Review By Angel & Pete

 

Well we wanted our warehouse Party to be special and – although not without its problems – overall we reckon it was!  We tried out the Planet Angel concept some 9 years ago in a car park in some arches under London Bridge (now called the SeOne club!). It really had that warehouse feel and the event was basically lots of different groups of people collaborating to put on a huge event called the Warp - which was conceived by Fraser Clark. It was a great time.

So for us this warehouse Party was real blast from the past, not only were we back in a car park, we were working with other like-minded organisations again which was a real treat!  Both Wonderland and the 491 Gallery provided a fantastic contribution to the Party, both adding a creative input that gelled perfectly with Planet Angel’s.  So big thanks to both organisations and particularly well done to the 491 for running the cafe all night under some quite difficult circumstances at points!

 

And the music;  how well did that work out! Seeing the floor packed from the start of the old skool set has us thinking we’d better do that again!  So too for all of the sets by the DJs, the performances all round were superb and had people dancing till the lights went on!  We’d particularly like to thanks Alan Seventh Heaven and Specimen A for outstanding live performances, you really rocked guys thanks!

 

This Party was a real challenge logistically for many reasons, it’s a huge task to turn a warehouse into a Party space that we consider good enough call Planet Angel and not everything went smoothly  - we’d certainly improve a few things if we did that again !  But overall it looks like people had a great time, and most importantly, were safe... Thanks to everyone who came and made this Party such a great event, and many thanks for Angel’s cards, cakes and presents!  What a birthday Party!

Well there we go, the next party is not until July but remember Planet Angel *Chilled* is on Sunday 15th June, it’s a great way to chill out on a summers’ Sunday afternoon with like minded people, maybe see you there... take care for now, love Pete and Angel.
