5 pics taken from HTV rushes. |
 |
Police talk to the party people |
 |
At the begining of the night the police had all the
roads blocked. |
 |
This is where we drove through with no worries at all
at about 11pm |
 |
Eventualy they let people through to the rave. |
 |
Arriving with Roger at the party in Steart, driving
down the lane we hit the main que of cars! |
 |
not sure how many, but it was just like the convoys
we used to be in years ago in the early 90's |
 |
not sure how long we qued for so we could park, but
it was ages |
 |
The police gave up in the end, I'm not sure what they
were doing on the beach in 2 riot vans. |
 |
The could not have done a lot with thousands of people
turning up like that. |
 |
Following the convoy of cars, people were parking up
at this point, but we didnt want to walk! |
 |
We parked pretty close to the rave and managed to get
blocked in for a while, not as bad as some people though, all weekend!
learnt from our earlier raving days. |
 |
Walked past a few smaller systems till we got to the
main party, a jungle sound system greeted us, small but loud |
 |
a shot of the crowd with still more people arriving
and parking up, no idea how or when they left! |
 |
Everyone was going for it from a early stage, we must
have arrived at about 12pm, found some not all that good stuff and
had a dance. |
 |
Had to use my nightvisio to get some pics which was
a shame, hard to film and take pics with a normal camera though. |
 |
One of the sound systems had their DJ pearched on top
of a pebbled bank, no moniter or anything! |
 |
a shot of one of the many sound systems that were set
up, some were really good, lots of effort put into them. |
 |
Projections onto sides of vans, huge speaker stacks
too. |
 |
Another shot, closer up, of the party above. this was
on the other side of the watery devide. |
 |
Most of the sound systems were playing techno, some
of it hard and rough, some like this one, pretty good stuff. stayed
here for a while. |
 |
Another night vision shot of the same party. |
 |
One of the best parties on site, maybe not the best
sound system or lights, but the music was just great, stayed here
most of the night. |
 |
The party was bang in the middle of the site at a major
crossroads, so everyone who passed by stopped and partied. |
 |
It was pretty dam loud and the sound quality was good
too, but the tunes, well just the best techno. |
 |
Positive Energy on the projection.
|
 |
Fire dancers had a spot near, what i was told to be,
the Spiral Tribe system. |
 |
The girl was dam good with loads of people standing
around looking on. |
 |
She was there on both the nights i visited in the same
spot, relaly good to trip out to. |
 |
Everyone seemed to be having a wicked time, some bubbly
girls turned up and danced the night away |
 |
This guy had totaly lost it, we think lol. he was banging
the caravan, then later on he was rolling around on the floor at the
jungle system! |
 |
One the DJ's at the jungle sound system. |
 |
This is the guy again, lost the plot! |
 |
This was some VERY tall girl. |
 |
Back to the main party again, dancing away with Roger,
the only person who wanted to or could go to the rave. Same weekend
as Homelands, and it was boiling! |
 |
Again the lights were not great, but it took you back
to hte old days, these guys really pulled it off! |
 |
Loads of people, from different backgrounds. this was
the first proper rave i'd been to for a very long time, fantastic! |
 |
Some reports say upto 10,000 were at this party! |
 |
I would have said nearer 3,000 tops. |
 |
Lots of nice people there, all smiling and having a
great time. |
 |
Lots of cyber pepole too all togged up in LCD's etc |
 |
Looks pretty good, and its better than glow sticks |
 |
It brings people up, so its good. |
 |
Looking at the site from afar, its just mental. you
have a nuclear power staion in the backgound. |
 |
Loads and loads of sound systems all pumping out music
and lights. Who knows what the workers thought at the power station.
Mr Burns would not be happy. |
 |
Some of the equipment was hardcore! when we used to
go partying it was nothing as good as this, people have invested a
lot of money into these rigs. |
 |
Mixing it up at Tribe of Munt i think |
 |
Quality sound system and music, loads of people dancing
at this one. |
 |
Dj's sorting out thier next tunes |
 |
Pumping out some loud bangng tunes. |
 |
Really good sound qaulity makes the party was it is. |
 |
Thats why u have to donate some cash to the rig. |
 |
Nightvision again, just everyone enjoying themselves.
There was no bad vibe at all at this festival, no bad boys, no attitude,
good clean fun. |
 |
Morning comes and you can see a lot of messy people,
everyone knows its the worst time, the magic disapears with the sun. |
 |
People leave but come back later like yourselves, well
we were only about 30-40 mins away. |
 |
People still up as they stagger back to their warm cars. |
 |
Not sure what happened here, could have just been a
broken ankle from those dam pebbles. |
 |
Sun comes up and we escape at about 6am after being
boxed in for ages by some hippy army truck! |
 |
Herbie turns up when we return at about 7pm on sunday
evening with Sister, Jim and Roger again. |
 |
People hanging and staggering back to thier cars or
home. always a sight in the mornings or evening in this case. |
 |
A couple of girlies walk along the beach. |
 |
Bet they took some cleaning! |
 |
People just chilling out. Extended Bank Holiday, so
people just stayed for more partying. |
 |
Even managing to play footy, better than the England
squad anyway. |
 |
Looking down the track that led to the party. |
 |
Hinkley Point glowing in the background |
 |
Would not have got in the sea like some people did,
have to be mad! |
 |
The site was big, not as mad as Castle Morton, no where
near. |
 |
Little hippie kids enjoying the music. No little shits
who splashed water on Steve and John like at CM. |
 |
In a way this lifestyle is like a film set, Blade Runner
or something, especialy at night. |
 |
People passed out, coming down, dead LOL, casulties
everywhere. |
 |
The tide is out, but it didnt stop some people. The
weather stayed warm, it didnt rain which was nice, although it threatened
it all weekend. |
 |
Mixing it up, chaning records at Tribe of Munt. |
 |
Great sound system, it was so loud and clear, no distortion.
its hard to pick that up on the video. |
 |
A Will look-a-like gets down to the music. |
 |
Professional set up, respect to these guys for putting
up the system. |
 |
Looking back to one of the sounf systems, think the
small jungle one which was at the entrance to the site |
 |
Tribe of Munt, one of the bets systems on site, very
loud and high quality sound |
 |
Selling goodies |
 |
lovely location, no mud or anything |
 |
People dancing away on sunday afternoon |
 |
Dam pebbles, didnt see anyone fall over, but guess lots
did in the dark |
 |
Dazed and confused |
 |
Chilling out and getting ready for another nights partying |
 |
Apparently this was Spiral Tribe back again, even louder
than Munts system, very nice music |
 |
Some london party people |
 |
Another small sound system playing gabba |
 |
These guys ended up playing Five, its on video! |
 |
a shot of some of the systems |
 |
Not sure what these guys were upto, but they looked
confused. |
 |
Walking to the next sound systm |
 |
Didnt go into this one, time was not on our side, had
to shoot back home. |
 |
Good system, lovely music for a sunday. |
 |
People dancing away |
 |
Didnt notice what this guy was upto till i zoomed out,
doh! |
 |
Could have stayed here longer. |
 |
Good set up, lots of effort gone into it, the music
when this was taken was good, later on it went onto hard gabba stuff. |
 |
Smoke machine working overtime |
 |
Looked good |
 |
and pretty loud too. |
