Planet Love Festival
Review...
The sun shone, 10,000 happy clubbers
danced, and some of the most famous DJs in the world smiled
and joined in the celebrations as Ireland’s Planet Love
festival broke new records of atmosphere and impact for this
it’s 6th annual outing.
Strains of trance, techno, hard house
and old skool vibes brought the tranquil surrounds of Shane’s
Castle, County Antrim, to life on Saturday 13th September
under three big canvasses and the Cool FM/Homegrown Outdoor
Stage.
It was the perfect dance music festival as - despite the
forecast - the weather was of high summer quality remaining
in the mid 20s Celsius all afternoon, with only a slight dip
in temperatures in the evening, leading to a balmy, late summer
night.
Dave Angel, Paul Van Dyk and Mauro Picotto were the most
anticipated DJ sets of the day, and exceeded all expectations,
while unique to Planet Love, The Rendezvous arena with its
happy hardcore moments and hi energy old skool vibe, was often
so full that a queue formed outside! As one person came out,
one went in, and so it went on all day - particularly during
the sets of local DJ Tizer, the legendary Charly Lownoise
and Pablo Gargano.
The Love Arena was the main attraction of the day and the
biggest crowd was attracted by Radio One DJ Judge Jules. Jules
travelled by private jet to the festival, accompanied by Eddie
Halliwell, Eddie’s brother Simon, and Jules’ Northern
Irish pal and producer/DJ Simon Patterson.
On the outdoor stage blistering performances were given by
the local contingent, especially Gleave Dobbin, and Love to
be a DJ winner Terry Keeley.
"It was the best ever," said proud promoter Eddie
Wray. "The crowd and the atmosphere from start to finish
was fabulous. Even at 1.45am, people were still outside having
a ball. It was fabulous to see. Roll on 2004."
And for anyone who missed the biggest party of the year,
2FM were broadcasting live from the site all day on Saturday,
while also recording a selection of top DJ sets to be broadcast
over the next few months.
