    Anyone else coming to Reclaim the Future? Massive anti-war, anti-capitalist ska-punk squat, i've been to a few of the squats, they're absolutely mental, usually 24 hours, thousands of people, brilliant bands (if you like ska, punk, pyschedelic, dub, + drum n bass rooms etc).

    Apparently it's not going to be in the seven sisters skatejam squat because it wouldn't fit! and that fits more than a thousand people. I'll prob be leafleting for school students against war, got to get organised and get a stall though. All the info's below, give me a ring for location on the day if you're interested (0 7 9 6 9 1 8 3 5 2 6).j

    No replies?! Do none of you want to have fun? It's easily going to be the best thing that's happened all March. Although I don't know what the other contenders would be.

    Ahh man, wish I could go. Alas I have to be up and at home at 9.30 am to enter the Glastonbury ticket buying race. Can't miss that for anything. Gonna win me a gold medal this year. Do keep us posted on these though, as I'd definitely be up for one over the summer and could stay in London....

    sounds cool man - I know loads of people who would like to go - I will send out some info to them - thanks - squat parties are always the best! they do the hardest dancefloor music ever - no half measures

    I like the idea of 12v soundsystems

    I been to a few squat parties. I hate the toilet experience at those places - its bad enough when u tun up to some old factory or disused warehouse and its frezin cold but when u find ouit the bogs dont flush thats a disaster
