Justin played one hell of a set, from progressive beats to acid basslines. Loved it.

Joy Orbison @ Joshua Brooks
Overall rating: 4

only problem I have with joshua brooks as a venue is its layout. People constantly walking through the crowd to get to the toilets or bar was a bit of a piss take. Really good set from Joy O despite technical glitches

Came out of retirement for this party...been seven years since I last indulged and felt like I'd never been away!! Fantastic crowd made the night complete in every sense...can't wait for the next one! Particular congrats to Chris and his team for booking quite possibly the world's best DJ too ;)

Dezza didn`t get out of 1st gear,support DJs fine.
Venue too small...bring back Music Box.
JB OK if you`re not bothered about moving around or wanting quality sound.

Overall rating: 4.5

Fantastic friendly night. Our second time at Content and already seeing familiar friendly faces. Took some friends who had a great time.
It was just a bit too rammed on the dancefloor at the top of the night - guess there's not a lot to be done about that.
We'll be back!

Ace night at Content- Joshua Brooks.
Overall rating: 4

Had the best night out in years! Great music, fantastic venue, super friendly crowd and cheap booze, what more could u ask for!? Haven't been to Joshua Brooks before or Content and was really impressed with both. The Content lads were friendly and welcoming and r on to a good thing there! Will definitely be goin back, hopefully in the not too distant future. Would recommend to anyone lookin for a top house night with an underground feel and an all round fun night out.

I should probably have trimmed my expectations in advance... even so, I thought Atkins wasn't very much into it.
