The Warehouse was always over-rated IMO, I didn't like the bouncers either, they thought they were gangsta's! Ricky's AKA Gallery was where we'd head for after a few beers on the way in student land. The Uni held SOAK and KAOS nights and suddenly it became 'en vogue' to produce arty and expensive fliers, in fact, in my youth i printed a few flyers for those nights.

Then there was the Chocolate Factory, later re-named the Music Factory, a proper poncey spot full to the gills with posers, but that's the direction everything went in. By 1993 the novelty had worn off and everything had gone too 'mainstream'.

yeah thats right mate,Kaos night started at rickys spin it around and Soak was born,my mate did the reunions for these nights not long back i also went to the Gallery reunions what Luigi put on one was in Rickys old place one in mint and rest were upstairs were the Gallery balcony was now its and shit shop and rickys is a food/bar mental all these new kids on the block eating burgers and fancy clothing on have no idea of the mad time 20 odd years ago were going on sweat rolling on the roof ect vicks Es mmmmmmmm feeeellll the ruuuussshhh.

We used to get pilled up in the woods with a stereo dancing round a fire they were the best nights for me.

Our nearest spot was a club called Oscars on Clacton pier, for a short period in the 90's it became renowned for it's all nighter's......

These particular nights became legendary.......at it's peak.... They had 5 rooms, plus opening the Aquarium, waltzer & dodgems......

The aquarium became the ultimate chill out room ....& you could reach over & stroke a stingray while on snowballs.......lol

I met people in there from all over the country during those all nighter's...........amazing nights, I'm shaking just writing this!
