Going through the change!! There is alot of things being said about clubbing at the mo! Some good some bad, In my honest opinion it think what is happening is music and clubbing in general is going through a change as it has done MANY times b4.. a new era in clubbing is fastly approaching, nobody knows where it will end up, but one thing is certain when it does land on its feet we will have to live with it. like it or not... Music evolves all the time, and as i said b4 clubbing will be arse over tits untill it finds its future Neil
Well Said ! If i had went clubbing at the time that i wanted to of which was about the time when Trance Nation 1 came out then i think by now i would be able to say the same - i aint really witnessed alot changes wise but its not hard to see now maybe clubs going monthly is a good thing as much as people will have less to do - it does mean that come the night which is designated to that month then all are to make sure its a quality one !
Im pleased you see this way.. music has always found itself in the past where it wants to be and it will again.. people have to realise where music came from in the past to know where its going in the future..
but its when people want to hold on to the past, and dont want to except the change, that will hold back moving on into the future... and clubland seems to have a lot of these people.
i agree neil! i wish clubbin was like it was when i first started goin! peeps were much more entusiastic bout the way the music made them feel! i wish peeps felt like that nowadays! hope the future gets better and more diverse!

That was 99 - this is 2003, the clubs are still charging the same price to get into the place, the Dj's are still wanting mega bucks to play at a club, but the novelty's wore off, and people are moving on, finding new things to do, and the new breed of clubbers arnt wanting what was on offer in 99 -. Theres lots of types of music out there, and clubs do cater for everyones needs.. Clublands changing, the clubs arnt
