Joe (Labrynth) was running a pub down the road to us and we went out to one of these parties and, “wow Joe, what you doing here ….” We did our first party with Joe up in North London and then we got the warehouse.<\/p>Heidi & Richard John<\/em>, Pete’s Voodoo Room (Youtube<\/a>)<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It’s hard to piece together solid information about the origins of the early Every Picture Tells A Story events. Richard & Heidi had great success in Melbourne promoting events under this name, but the early London parties from around 88 & 89 don’t seem to have used this on any promotional flyers (that I can find). It was only during 1991 after Richard & Heidi had emigrated, that events with this name began to appear promoted by Labrynth and 2000AD and then later, Labrynth & Ravescene.

In an interview with Joe Wieczorek<\/a>, he indicates the first party they organised together took place on the 14th October 1988 at Vale Road, Manor House and was titled, “Another Serious Wicked Rave”. The following night, the 15th, was the first ever Labrynth event. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Joe goes on to say, “We could get 5 or 6 hundred in our offices (Wapping) and it was a great time where we were doing parties most weeks. We had another one called zero zero (Bermondsey) and we would use that as well. I think we even did an early Every Picture Tells A Story, but I think we only did one then and there was a gap of a couple of years. We just stuck to Labyrinth after that.<\/em>“<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heidi and Richard gave me a massive amount of help and financial support, and it was with them that I did the first ever Labrynth. It wasn’t really meant to be at all – it was quite by accident. The original party was on a Friday night called “Another Serious Wicked Rave” and we only really got the second night by chance.<\/p>An Interview with… Joe Wieczorek – theravegeneration.co.uk<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
