review

Well, what can I say but congratulations to the team at Charles Street and Envy! What a fantastic night! A great DJ line-up (including the superb Mark Bambach), music to suit everyone and superb venue decoration.

New Year's Eve really showed the full potential of the venue: The partying was spread over two levels and Charles Street remained open all night. Let's just hope they learn from this success and open the venue up like this more often... don't make us wait until this time next year!

If there's a city that knows how to party it's Brighton. Non-stop from 8pm to 4am, and packed with the most beautiful boys and gals. A wild night was had by all.

Starting at Brighton Rocks, preparations were in place for a very busy New Years Eve. The DJ mysteriously had a lemur growing out of his head. Sadly, I was unable to clone myself into four (who said 'thank heavens'?).

So, first on our list and the place to see New Year in was Storm, and at £5 entry (no rip-offs here) we find the place packed and ready to party.

After the poppers popping, the midnight snogs, a copious amount of beer, we still wanted more...

The connection, that is, between Charles Street and Envy. What a fantastic night! A great DJ line-up (including the superb Mark Bambach), music to suit everyone and superb venue decoration. New Year's Eve really showed the full potential of the venue.

A disk appeared on my doormat this morning. No name. Just had "NYE 03/04" scrawled on it. I think it might be from Simon, but I don't know. I've put it together with Wilma's photos from the same event for your delectation.

Glyn and Neil ventured into London to see in 2004 at Action and then Beyond in Vauxhall (along with much of Brighton it seems?). 15 hours of continuous clubbing later - and they were still ready for more!

In fact, it works so badly that these few pathetic snaps are all I got. But I *know* you want to see them... ;o)
