it did.

basically what appears to have happened (after finding some info on a blog posted by a copper which gave away a few clues (didn’t think they were still allowed to blog about ongoing incidents!) was this…

1. cops arrive in Landrover to try and close down rave
2. cops got pelted/abused by crowd and involved in scuffles – and lost the keys to their vehicle on the ground in the scuffle
3. they try to call for backup on their airwave radios (the ones that look like a big old mobile phone) but the digital network has crashed because there are so many coppers in one place trying all to use their radios at once (like how mobiles go all dodgy at raves and festivals)
4. they run back to their landrover to try and call for backup on their VHF “main set” (the old analogue radio) which is inside the landrover. (This is the device with the big telephone handset that you see cops in old TV shows like “Heartbeat” talking into! ). Its often now a part digital system but can still use the old analogue networks if need be.
5. As the plods have lost their keys, they smash the windows of their own vehicle so they can get inside and get at the radio and call for assistance. They must have been somewhat frightened and panicked to do this!
6. Having done so (presumably when the backup arrives) they then make a further assault on the rave.
7. Whilst they are occupied in other skirmishes, someone goes and lobs in a firework or other incendiary device in through the insecure windows of the Police vehicle..

and the situation escalates further…..

That sounds vaguely accurate, though I didn’t see the whole thing. What they miss out is that the OB Landrover was driving towards music equipment with the intent of destroying it (which they did when they finally got close enough). The missiles were a direct result of them using heavy-handed tactics and basically inciting a riot through their aggressive behaviour.

And the fact that one policeman lost a finger cannot justify such a ridiculous post-event investigation. What about the much more serious injuries picked up by ravers that seem to be getting ignored by the IPCC?!

I seem to have missed all this.

What’s going on? :wtf_beard

Edit: Just read the other thread – You lot are soo gullible.

Bulls on Parade.

Love to see any other guitarist making those effects without a wow-wow pedal. :toxic:

I thought that a pound per person was fair, especially considering most indoor parties this year have been charging at least a couple of quid for parties that have been nothing compared to this weekend.

As for hardstyle, I don’t think I heard much at all; lots of hard trance though. Quite a bit of variation of music at the party overall in my opinion.

Don’t think she has started using this site; she only recently started gracing us with her presence on SJ again.
Email her or something.

the local peterborough newspapers put the figure at 4000 but i dont think they would know really unless they kept a count of cars into site pretty unlikely

the original figure of 2-600 was most likely taken at the end of the party when the OB finally walked onto the site.
I reckon there could easily have been 4000 people there considering quite how randomly spread out a lot of people were, tents and cars everywhere.

I remember being told some very strange stories last time I went there last year.
Lots of strange things people had apparently found. I remember someone telling me about the number 23 turning up a lot in the history of the site.
Sadly I can’t actually remember any of the details or find any of the info that was on the net about it.

Spooky though. :alien_abd :crazy_fre

I knew you all did it.

That was after the Norfolk rig packed down and you all ventured over to the other rig. We do no such thing :wave:

Wish I’d spent more time in front of the Norfolk rig but couldn’t drag myself away from U.S. link up – more of that please. raaa

Yeah it was sounding a lot better than before. They shouldn’t have set up where they did tho, I didn’t find them till Monday morning and I never saw Toytwn at all.
In fact I didn’t actually see you all weekend did I? Hope you had a goodun mate.
Then again that place was slightly disorientating, and I was far from sober. :alien_abd

Too much choice tho:alien_abd raaa :alcoholic :get_you: :omg:

Had it large Military Stylee. :toxic: raaa :ar15:

It was a fooking wicked weekend, and has to be one of the biggest parties so far this year. Shame about some utter pricks deciding to try and ruin it for everyone else, but at least noone was hurt and it didn’t stop the party.

Looks like the Summer’s finally begun.
