Boomerang — The Revival Dance

Catalogue note

Double-sided flyer for Maverick Promotions in conjunction with Boomerang, presenting The Revival Dance at Cloud 9, Vauxhall, on 8 March 1996. The bill includes Randall, Kenny Ken, Micky Finn, Brockie and a substantial jungle/drum-and-bass supporting cast. The reverse is unusually documentary: it sets out a manifesto for a 'strictly members only' rave intended to revive unity and music-first values, alongside a large regional ticket-outlet network, named agents, venue directions, membership form and production claims.

Advertised programme: Randall; Kenny Ken; Micky Finn; Brockie; Ronisize; Darren J; Nicky (Black Market); Flapjack; Master Vibe; Flare; Triga; Kids; KMC; MCs Det, GQ, Stevie Hyper D, Deman & Flinty (Raggatwins)

Historical context: The reverse frames Revival Dance as a deliberate attempt to restore unity and music-first values to a rave scene the promoters felt had become fragmented, while explicitly referencing Jungle, drum and bass and rave history.

Condition note: Strong colour and legibility. Visible handling creases and surface marks, with corner/edge wear and small local abrasions; no major loss affecting the event information is apparent in the supplied photographs.
