I have the front page of the evening herald from that night, I'll scan it for you...mad night indeed....we thought it was the end of the club, mind you the owner (robbie wooton would you believe, now owns spirit) said, "dont worry about it, it's probably the first and last time you'll ever get on the front page of the herald"

I had one in me already and two in my pocket when they arrived in...necked the other two straight away. A few mates were taken away that night with a lot on them. I remember everyone outside then boppin away thinking we might get back in. Althought I think we had to wait till everyone was searched before we could get our jackets. Some of the main dealers (remain nameless) were near me when the guards came in. A young guard came over to them and on his own led them out a fire exit and closed the door after them...looked like they were being let go

lot of dodgy stuff went on that night, they took the decks apart looking for drugs, i'd just popped and was rushing like mad, trying to answer questions-i remember some bloke jumped out of the van in cuffs cheered on by the crowd, only to be caught. the barmen threw a load of splif into the mop bucket so at least we had a spliff after they all split:v:
poor sarah rock had a the book thrown at her (being dickie's daughter) we were lucky to get the license back-we never realised some of the big gangs used to use the place for business before we did the club there, they must have thought it was xmas when we opened a rave club there....

The gas thing was they were never discrete about their dealing. All the heads hanging round openly selling pills, and they really were the main heads at the time - although they did use younger lads a lot to actually sell. Even the chill out room was another mad part. It was great to go down there for a cup of tea and a spliff to scag out for a bit before heading back up to hop around the place. Ah the memories, loved the place.

Here's a load of old (1996) Metroland flyers from Waterford

First one is particulary funny. Lots of old Irish names knocking around on them as well as a few big foreign names
