what annoyed me was the fact that 4 of my mates fukked of even before it got goin, there seemed to be a big group fromNH and not many more peeps. That was the least people of osa I haver ever seen at any osa night.
I could it here pickin holes in beer prices and things like that but that doesnt help anyone, but whats the point in people comin on here and sayin mint night when if we are gonna be serious it was'nt was it? Now its no fault on the dj's etc, ste was mint, so was butty and so was rick but timeless used to be amazing, rockin every month. I would never comtemplate missing timeless when it was mint. Thats 2 times i have been to at club ohm and even though I like the club its not right for timeless. Its too big for a start at the minute and thats what probably created a lack of atmosphere.
Now it would not be right me taking snidey digs at timeless as I know exactly how hard to it to organise a night, no fukker will even give us a club at the minute, every 1 I ring fukks us of as soon as you say old skool so I cant say out. But it not nice seeing what timeless once was too seeing what it has become. You look at the pictures from the music box, see the ones where there must have been 25 people from osa on there. Nights like the boxin day one when K klass were on, they were mint nights ones that provide great memories. That on Friday night was nothing in comparison.
The thing you have to look at it is the fact that timeless is only 3 years old, on friday night, there was probably no more than lets say 5 maybe 10 people who were at the 1st one, thats a drastic loss of old skool ravers in such a short time
Timeless set the benchmark that everyone else in manchester tried to reach and achieve, it needs imo to go whole hog and get up there again and go for a more intimate club as the atmosphere would be well better and the outgoings less.
Sorry for goin on but that was not a mint night for timeless' standards and i'd be upset if Quey and Butty were happy to settle for nights like that. Somethings not right when the osa membership is goin up to over 6000 members and the people who are goin timelesss is goin down

Regarding OSA'ers not going out much.

I think it's a summer thing, people are off doing their own thing(s) on holidays etc.

Also with the Legends night this week, people sometimes 'save' themsevles for a one off type night like that, and therefore don't tend to go out to a 'regular' night as they may think 'ahh I can catch that another time'.

I was only there for an hour as had to get off to work early the next day.

The club I didn't think was that great tbh, too glitzy, and the bizarre maze to get to the DJ bit baffled me (I was pissed though) lol

If the bouncers are sound though, that's what Timeless needs isn't it? To make sure there's no trouble, I think the longevity of the night could work out ok there. I'd get Jules and co on the case and try and 'dirty' the place up a bit with decors/more banners etc, and those abattoir style plastic 'curtain' bits could be 'bloodied' up a bit to scare the shit out of people who are off their heads/pissed

Just kidding about that last bit, I'll have nightmares about that now lol.

Best bit for me was the inclusion of two fans either side of the decks, super cool so I wasn't sweating like a rapist whilst playing, bonus!

I can't remem what I played, so dunno if it was any good or not

coz u didnt have a mint night bud doesnt mean others didnt bud and so thats why usually theyl come on here and say theyve had a mint night lol

club ohm is still a new club for us, rome wasnt built in a day and the membership scheme weve had to put into place because of balloons ruining the last 4 venues weve had means that it will always be a slower mover than past excursions

there is lots of improvements that can be made there, the lighting does need the soda jules touch and i think that will make a big difference,

the boxing day night you talk about at the music box bud i agree with you, it was a great night, at the same time though it was rough as hell. 2 people got bottled and security wise we would never last there.

ohm is the first place we have had more than 4 events at from any venue we have ever had, its the first ever venue we feel safe at and are lucky to have the management behind us to help sort the problems out and make it better.

at the end of the day the night is growing. there was still 100 people there at 3am when the lights went on, its growing slowly like and we have got plans to boost that growingness but im happy with the scenario were in at the mo. were in a club which in the current climate as you say is a achievement in itself and you just have to work at the niggles and continue to make things better.

as for the osa lot, there all just getting on now and cant dig too many nights in a row, there was a beefy crew at the last event but you wasnt out. oh yeah coz your one of the lightweights

I am a lightweight mate. I want to see timeless do well you know that. Theres a difference between mint night and i enjoyed myself though. I could run a list of mint nights out at timeless as long as my arm, where it was a pleasure to have been there and I admit it would be difficult for anyone to attain them standards again.

Now I had a boogie,. no mither what so ever and some good tunes but it was'nt a mint night was it, surely you can agree with that.

i came on here and said i had a mint night becuase i did.... and maybe thats cos all of my friends stayed right to the end..... and i DID go to the first timeless at the music box, and then at the Zoo, and then at Denvers and the Phoenix etc so i know what the timeless nights are and what they are suposed to represent. Nothig wrong with OHM. Personally i would rather be in a nice clean club like that where the bouncers are sorted than in a dirty scruffy club like the phoenix where it is full of skanks. And who says it is only OSA people who can go to timeless??? As far as im concerned a good night equals good tunes (which there was) rom to dance (which there was) a good crowd of normal people (which there was) all my friends with me (an they were) and clean toilets (which there was) and friendly bouncers (which there was). I have full respect for butty putting on these nights and all the work it must involve and of course there are gunna be times when the nights ae a bit low on numbers but hey, thats life and correct e if im wrong but wasnt the month before the 3rd birthday with moggy???

You callin me a skank then banjo
As for the osa bit, I much prefer nights when theres not that many there.
It was the 3rd birthday last month and thats a great achievement.
But I thought it was a bit misleading with you just puttin mint night. Yes you enjoyed yourself with your mates and thats all that matters at the end of the day, not what sum idiot like me has to say

Timeless

I normally come to every month with ma missis and a few mt8s, what does make it a bit more difficult is its on a Friday night so if ur workin next day you cant get really fucked up! lol I love these nights was never lucky enough to go to them at the music box but been 2 the phoneix and must say i prefer OHM cos theres never any myther. Whens the next 1 planned so i can get out of work the next day?
