The Cream event (with a Tiesto 3 hr set) is on the 1st of June, so you're not too late mate.
Unofficial pre-parties and after-parties for Promise are popping up all over the place now it seems. This Friday Taucher is at Promise @ Foundation. It's only on until 3am, but get yourself to the pre-party just down the road. It's an unofficial thing. Go into a building called Egypt's Cottage, go upstairs, anyone is welcome, and it's free. They'll start caning out tunes from 6/7pm, then you can head to Promise at 10.
Shindig (Saturday) is more of a housey night, so I've heard. Friday is better, that is the trance night.
If you have some cash, there's a nice weekender lined up at the start of June. June 1st is Cream at Telewest Arena. 7,500 people. Corvin Dalek, Tiesto (3hrs), Seb Fontaine, Oliver Klein, Scott Bond. 9pm until 6am. Then, the day after 20 miles down the road in Middleboro is Judgement Sunday. 7,000 people, Judge Jules, Ferry Corsten, Armin van Buuren, and Mauro Picotto. 8:30pm until 5/6am. I'll have a look around for pre/after-parties. Not sure if we'll have luck that weekend, but there was for the Godskitchen Carnival at Telewest.
Both those nights cost around 25-30 quid each, but the lineups are good, and both are very cheap to get to.
Btw, PSi, how long you been out of Newcastle anyway? Still got a geordie accent?
