Ahh that's very disappointing to hear. The beauty of those mixes was the anarchy of not knowing what's gonna happen next, but knowing it's gonna be a party that anyone can get into. Taking away the spontaneous side is a killer, I would've expected them to do have done something really subvertive with it (while staying true enough to keep the anniversary spirit). Just sounds like a cash grab.
I'd be at both sets in all likelihood anyway but I'll have to temper my expectations on 2manydjs
Saw them last week in Notts. Booked that purely based on thier 2017 appearance , only time I had seen them before. They are a very decent approximation, and a good show all round. But where would they play now you reckon?
One photo at the start, as a memento of where I was stood, then that's it for me.
If people wanna stand there videoing it then fine... but I can't understand it. They aren't really part of the atmosphere then, they are missing out 🤷♂️
Barely spent anything on booze, drank cans/cocktail pouches from the coolbox basically all weekend. Lack of decent beer being the main driver there... Guinness being the exception.
Ate out twice a day, the prices were generally as expected I guess but quality varied massively.
