My
most
memorable
moment
at…
at
the
Blackburn
raves…
there’s
so
many
I
mean
every
party
either
felt
like
the
most
amazing
thing
you’ve
ever
seen
in
your
life
but
to
try
and
think
of
a
memorable
moment.
I
mean
really
the
probably
the
one
of
the
most
incredible
moment
of
my
life
was
meeting
Jonathan
Donaghey.
Who
I
formed
together
with
and
I’m
remember…
remember
crystal
clear
the
moment.
I
met
him.
I
also…
What…
what
was
the
party
called?
Ewood
Mill
and
just
being
most
excitable
person
in
the
world
and
it
was
quite
a
good
match
of
personalities
really.
I
did
my
silly
noise
to
him.
What
was
really
just
an
impression
of
Max
Headroom
a
computer-generated
character
of
the
TV
at
the
time
and
it
excited
him
alot
and
he
just
grabbed

round

to
random

I
remember
listening
to
music
and
there
was
Wild
Times
by
Delite…
Derrick
Derrick
Mayes
mix
and
just
hearing
the
bass
pulsing
up
and
down
the
warehouse
was
just
unbelievable.
It
was
just
like
because
these
warehouses
were
massive
and
they
sounded
echo
up
and
down
the
space
and
it
was
just
incredible
and
I
remember
they…
I think
this
was
unique
to
us
Northerner’s
when
the
theme
would
come
on
by
Unique 3
and
I’ve
told
the
guy
from
Unique 3
this
since…
I’m
not
sure
if
he
thought
I was
a
bit
of
a
weirdo…
Edzy
I
mean
what
a
tune
and
just
what
it
started
off…
the
that
….
Everybody
had
to
put
bleeps
and
bass..
sub
basses
in
the
tunes
after
that
and
hadda
massive
effect
on us…
People
would
sing
the
bass
line
do-do-do-do
do-do-do-do-do
and
then,
you
know,
imagine
these
parties
grew
to
10000
people.
There’s
10000
of
us
humming
this
baseline
and
it’d
build
and

you’d
get

and
we’d

we?
didn’t

I
discovered
house
music
about
1986
coulda
even
a
little
bit
before
that.
I
was
about
15
and
it
was
a
combination
of
my
friends
at
school
getting
into
compilations
stuff
like…
the
FFRR
London
record
series
the
House
sound of
Chicago
and
Stu
Allan
who
used
to
play
House
music
on
the
sold-out
show
initially
and
then
it
was
partly
through
being
into
Electro
a few
years
before
it
was
kind
of
a
continuation
of
what
the
latest
electronic
music
was.
So
we’re
all
kind
of
wanting
to
be
B-Boys
and
wanting to
break
dance
when
we were
into
Electro
and
then
that was
starting
to
fizzle
a
little
bit
but then
House
music
came
along
and
just
felt
like
the
freshest
most
exciting
thing
in
the
world
when
that
happened.
I
was
going
to
terrible
clubs
like
Rainbows
in
Oldham
and
Shades
in
Stalybridge.
I
bumped
into
someone
in
the
street
called
Kelvin
and
he
asked
me…
I
mean
literally
just
a
random
stranger
you
come
up
to
me
because
he
liked
my
jumper.
He asked
me
what
kind
of
music
I
was
into
I said
I was
into
House
music
and
we
got
chatting
and
yeah
assumed
that
I
was
going
to
good
clubs
because
of
how
into
music
I
was
and
how
enthusastic
I
was
and
I
was
really
surprised
to
find
that
I
didn’t
go
to
the
Blackburn
raves
or
the
Hacienda
and
he
said
to
me
come
with
me,
to
the
Blackburn
raves
the
Hacienda
and
a
club
called
the
Park
Hall
in
Chorley
And I…
he
gave
me
his
number
and
I
went
and
met
him
that
weekend
and
went
to
all
3
of
them
And it changed
my
life
beyond
anything
I
could
ever
imagine
and
I
pretty
much
never
missed
another
night
again
if
I
get
out
way.
My
most
memorable
moment
at…
at
the
Blackburn
raves…
there’s
so
many
I
mean
every
party
either
felt
like
the
most
amazing
thing
you’ve
ever
seen
in
your
life
but
to
try
and
think
of
a
memorable
moment.
I
mean
really
the
probably
the
one
of
the
most
incredible
moment
of
my
life
was
meeting
Jonathan
Donaghey.
Who
I
formed
together
with
and
I
remember…
remember
crystal
clear
the
moment.
I
met
him.
I
also…
What…
what
was
the
party
called?
Ewood
Mill
and
just
being
most
excitable
person
in
the
world
and
it
was
quite
a
good
match
of
personalities
really.
I
did
my
silly
noise
to
him.
What
was
really
just
an
impression
of
Max
Headroom
a
computer-generated
character
of
the
TV
at
the
time
and
it
excited
him
alot
and
he
just

