Red alert

Red alert
It's a long time since I've been to one of these proper rave jobs, but it was Cookie's birthday bash, and joining him and the crowd in going along seemed like a mighty fine idea when we spilled out of the bar, even though I had to cough twenty notes to a tout to get in. The do, called "Bugged Out", was in a warehouse in Hearn St, off Curtain Road in Shoreditch. "Too Many DJs" played along with various hard/electro-house types, and it was a pretty decent set-up. Proper dirty warehouse with no frills, but what was there was solid; just a shit-hot sound system, couple of podia, some robo-scans (YEEAHH) and other lighting things I don't know the names of, decent bogs, just-about-bearably-priced drinks (three and a half quid for a beer) and genuinely friendly, unstressed barfolk. Fun.

Jolly friendly police chap and Molly is gorgeous, although she didn't seem to want to sit still for a photo. Good job I didn't have any drugs or bombs on me, otherwise no doubt she'd have torn my throat out as quick as look at me
