A new Facebook group popped up this week reminiscing over the club at the centre of the mash up / bootleg / bastard pop craze of the early 2000’s. This short piece by a Swiss film crew was posted that I make a brief cameo in. The King Of The Boots/Bastard nights at the Asylum are some of my fondest clubbing memories (as a punter and a DJ), genuinely insane, hilarious as well, as each new mash was greeted with a roar of approval. There was a real shock of the new in some ways, you could hear the scene unfolding month after month, incredibly exciting as well as being some of the silliest, dance-on-the-table-shit-faced nights out.

  1. The Bastard Christmas gig we went to one year was classic, in the crowd were a couple of celebrity lookalikes (non-intentional)…we spotted a taller Rachel Stevens dancing with a tubby Fred Durst – it only added to the general confusion of the music and chaos in a working mens club – you had to walk through the old bar (with old folk) to get into the main hall!
