    If it wasn't for Promise I wouldn't have met a lot of people I'm glad to have done.

    Maybe Mark will stick a classics night in next spring or something? ;)

    Christ.

    Very much end of an era - as has been said - Promise has been a lot to me over the years, so many good people, so many good nights.

    For a while it has felt like we have 'clung' onto it, and it looks like that is going to be the case.

    regardless of how it's ending, it has provided me with so much to remember and for that i thank everyone involved. :clap:

    I am gutted that i dont think i'll be able to come to the last one, have plans elsewhere and they aint the kind i can throw away.

    farewell. :(

    well people are obviously gona be forced to look for other nights to attend?? even though it's just 1 night a month so where people gona be heading?? techno has took over my loving for trance so il be continuing to support hoked bar sesions down at the other rooms, henrik b being on the next line up so should be fooking class, also will be heading down for shindig now and then
    so it's not all bad, think the arena event will defos be last one like,
    as after the last one was meant to be:( funny ive been to every arena event from the first one on nye 1999 and every time i return it bring's back some memories:D

    News like this is never good and i can definately say ive met some great people from Promise and other associated nights over the years.

    .... Sadly i think this is indicative of the whole clubbing scene in general and i dont think Promise will be the last club night to suffer the same fate. In recent times i think people have gotten way too greedy and its places like foundation who just cant compete with the massive names and ever increasing demands of clubbers to provide them with a laundry list of A list DJ´s before they even leave the house.

    Having said that .... this leaves a good 1000 or more people in newcastle with no trance club in their own backyard to go to anymore.....

    .... So maybe someone with a few grand and a 500 to 700 person venue might do well to book some of the old school trance and prog dj´s and give things another go eh :D

    swapping for an electro night is a bad idea, if thats what is happening.

    I agree with brid, and i think its time for clubbing to go back to basics, but its a shame because i dont think their's enough true music fans in the northeast, nights live twisted, vuzz etc trancewise have booked some cracking djs but havn't had the attendances to match, people are more bothered about the venue and how many lazers it has than the music itself.

    I think this definately leaves a big hole in the trance scene in the northeast, you never know tho, seeing some of the djs smaller nights have managed to book it would be nice to see one of them stick their necks out, or maybe get together and try for bigger things, i dont think there will be a better oportunity than this :up:
