Remember the second floor in The Asylum.
It was a dark rectangular room with a haze of smoke, there were lamps along the walls and I would doubt that even half them had bulbs in them. It was always packed with people sitting on the ground around the pillars in the middle of the floor.
There were couch seats along both sides of the room and there was stairs at either end both leading up and down. Just sit down for a minute and a complete stranger would hand you a joint which could have literally anything in it and waffle the ears off ya

I do indeed remember it chief......upon entering the ASYLUM i never went directly ahead into the second floor which you could do (it was actually ground level with main dancfloor in basement)....i always went downsatirs first........



Then across the dancfloor through the arches at the back......



Then through the door to the left of the DJ Box........



Into either backstairs or corridor to put yer jacket in.......



Up the stairs then through the mass of bodys sitting on em.....




Then into the second floor where the madness was (safe sanctuary for the insane).....



Then onto the third floor to check out whats happening up there (sometimes tunes sometimes not:mad:).........




Final stop the back arched windows with stairs to left that brought you back down to second floor & street level.............




Or like Seanyboy hanging out the window lookin for yokes:D (sorry had to post this pic again)........

As far as i know part of the building was used as a dance academy there for a while.Bit ironic that seen as all we wanted to do in it was dance but the law would'nt allow us . :pac::pac::pac::pac::pac:
Not too if it's still used for that tho.

tis indeed ace, 'the american school of dance' or 'american dance academy', somethin 2 that effect anyway.
do ya reckon the government and garda would allow it 2 reopen if some1 tried 2 open it back up?

theres no way it would ever be the same again if it did reopen anyway, closin time of 2.30am, sh1te yokes and what not, and a totally different outlook by people on the dance scene in general not 2 mention the music thats out nowadays.

unless laws change over here on closin times and all night clubs are aloud 2 do business again there would be absolutely no point reopenin the asylum, would just be an insult 2 the place me thinkz.

es-cee

on the subject of reopenin clubs, any1 know what the temple is now? i heard a mate of mine say it was some sort of yuppie bar, but i haven't been up that way in years, probably since it closed its doors in early 2004.
would hate 2 think of a load of snobs takin over the place i once lived in basically, just wouldn't suit the place at all, not after what went on there 4 so long.

Your spot on there but even if the law cahnged it will never be what it was......it was an experience that was happening at the time & the buzz created was unique to that time......same as in SIDES, TEMPLE or wherever you got your kicks....sure we may get some great one off sessions but the week in week out buzz of Friday & Saturday night till 8:00am will never be the same again.........summer of 1994 was the pinacle of the ASYLUM that has stayed with people for so long.

Besides all that we all seen as soon as the garda got a wiff of the ASYLUM even opening for one night as a private party it was closed down before it got past 1:00 am............................

Garda outside stopping folks getting in and while that was happening outside.........

Mick & Caf getting it going

Same sh.it happened to the waterfront......offices.......



This Rave is very under rated in my opinion......defo was one of the best Raves open 1995 with soundest bouncers you would get anywhere

Is mise le key

Two more pics from the waterfront i picked up on here i think ages back......





It would be great if someone up loaded a video of the place:D:D:D;)

dreamers75

there's 1 of francois alrite.

A good spot alright, I think they changed the bouncers after the garda gate crashed one friday night and made us all sit on the floor, wasn't as good after that. I've a video somewhere, recorded off the tele about 10 years ago with francois interviewed and it shows clips of the u.f.o in full flight:D, but I've no idea how to convert or upload:(.

Hi guys.
Can someone ID and share this track complete and not within some set . It´s a great tune taken from the Mark Spoon set :
Mark Spoon Live Hessentag 1994 Schwalmstadt . According to the official playlist the trackname should be Antic - Santana from this EP
http://www.discogs.com/Antic-EP/master/142209
but after i found the track on youtube it´s not the same track .
The strange thing is i found the other 2 tunes from this EP too and its neither one of them
Any help ?
