i think we sometimes have a hard time understanding each other on this board -- i.e., americans and english . . . . i understand that hardcore, jungle, etc, were "massive" working class and people's movements in england, unifying all races around music, etc, etc -- and yet at same time, i find...

Hate to be going up against the "Pure Fire" party, but it's impossible to do a night in NYC w/o competing against somebody whose party you'd otherwise go to . . . . Of course, it's not in truth a competition, and we do different kinds of music anyway. We're just around corner from SubTonic...
