House Parties‘If rocking the house is a crime…then let me be guilty’. Not my words, Carol, the words of proto ravecore pioneers Genaside II. We all love a party – or do we?
There always used to be a girl crying on the stairs, who’d drunk too much vodka. Or someone would crap in the bath. What’s the most revolting/hilarious thing you’ve seen at a party? The worst house-trashing you’ve seen?

New Year's Eve 1987.A three-storey terrace in Reading. Booze, crisps, music - not a bad party. So far, so ordinary.
After a few pints, nature calls. What I know is the only inside loo (on 2nd floor) is marked "Ladies". Where do us menz go for a slash, then?
I follow the men's toilet signs to a small open window at the very top of the stairs. This leads out onto tiny area of flat roof between the pitched roof of this house and the next. The men's toilet is the gutter that takes the rainwater away from this natural valley. Four feet to the left is an unguarded 25ft drop.
Looking back, it was an absolute miracle that no-one celebrated the new year by drunkenly pitching themselves off the roof.
