I remember being in Essence one night back ithink in 96 when some moron set off a C02 bomb off in the mens tolilets, I thought i was going to die. I breathed in but couldnt breath out.. So i kicked one of the emergency exit doors open to be confronted by a bouncer fortunatly i knew him or his boss Chris Bailey Not sure if you know him or not.. Any how about 30 seconds later people were rushing out of the club.. From what i could understand there was a gang in the club that night so a rival gang planted the bomb to get them out into the streets to fight them, All hell broke loose and the police arrived only to be forced to leave the area as there were to many people for them to control, they returned in full riot gear about 25 mins later, I went across the street with a friend of mine and the coffee shop on the corner let me inside. We went up to the roof and watched the action in safety ... The next day the evening post said there was a small problem at essence last night but the disturbence ended after a few mins and we were let back inside the club.... Still i loved essance\the womb etc Browns bar yay ...
