Sex Shop thread on the RIP DJ Edwin group
late on the evening of 21st March 2014, there was a thread about the Sex Shop nights held in Brisbane in the early 1990s — it must have been around 1992/3 when the Sex Shop was open. the club only ran for a few months — six months maximum. memories were shared about this club and others around the same time.

this is a poem posted by Trance_Wizard in August 2003. by this time the Brisbane Message Boards of SPRACI were not used as often by regular Brisbane dance party people - only a small group of semi-regular posters remained.

this is parts of the Brisbane SPRACI message boards thread from 2001 where board members listed their top songs/artists from 2001. I can't read the threaded versions of posts so this might be an incomplete list

Hey, anyone remember the morning of "ARGON ONE?"
A micro story: Winged Keys had to be 'eaten' - security warnings at the door, huge crowd for a WAREHOUSE RAVE, I think it was one of Brisbane's first. Talking 'head' at the enterence and full body check, spun people out...as that 'type' of security did not exist in 1992, got in everytihng 'melded'.........party on, lightless 'porta - loos' bad on Keys but also FUNNY, danced walked around....??????? ummmm.....went to friend's unit, had a glowing sand - witch, fell off chairs, took a taxi back o the morning of ARGON ONE again, past cemetery - ghosts rise out of graves.......and fake bodies hug taxi.........reached 'sanity' - only to hear 'mikes' being BANGED and CRUNCHED and screamed through..........danced some more..........and talked..........(at that time in 'RAVE HISTORY' persons felt 'it was like a SYDNEY RAVE.......had some easter eggs and chilled with SATAN........

I can't find any of my older spraci posts from the 90s - will need to check with Michael MD.
but here's links to some I've found. not all are memory of early dance / electronic community though. I haven't had time to sort through them yet.

another post from spraci - where all the discussion happened a few years back & people reminisced.
this one's a little controversial. so skip over the politics, though it does happen a bit in brisbane so I guess is reflective of the place in one respect
