Just got back from Ireland, good hols, went to Global Gathering in Cork on Sunday, fucking disgraceful turnout, loads of early 90's raver types wearing Altern8-esque boilersuits and dustmasks 
This was supposed to be a 16000 event but it looked like around 5000 to me, anyways, first caught Zabiela in the Global Arena (which was shoved right down the back of the site) playing to a couple of hundred people and he didn't fail to abuse my ears with his usual brand of inane scratching and abrasive noise 
Howells was good, Lawler was better, Sasha & Digweed finally came on at 10pm, still only about 3-400 in there by now, Digweed "kicked" off with some of his usual brand plod-prog but picked up towards the end of his first hour, then Sasha came on and turned out a decent hour, then Digweed came on for 30 mins, was ok, then Sasha came on for 30 mins and was fucking incredible, there were only about 200 people in there by now but Sasha really fucking banged it out, really lifted the night, and big respect to him for actually looking interested and clapping to the crowd and dancing around, must have been a bit of a let down for them but Sasha played it out well, last hour was back to back and i fucked off 15 mins before the end cause it was fucking freezing, good night though thanks to Sasha, wouldn't go there again though, The mrs took the camera so will post the pics soon.
