Hi people,

Big hello from me. Been into psy for a few years, and DJin it for about 3.
Attend ToF quite regularly and have been a few antiworld bashes. Only just heard about this site, so I thought I'd sign up and introduce myself.

Peace. Out.

You know, you know who I am really! Think about it. I'm from Oxford, into my psy, DJ (or attempt to DJ). I even went to Boom with you. :Wink3:

wow!
there are a few peeps from the Oxford area.

I'm gonna have to start going to Baraka a bit more. Rude not to really, as its so close.
To be honest Oxford clubs have always put me off due to the crap opening times. I take it Baraka is the only local psy night?
 
Theres one called Planet Plank that runs occasionally as well.

The last one was a couple of weeks ago. Its a little less full-on than Baraka but still a lovely vibe. :smoke:

I actually live in Abingdon (8 miles south of Oxford), but never go out there!

Baraka goes on until 3am, which is an hour later than many nights in Oxford

Yeh, I think it used to finish earlier? Maybe the council is getting softer. Be ideal if it was 6am though. Wonder why they dont grant later licenses?

abingdon must be packed full of psy fans in that case then, cause I met someone fitting that bill only last night in the cellar - wasn't you by chance was it ClosetHippy?

Could be worse. I used to live on pembroke street, next to bar med. a full year of hearing drunk people chanting 'heyyyyy baaaaby' every single night nearly drove me to insanity... :?
 
Wicked, just what we need in Oxford, another bloody hippy :Wink3: Welcome to you wardrobe dweller. Do come to Baraka if you can its full of lovely people and havin' it music. :clubjump:

Planet Plank is on tonight(11th) I think.

Is it? I've heard nothing about this, they need to improve their publicity if it is on tonight, I've not see a single poster or flyer. A web search for "Planet Plank" doesn't bring up any useful information either...

I think they probably rely mostly on word-of-(forgetful hippies)-mouth.

Its in the Globe on Cowley Road downstairs.

I see... I'm amazed they bring in enough money to keep going!

Thanks, though its a bit too short notice for me to go this time, as I've tentatively made some other plans. Maybe next time (if I can find out when its on!)...
