we popped in late, on account of doing some mix or other, can't or the life of me think who it was for :scratch:

Anyways, was nice to see people, have a beer (thanks karl), and generally survey the wreckage.

Very civilised. Nice one 8) Thanks to those who made it so :thumbright:

no that was the year after me...

it was mike? and co who got shafted i think (veggie bar kiwi crew)

they helped out with clean up and gear movements during my second party...

I got pissed off with the way people didn't clean up thier own mess...

its public space and people often fail to respect that. makes em seem like spoilt brats

You'd be proud of melbeats peeps then especially, CJ, Kronz, J-gal and a couple of others whoe ensured there was no mess left afterwards. Props.

I was referring to Saturday just gone. For what its worth I really enjoyed the orphans parties and appreciated being able to rock down after work for a few drinks and some tunes. Quality way to spend xmas with mates and meet new freaks. Good times. Cheers for your efforts bro.

While strictly not an orphan, im from the country used to work in Hospitality so getting down there during christmas can be hard sometimes.

So yeah, I went to one i think about 3 years ago now, only about 30-40 people there, was a nice day,though played some tuneage there that year and someone managed to steal my headphones (which i had borrowed from my housemate) so yeah, merry fucking Xmas :x

you ate the food Direktor? i was always scared of it - but then again it was usually sweltering heat. i used to live next to the Indian restaurant across from the Tankers. they set the stage up right outside my front door one year. geez that was fun :roll:

still, my housemate and i did try come up with ideas to profit from said annoyance, such as selling beer. amusing times.
