This was a serious Bash to celebrate our first gathering of the New Year!!

Firstly we served a free glass of hot, mulled wine to everyone as they walked in, and took it turns to serve this delicious recipe (complete with fresh bits of apple and mint no less!). We received a fine display of reactions to this offering, ranging from mild concern as to what was in the cup to absolute delirium!! All of us who took turns to serve drank more than we gave away and felt pretty happy for a good few hours, so this was a pretty good start to what became a mental nite!!

The Chill Bar was more chilled than ever before with a larger carpeted area and low tables, which resulted in a mass of bodies all talking and hugging each other, surrounded by numerous Lego creations and in the front room a broad range of outrageous sweat inducing, bouncy tunes and relocated Big Jenga and Connect 4 worked perfectly!

 In the main room the music and dancing and smiling was almost too much to bear, and at 3am Liquid Crystal performed an awesome show using crystal balls and immense talent which had the whole room in awe...

There is of course so much more to tell, but let us end by saying a huge thank you to all the people who spent time creating amazing costumes... too many to mention individually, but you all looked incredible!
 

Here's a selection of your comments... more are in the Guestbook!

"Just thought I'd drop you all an email to say thanks for the outstanding sets played in the main room on Friday night. I'd been going to whirl-y-gig for a while, before I discovered PA,  as I loved the vibe and the people but always thought the music a little too varied -- uplifting in places, but then snatched away at the vital moment. I'd previously spent a number of years going to places such as Escape from Samsara, Pendragon, Tribal Kaos, Astral Phoenix et al as the music blew the place apart, but the vibe/people were not as consistently friendly as Whirly.

So, enter Planet Angel -- perfection -- the vibe, friendliness and people that I'd grown to love at Whirly, coupled with the consistently uplifting music of previous clubs [although slightly less hard to complement the PA vibe]. Add a Friday night to leave the whole weekend to recover, and a 6am finish and I was in heaven.

Thanks again for a serious of outstanding sets -- keep up the good work guys ;-))

Thanks for listening, and I look fwd to more great PA nights to come."

"Dear Planet Angel, Just wanted to drop you a line about the last party. It was our first time at Planet Angel and what a way to start the New Year!

Planet Angel has got to be in the top 10 greatest parties we have ever been to. We haven't stopped buzzing yet. Can't wait for the chillout on 27th. See you there!"
