The Ibiza Thread

Is it to early to mention Manumission.

(Controversial alert)
Maybe biased as I had a mate who DJ’d & worked for them
They put a bit of oomph back into Ibiza which was needed but ended up a monster
If you forgive all the lads in Ben Sherman waiting for the Sex Show. 93 was a bit lacking & basically Black N White (so Alex P & Brandon) , no guests & the old guard Pippi / Caeser DM were ‘OK’ ( didnt catch Alfredo or even hear of him)
I know how it ends but spark had gone & at least it created ‘something’

Have one of mine: €

:wink:

Heard Rocky play at Black & White at Ku and it was a fab night. Nothing to add, this just reminded me :smiley:

95 & 96 were good for Manumission but there was no love lost between Andy /Dawn and Mike /Claire after that…

Last few years at Mercury Rising we’ve done about an hour on the floor in total and the rest of the night blethering absolute nonsense in the garden so not sure we’ve noticed much difference between Harvey and any other nights in Pikes tbh

Looks like no Europe gigs this year for Harvey.

Gonna be in and around Valencia for a few weeks, flying out next Thursday. Not interested in mega clubs, but anyone know of anything going on that might be popping over for? Ruf Dug is playing Pikes on the 16th.

Feels to me like there are a lot more options now for the adults. I would keep an eye on these:

OpenLab Fridays at NUI
Malanga always decent music
Paradise Lost
The Standard
Chidas Cantina
Akasha
Ibiza Vinyl Club at Esbirra
Also Lola’s sometimes

Going with 2 mates 23-26 0ct… Return flights from Dublin €70🙌 and spoilt for choice with hotels most decent ones around €100 a night for triple room…

I said this last year and didn’t end up going, but off-season is a real attraction these days

Thai food pop at Casa Lhasa in San Lorenzo on Saturday evening. Sadeedo on music duties. He’s good.
Another pop up at WOM in Santa Eulalia on Thursday 13th July - Ruf Dug alongside Sadeedo and some nice sandwiches

A 1000 peseta fine for ‘immodest’ sunbathing in 1973!

If I wasn’t in Berlin this weekend I’d be all over this.

Proper line up.

Great line up… Have you heard are the nights doing well…? Nightmare starting a new party over there…

I know nothing about it. Except I’d give it a go if I could!

Ruf Dug and Willie Graff a few Sundays ago. Just busy enough, not packed in like sardines and ace music all night

Anyone out 7-13 Oct? Staying at 3 places over the week. First night in old town. Want to check out Fred & Bekka’s new record shop by paradise lost

Yes, I’m there from the 7th - 11th. Going to the Jezebel party at Pikes.

They’ve opened a record shop?! Given up the transport business then.

Not sure. Need to give em a shout. Been a long time!

Wondering how David Holmes got on last night. I heard they’ve struggled for numbers. Fridays in peak summer are a tough sell
