Well im suppose to be running a coach to it its Tribal Sessions on a friday and possibly a night they do on a Saturday the Discoteque. Would anybody be up for it ?

£25 travel and entry, its a lot more easy than driving or having to stop in a hotel. Please let me know if anyone would be up for it

That's what I was thinking, I used to go all the time when it first kicked off and never saw or heard anything of the sort. :huh:

Re the OP though - as I said, I've not been for years, not since the refit, but you gotta go just for the Phazon soundsystem, it's the beefiest thing you've ever heard but so clear you can stand between the stacks and still hold a conversation.

Sankeys is absolutly belting. Wicked sound system and lighting and usually really good lineups

I like the venue and the soundsystem, but I've been 3 or 4 times now and haven't liked the music. Maybe I'm not down with the kids.

I doubt it, it'd be interesting to see a breakcore/IDM/Digital Hardcore would play out with the regulars at Sankys
