Got into it early 1991, but was too young to go anywhere then
Used to go downto shelleys and entropy car park to hang around and hear the 'thud thud thud' from outside.
I think that we were dead lucky here as we had really gud under 18 nights that played proper music, thats where i heard most of the stuff i love today - modular expansion, the tapes, digital boy, trigger etc etc( (list is endless). Saw altern 8, daz willot at shelleys too.
Started to go to kinetic at 15 and thats where i stayed really until i discovered Golden.