me

me

again
if
I
get
out
way.
My
most
memorable
moment
at…
at
the
Blackburn
raves…
there’s
so
many
I
mean
every
party
either
felt
like
the
most
amazing
thing
you’ve
ever
seen
in
your
life
but
to
try
and
think
of
a
memorable
moment.
I
mean
really
the
probably
the
one
of
the
most
incredible
moment
of
my
life
was
meeting
Jonathan
Donaghey.
Who
I
formed
together
with
and
I
remember…
remember
crystal
clear
the
moment.
I
met
him.
I
also…
What…
what
was
the
party
called?
Ewood
Mill
and
just
being
most
excitable
person
in
the
world
and
it
was
quite
a
good
match
of
personalities
really.
I
did
my
silly
noise
to
him.
What
was
really
just
an
impression
of
Max
Headroom
a
computer-generated
character
of
the
TV
at
the
time
and
it
excited
him
alot
and
he
just
grabbed
me
and
took
me
round
to…
to
random
people
to
do
my
noise
to
them,
which
I
didn’t
mind
doing
age
17
18,
really
excitable
little
kid
I
was.
I
remember
listening
to
music
and
there
was
Wild
Times
by
Delite…
Derrick
Derrick
Mayes
mix
and
just
hearing
the
bass
pulsing
up
and
down
the
warehouse
was
just
unbelievable.
It
was
just
like
because
these
warehouses
were
massive
and
they
sounded
echo
up
and
down
the
space
and
it
was
just
incredible
and
I
remember
they…
I think
this
was
unique
to
us
Northerner’s
when
the
theme
would
come
on
by
Unique 3
and
I’ve
told
the
guy
from
Unique 3
this
since…
I’m
not
sure
if
he
thought
I was
a
bit
of
a
weirdo
Edzy
I
mean
what
a
tune
and
just
what
it
started
off…
the
that
….
Everybody
had
to
put
bleeps
and
bass..
sub
basses
in
the
tunes
after
that
and
hadda
massive
effect
on us…
People
would
sing
the
bass
line
do-do-do-do
do-do-do-do-do
and
then,
you
know,
imagine
these
parties
grew
to
10000
people.
There’s
10000
of
us
humming
this
baseline
and
it’d
build
and
build
and
build…
you’d
get
louder
and
we’d
sing
it
over
everything
didn’t
we?
Didn’t
have
to
be
just
when
the
theme
come
on…
although
if
that
come
on…
guaranteed
we’d
be
singing
it,
but
we
just
carried
on
singing
it
over
all
the
other
tunes
it
just
fit
over
everything.
And it
sounded
brilliant.
I remember
that
as a
brilliant
moment.
The
regular
thing
that
happened
in
Blackburn.
Downsides
at
Blackburn.
Yeah.
Yeah,
obviously
the
riots.
They
were…
they
were
a
bit
s***
appreciate
people
got
upset
that
the
police
were
trying
to
stop
the
party,
but
that…
they
weren’t
they
weren’t
much
fun.
Blackburn
partly
inspired
by
Blackburn
got…
got
into
making
music
and
after
being
in
the
music
industry
joined
the
video
game
industry
and
worked
in
that till
last
year.
Was in
it
for
23
years?
24
years.
I
was
audio
manager
for
Warner
Brothers
until
last
year
then…
left
that
to
move
to
London
where
I’ve
carried on
making
music
and
got
into
teaching
music
technology
at
the
Brit
School.
If
someone
was
researching
Blackburn
Raves
100
years
time.
Advice
i’d
give
them.
They
were
the
most
incredible
events
you
could
ever
imagine…
you
knew
that
you’re
in
the
middle
of
something
that
was
different…
something
massive…
something
was
bubbling.
Something
was
changing.
You
….
….
literally…
felt
like
the
world
was
changing
and
it…
did.
You
know,
we
didn’t
really
appreciate
the
extent
of
it.
Yeah.
It
was
rebellious
and
brilliant
but
exciting
new.
Really
really
exciting
something
special
happened
then
and
it’s
kind
of
had
a
massive
effect
on
the
world
and I can
still
feel
it
now
and
people
are
still
talking
about
it
now
and
you
know
things
were
never
quite
the
same
again.

