[...] book. Informal check-in procedure, five restaurants, FREE mini bar selection. But where’s my industrial strip lighting above the bed?! Stayed here while in town to play at Cargo for the Next-Men’s album launch [...]

Speaking of “simulated” rooms: The hotel room at the end of 2001: A Space Oddessy. Check out the book for a far more detailed description than what is shown in the film. Weird.

Definately I’ll second that, good night at rainbow warehouse you played a quality set. The setup on the dancefloor was better being tiered.

Also the YouTube hype you created when you dropped The “in for the kill” remix @ Stealth, nottingham a few months ago and nobody knew you’d done a remix! Was front row for that set!!

Cheers

Heh, I was at that event you played at. Was an awesome night and thank you for playing some great music. I hadn’t been out to a drum and bass gig in almost a year, and that night was a great kick in the ‘nads to remind me what I’ve been missing.

Living in Birmingham, I’d say yeah – you picked one of the more terrible places to stay. What makes it even more laughable is they’ve apparently had a refurb going on for around 6 years…

All about The Royal York (or Royal Yrk as the sign reads) in the Isle Of Wight. A hotel which cheekily brands itself as ’60′s inspired’ , meaning the cheeky scamps haven’t bothered redecorating it for the past forty years!

However, the place isn’t without it charm, if you’re into tv remotes on a wire and frankfurters with your english breakfast then it’s da joint !!

I’ve stayed there myself. Its the single most depressing hotel in the world. I feel your pain.
