#5 is wrong, read his bio. I know the Hacienda is the club most people say, but according to his bio on his site, it's SHELLY's. That's where Renaissance was recorded and that's where he met John Digweed.
Here's the quote from his bio...
"After honing his deck technique, Sasha's first big break came when he was offered a residency at Stokes legendary club Shelly's. When all the other DJ's were playing US House, Sasha's style was much more uplifting, and he encapsulated clubbers with his mixture of piano led Italian House whilst playing acapella tracks over the top. This combination alongside a wide variety of anthems kept dancefloors full and elevated Sasha to hero status. And, lets not forget, in a world where the DJ had too often been bespectacled nerds, here the headline DJ had the looks and charm to match his growing following. In classic rock n' roll style, here was a star that boys wanted to hang out with and girls wanted to get just that little more bit close to.
Shelly's was the launch pad for the residency at Renaissance, where Sasha created his niche and helped forge a new style in UK house music. At Renaissance two major things happened; Sasha mixed the first ever UK DJ mix album and he met John Digweed which cemented the partnership known as 'Northern Exposure'. Sasha and John have played together on five continents, have mixed 3 'Northern Exposure' albums which have sold to over 1 million people worldwide. This special brother like relationship that Sasha and Digweed have on the decks, is what landed them the monthly residency at New York's "Twilo", following in the footsteps of Vasquez and Tenaglia." |

aye...but it wasn't in Manchester. he first started playing at Hacienda's. i don't remember where i read it...but it was something along the lines of:
"he would come here (hacienda's) every day after football practice to hang out. i remember once he said "I'im going to be playing here soon". i told him 'of course you will, you're here everyday'"
wish i could remember where i read that :( |

| Oh well I don't care, I'm not going, even if I would've won I still wouldve not gone. I prolly would've given the ticket to Clovis or Bas. hehehehe :-P But from your wording I got the impression that it was 4 tickets per winner. :whip: That would've made my trip worth while. |