Joe Getting Involved Part 1

Hi,
my
name
is
Joe
and
I
put
the
sound
system
in
a
lot
of
the
acid
house
raves
in
Blackburn
in
89
and
90
I
got
involved
because
I
was
working
at a
place
called
Audio
Workshop
at
the
time,
which
used
to
build
amplifiers
and
build
speakers
and
they
used
to
do
clubs
installations.
And
basically
I
used
to,
I
used
to
rent
out
their
big
PA
because
they
didn’t
really
want
to
take
it
out,
the
guys,
the
guys
there
and
I
used
to
rent
it
and put
it in
clubs
and
do,
do
live
gigs
with
bands
usually.
I
met
Joules
at Audio
Workshop,
who
was
the
same
age
as
me.
He
lived
down
in
London
at the
time.
And
he’d
built
up
a
really
big
PA
and
he’d
changed
jobs
in
London
and
he’d
brought
his
PA
up
to
a
house
he
had
on
Hickory
Street
in
Blackburn.
And
so
I
started
hiring
this
PA
out
for
him
as
well
because
the
guys
in,
the
guys
in
Audio
Workshop
weren’t
that
keen
on
renting
theirs
out
without
going
out
with
it
kind
of
thing.
So
anyway,
some
guy
started
renting
a
PA
from
the
shop,
without
a
mixing
desk,
just
the
speakers
and
amplifiers,
for
a
place
called
Crackers
in
Blackburn
Town
centre.
And
I
used
to
go
down
there
and
set
it
up
for
em.
And
it was
acid
house
music
and
it
was,
it
was
amazing.
It
was an
amazing
place.
I’ve
never
seen
anything
like
it.
They
just
wanted
it
as
loud
as
possible
really
and
I
think
the
PA
took
about
quarter
of
the
room
up
in
Crackers.
It
was
so
loud
in
there,
it was
shaking the
building
apart.
And
I
thought
it
was
amazing.
I’d
never
really
seen
anything
like
it.
I
was
really
into
punk
music,
but
I
also
got
really
into
hip-hop
and
electro
as
well,
and
I’d
been
to,
I’d
been
to
study
at
School
of
Sound
Recording in
Manchester
the
year
before
and
I’d
learned
a
lot
about
recording
and
I
was
getting
really
into
it,
and
I
was
going
back
to
do
me
A
Levels
at
Blackburn
College,
but
I
was
already
looking
for
other
possibilities.
We
ended
up
going
to
Live
the
Dream
after
packing
up
Crackers
one
night
and
people
saying
oh
you
should
come
to
this.
There’s
this
really
big
event
on
and it’s
in
Blackburn.
I
saw
the
tickets
advertised
but
I
presumed
it
was
going
to
be
out
of
town.
So
we’ve
got
a
lift
up
to
this
Live
the
Dream
which
was
2
enormous
tents
with
no
3
tents, with
enormous
PA’s
in.
They
had
2
house
tents
and
they
had
this
alternative
music
tent
which
was
more
my
scene
at
the
time.
But
I
saw
this
event
and it
was
just
phenomenal.
I’ve
never
seen
anything
like
it
in
Blackburn.
Well
from
then
on
I
really
wanted
to
get
involved
because
they
were
doing
these
parties
every
week
not
as
big
as
Live
the
Dream
but
they
were
doing
them
locally.
So
I
think
it
was
2
weeks
after,
we’re
renting
the
Audio
Workshop
PA
down
to
Crackers
and
we
had
Joules’s
PA.
We
had
no
gigs
on
that
weekend,
so
I
got
in
touch
with,
through
a
friend,
to
somebody
who
was
doing
the
sound
at
these
parties,
who
I’d
heard
was
doing
the
sound
at
these
parties
and they
didn’t
have
a
PA
that
night
and
they
rung
me,
it was
probably,
was
probably
about
10
o’clock
at
night
and
they
rung
me
up.
I
was
living
at
me
Mums
down
at
Lammack,
and
we
had,
we
had
the
PA
stored
down
there
at
Lammack,
on
Lammack
Road
in
the
garage.
And
they
said
can
you
provide
a
PA
for
the
party
tonight?
This is
like
a
couple
of
hours
before
it
was
meant
to
be
starting
and
I
said
oh,
yeah,
definitely.
So,
they sent
a van
round
because
we
didn’t
drive
at
the
time.
And
it
didn’t
fit
in
the
van.
It
didn’t
even
fit
with
two
trips
in
the
van.
There
was
still,
we
had
these
huge
bass
bins.
We
had
six
of
them
called
Thunderbolts.
Made
by
a
company
called
Vitavox.
And
they
managed
to
take
most
of
it
in
two
trips.
And
I
remember
there
was
a,
one
bass
bin
left.
Which
my
Dad
unbeknown
to
him,
gave
us
a
lift
in
his
Land
Rover
to
Glenfield
Park
near
Whitebirk
He
gave us
a
lift
with
the
last
bass
bin
and
he
dropped
it
off
there,
like
it’s
probably
about
1
in
the
morning
in
the
pitch-black
and,
he
knew,
he
knew
what we
were up to.
But
he
didn’t
seem
to
mind.
And
then
he
drove
home
and,
he
drove
home
to
Lammack
Road
and
sat
down
and had
dinner
with
Jack
straw.

