XXL

06/08/16: One of the nice features of XXL at Pulse, is that you somehow always seem to end up bumping into someone you know when you go there.

This weekend’s edition was no exception and we got to have a chat with several friends, some recent, some not seen for a long time. This is one of the things that makes the night pretty much unmissable. So much so, in fact, that many people that night had clearly come straight from Brighton Pride, extending the day’s fun as much as possible.

As the resident DJs were doing their fabulous stuff at the decks (David Robson and later Joe Egg in the smaller vault with cheesy pop and R&B), and inspired by the hedonistic mood, we decided to venture into the infamous dark room to see who was happening.

We are still bereft at the thought of that hairy bullstud not noticing us, let alone knowing we even existed, but it was clear that many there were noticing each other (and enjoying a different kind of bumping) despite the dim lighting. Better luck next time, perhaps, because we’ll be back, like everyone else.
