brisbane dance parties archive

I'm restructuring the site slightly to make it easier to link the information together more seamlessly and to present it better too. some links might change as I move things around.

also many people have given permission for their photos & flyers to be included on the site - hopefully the restructure will make this easier also, so then I can start uploading them (to save changing more stories later)

thanks!

update 15/02/2009 : sorry, there's currently a problem with the flyers (after a site upgrade) - hopefully this will be working again soon

there's been a lot of spam on the site so posting, comments & forums require people to login now.

deleting spam - so much fun :(

well, I ended up dropping out of my course, and became rather busy at work so as you can see this site was left to the wayside for a while.

I started collecting bios/profiles for artists on aliak.com again this week to try archive some info on the artists. Dave / DRi mentioned there was a thread on ITM from Dennis Remmer of Transcom who's working on a dvd project on the history of Brisbane's music community. see the Needed - Veterans of the Brisbane scene thread

So this triggered me into posting again here. I'll upload some of the profiles from aliak.com to here also as an extra reference. and try posting more memories. it really is bad how much I've forgotten. though some things are really clear - but just a few seconds of it all. I can remember the feelings the most.

I think I've gone overboard on the categories for the articles on the site, but it might make for easier searching and sorting of articles & links. I've enabled multiple categories so articles can be sorted into more than one category. the music genres are loosely based on the Wikipedia's list of electronic music genres as at 05/02/2005.

I've trimmed the list down as there were too many choices. the search function is pretty good in drupal so will try that initially
