siren-horns in the crowd at DJ events: classic or dud

what were some other tasty/tacky rave gimmicks.

the island of jamaica might disagree with you

when the mc politely asks the horns massive to blow them

Sub-thread: Horns Crew vs Whistle Crew?

I like the sirens, but like I say within the tunes, and there is a standard of quality.

good siren-x-press 2-muzik x press

fucking godawful johnny moy siren-cylone-lord of the land.

the bad ones are like those little blower things you get at childrens parties

it's a totally different scene in London, I was pretty surprised I must say.

it was tough to even listen to weatherall, the club was shit and filthy, but the other room had such a good crowd it made it great, whereas weatherall's room was just desolate.

I don't believe it'll close, but I suspect everywhere is going to be shutting at 2.30 or 3 soon, what a pisser, have to sort our parties. It's a bit depressing, it was getting great when tivoli went on till 5 and shit.

It's a pain in the face trying to suggest that letting places open as long as they want is the only way to break the "lets meet at 8, drink till we get kicked out at 12.30, go to the chipper at 1, go home" cycle which almost everyone in Dublin has. Tough times for clubbing ahead I reckon, as much as it pisses me off to say it.

Yeah free parties might be the way forward.

i think that pubs should be allowed stay open as late as they want,so that people aren't all drinking as much as they can then ending up drunk on the streets at the same time,looking for the same taxis,etc,which is only going to cause more fights...

but that's not an arguement that is going to work any time soon,the current thinking is that pubs should close earlier,which is just stupid...

however,in the meantime,i would like to see more police on the streets at night actually stopping fights...
i mean,the main priority of the police force should be stopping the citizens from getting attacked,anything else,(drugs,pickpockets,underage drinkers,clubs staying open late,whatever)should be secondary
unfortunately,the police that are out at night in ireland seem more concerned with whistling at girls,harrassing people on drugs,and avoiding fights than anything else

i mean i've been on my way to play football at one in the morning and had police step over people fighting on the ground in order to search us,when we're clearly sober and there are people vomiting on/punching each other everywhere

and making clubs the scapegoats is good for publicity,so it probably will continue,stupid as it is...

In alot of ways it's something which shows the problems of democracy and the Irish system of it, each government has to be seen to do something so the sensible way to deal with it, ie a long term plan to actually re-educate people and break the culture, will never happen because the people want that elusive scarlet pimpernell they call "action" or "resolutions" and the government want to be seen to give it to them.

As you say the real way to do things is let pubs open whenever they want, that way you smash up the routine side of weekend drinking, it is just far more sensible. I don't agree either with the people who say that would make Ireland go mad and we'd all be out on the piss 24/7, people still have to work, and most won't want to be out all night anyway.
