biggest bunch of little men i ever seen in my life - dont think i ever want to set foot in that place as long as i live.
remember what thay did with gerry last year? - they work for the police not the club. they prey on the clubbers instead of protecting them. little little men - forever shame is them
they grabed me mate shawn whist he was changin into his costume in the bogs and robbed his smoke.
little snitchy traffic wardens -

they grabed me mate shawn whist he was changin into his costume in the bogs and robbed his smoke. ....bursting in on him in a cubical. not catching him doing whtever they thought he was doing.....so dragging him off to a private room, keeping him there for bout 15/20mins while they thoroughly search and intimidate him. eventually finding his smoke. trying to drag me in there for poking my nose in asking what they were doing, and telling them tht this is the guy thats been working his ar*e off to make the venue look lush! when they finally let him go, they told him to tell me to watch my back cos they'll av me next. ....scum.

i went on friday night & the security basically stripped my bag apart totally emptied it out even checking inside my purse and camera case - my bag has 15 pockets ha ha that kept them busy..... I did find the security a bit on top and unfortunately it has put me off going back to Hendre in a hurry. Hope all is ok for DD. Saz x

Hey Folks. Glad most of you managed to have a cwl time, despite the security issues! The weekend was a success, and draws to a close the FN crew's halloween run. Thanks to all the contributors. It was wonderful to showcase some psy-trance this year, and the crowd loved it- even the techno-heads...! On the subject of the security team... It has been the case for several years that the men in black at Hendre take their jobs very seriously indeed. I do concur with your comments, and personally find the security levels to be way over the top, but they are booked by the venue to safeguard their license, and all future events at Hendre depend on their presence... sadly! Of course, I am saddened by the fact that these issues detracted from the intended vibe of the halloween event, and they certainly contribute to the FN team's decision to call it a day...! I am deeply sorry for the upset that the security team has inflicted on my tribal brothers and sisters, and wish that Stevie and I, as promoters, had more control over this aspect of the party, but it is and always has been, out of our hands. I guess we need to bear in mind that Hendre hosts a wide variety of events throughout the year, and some of the crowds they attract are somewhat less..... wholesome/friendly/peaceful than our "community". Perhaps the difficulty of this challenge is reflected in their over-zealous approach. However, I remain disturbed and dismayed by their methods. There are definitely lessons to be learned from all this stuff. If current government policy continues to strive to stifle our civil liberties and freedom of expression, we can probably expect other such venues to ramp up their security in a similar way. Thankfully, as can be seen on our forum, there are true heroes to be found breaking new ground in party organisation, and these young pioneers (you know who you are ) give me hope that we can continue to gather in unity, and adapt our methods to counter any future threats! I'd also like to echo Saz's hope that all is ok for DD...! Meanwhile, please take care of yourselves, and each other! I hope to see you all again very soon... I love you all! L&P, -G!

Aye Gary, gld you've not taken the comments about security as a detriment to Fright Night itself - there arent many venues at all in North Wales so your kind of stuck with what you are given I guess - sucha a shame, its a great venue! Good luck for the future, what ever you get up too x x

no worries dude, we all know there wasnt much u could of done given the circumstances....we shouldnt let it put us off, only make us look even harder for the perfect locations. ...i think all psy oranisations can cross that place off the possible future venues list. c yer soon!