leave
it
there
for
the
night
and try
and
get
it out
at
the
end
of
the
night,
you
know.
No,
the
Sett
End
was
an
amazing
place.
It
was
like
a
mini
party
before
the
party
started.
It
was
always
rammed
with,
with
as
many
people
as
they
could
fit
in
the
doors.
And
once
we’d
got,
well
from
when
I
saw
it,
from
when
we
put
Joules’s

was
just

it

amazing.

the
night
and try
and
get
it out
at
the
end
of
the
night,
you
know.
No,
the
Sett
End
was
an
amazing
place.
It
was
like
a
mini
party
before
the
party
started.
It
was
always
rammed
with,
with
as
many
people
as
they
could
fit
in
the
doors.
And
once
we’d
got,
well
from
when
I
saw
it,
from
when
we
put
Joules’s
PA
in
there
was
just
yeah,
it
was
amazing.
What
a
place.

What
good
times
do
I
remember
of
of
the
parties?
Well,
every
single
one
of
them
was,
was
a
challenge
and
just
really
exciting.
It
was
so
exciting
for
us
because
there
was
this
challenge
of
getting
this
party
off
the
ground
and
it
was
such
a
relief
and
a
fantastic
feeling
when
they,
when
they
happened
of
course.
And
I
think
the
longer
we
went
on
with
it,
that
you
know,
every
week
we
got
away
with
it,
the,
the
thrill
was
kind
of,
kind
of
bigger
each
time
because
we
never
imagined
we’d
get
away
with
it
for
so
long
thinking
back
now.
There
was
a
great
feeling
which
everyone
had,
which
was
the
party
starting,
you
know
and
huge
cheer
would
go
up.
And
then
you’d
spend
the
next
hour
just
checking,
well
we’d
look
after
equipment
after
after
that
check,
checking
around
who
was
there
and
obviously
it
was
the
same
people
every
week
but
a
few
more
extras
each
time.
It
was
great
catching
up
with
your
mates
seeing
where
they
were,
finding
out
where
they
were
hanging
out
in
the
warehouse
and
it
was
just
this
unbelievable
feeling
of
togetherness
that
everyone
had
there,
it was
fantastic
and
partly
because
it
was
our
thing
wasn’t
it.
I’m
sure
partly,
partly
because
it
was
illegal
as
well
which
gave
you
that
other,
other
bit
of
excitement,
but,
but
it
really
felt
like
the
world
was
changing,
you
know,
it
was
a,
it
was
a
fantastic
new
thing
which
we
were
apart
of,
you
know.
