We were talking about till late with Karen and Pete, who were very glad they came last nite. Congrats to all the DJs, Chic's set was well worth the wait (being his first appearance at The Greatstone,not the last i suspect).Of course Chris kicked the proceedings off with a sublime set of tunes which deserve more exposure, which i'm sure they'll get and Brett followed with more of the same,the rest of the night was usual high quality. Coloured badges??? Didn't get one!! :diablo: Link to comment
