digitalphoenix Posted April 7 Report Share Posted April 7 Fatboy Slim's beach bash binnedLast updated 05 April 2004Fatboy Slim's plans to stage a Brighton beach party have been cancelled.The star, also known as Norman Cook, had hoped to stage the event in July but talks with the local council have broken down.According to the DJ's spokesman, plans have been shelved over fears public transport will not be able to cope with the volume of people expected:"We hope that transport infrastructure will be in place soon so that events like this can take place in Brighton in future years."Norman's Brighton beach party in 2002 ended in chaos when 250,000 revellers turned up, overwhelming the transport system and causing it to grind to a halt.Despite a ticket-only policy for this year's bash, Sue John of Brighton and Hove City Council said they didn't want to risk a repeat of 2002:"The event that happened two years ago took us by surprise. Although it was fantastic in some ways it had every danger of turning into a catastrophe.""We cannot take the risk of that happening again."

erickamikaze Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 hey Funk, the Fatboy CD with Fucking in Heaven on it is still one of the best overall electronic CD's I have in my collection.I still get goose bumps when I hear California, I like the thick and juicy bass in it.

livin42nite Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 Not just one of best electronic albums, but one of the best albums I've ever listened to. I'd love to see him play somewhere in Miami, but fat chance of seeing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djss Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 Norman Cook...My biggest influence when it comes to spinning and producing.From the late '80s- The House Martins to Now, this guy is incredibly talented and always fun.Can we please get him down here in Miami?It's been years since I've seen him in Orlando and Toronto.Is his style not apealing to Miami?SSI forgot to add also, that event Live From Brighton Beach is on DVD - highly recomended!
