together with goodtimes, bringing you the classic uplifting piano house sounds of Life@Bowlers and the immense breakbeat classics of the oldskool hardcore, an education in the epic music that created the rave scene in the beginning. The line-up speaks for itself!


THE WAREHOUSES: The Warehouse Project comprises two massive warehouses, the main arena being even bigger than the legendary Sanctuary warehouse was (RIP). The second warehouse is also truly epic in its proportions. This is possibly the last chance there will ever be to hear hardcore and oldskool played in a warehouse venue in the UK. The buildings are only available as a music venue for three months and MISSING have an exclusive agreement to hold THE ONLY HARDCORE EVENT AT THIS AMAZING VENUE! Since this is a once in a lifetime chance to recreate the legendary warehouse raves of the 1990s, we will be pulling out all the stops to make this the most spectacular show you will ever see!

So where is it? The warehouses form part of the former Boddingtons Brewery, conveniently and centrally located right next to Manchester Victoria Train & Tram Station… YES THAT'S RIGHT IT REALLY IS A PISS-UP IN A BREWERY!

The event will run for a full TEN HOURS - 8pm-6am on Friday 20th October with fully licenced bars right up to 6am. Soundsystems will be state of the art and mind-blowingly loud, yet of extremely high quality. There will be full stage shows, ultra high power lasers and pyrotechnics through the night in both warehouses, plus a massive light show!
