The dance tent was pretty disappointing last year. Nobody was really 'avin it.

[Charlie369 10]

when is it going to be?

[BEX_DEVJAM 10]

Your right, no one was really 'having it' in the dance tent, but I'm afraid this was down to the crowd- not the dj's! we had all the residents from UG and tuesday club so the line up wasn't that poor. This year I'm gonna be mixing it up a bit more in the dj tent- so hopefully it will be more to your liking! Bex

Hi Bex..

 

Its Chris, i played first (reggae) in the dance tent last year. To be honest, and in my puddle poor opinion, it was too loud in the dance tent. I'm as guilty as anyone else, but DJs just tend to turn it up to 11 because they're playing records they love, and it is quite enough to scare most people off. I didnt spend much time in there myself because I had invited loads of friends down, we actually wanted to talk, so we sat outside. If it had been a little quieter, we would have loved to sit on the grass in the dance tent, and had a boogie when we felt like it.

 

My advice is, ask the DJs to keep it down (within reason) and up the volume when enough people are dancing.

 

Looking forward to this years do!

 

nicely chris. xo
