JANUARY is usually a quiet time in clubland, as most of us are tightening our belts, so scout around for the January sales in the North West clubs.

Music wise, the tune everyone is going on about at the moment is Christina Aguilera and Missy Elliott in a drum and bass sound clash, seek out!

WHEN resident Dave Inns got chance to start a new Thursday, he pulled out all the stops and created a massive midweek session. DJs on rotation include my good self and Flip & Fill.
