Don't know if you'd call it legendary, but here's another night biting the dust, for the time being anyway... ----- Original Message ----- From: jim masters To: base london Sent: Saturday, July 20, 2002 5:38 PM Subject: VELVET TO CLOSE - LAST BASE @ VELVET THIS THURSDAY BASE - THE FINALE THURSDAY 25TH JULY with JIM MASTERS, TREVOR ROCKCLIFFE, BRENDA RUSSELL, DJ LULU plus special surprise guests @ The Velvet Rooms 143 Charing Cross Road London 10pm - 4am It is with regret that we have to announce the last BASE party at the Velvet Rooms, will take place this Thursday 25th July 2002. The building The Velvet Rooms is in is owned by Railtrack and due to redevelopment of Tottenham Court Road tube station building work was due to begin in 2003 leading to the closure of The Velvet Rooms. However in true f**ked up railtrack fashion they have given Velvet 2 weeks notice of closure. (It's funny, the trains are always late but the building work is early!??!) We have enjoyed over 6 years of amazing Ultimate Base & BASE parties with the world's highest acclaimed international DJ's and artists at Velvet and we leave there with more than a tinge of sadness and fond memories. Due to such short notice of the closure, we do not have another venue suitable to continue the BASE night ready to move to. We will be looking at alternative venues and if we find one suitable for us then we will look to re-open in the near future. If anyone has any ideas then please let us know. We will still be doing BASE specials at The End and other venues in London, the UK and Europe This does not affect our monthly party in Barcelona and the weekly party at El Cel in Ibiza. Our final night will of course feature the residents JIM MASTERS, TREVOR ROCKCLIFFE, BRENDA RUSSELL & DJ LULU plus a few special guests from the last few years. Please can you forward this email onto all your contacts & help BASE go out with a blast - take Friday off work! C U there! The BASE posse..... Jim, Trevor, Brenda & Lulu, Jason S, Jason M, Lorna, Annabelle & Jess Thanks to Billy, Dexter, Johnathon, Matt, Dizzy, Mike, Mo, Leon, Nicky and everyone at Velvet and to Paul W, Red Marc, Garrie, Terry, Craig, Frankie D, Kev Uber, Darren C and everybody else who has helped with the night.
