ICING 97 14 - 18 of June, 1997 In Vättlehallen, Stenkullen (A suburb of Gothenburg, Sweden) Entrance Fee 200 SEK at the door, 170 SEK in advance. How to get there CAR. If you're travelling by car, take the E20 towards Stockholm or Göteborg, depending on where you start. When you reach Kastenhofsmotet, leave the highway and follow the signs saying "Stenkullen". Having arrived at the center of Stenkullen, turn left into the street called Gråbovägen. After about 300 metres you have Vättlehallen, the party place, on your right hand. TRAIN, BOAT, PLANE. When travelling using any of these vehicles you should get to Göteborg as a start. If you are one of those rich chaps or maybe a bit lazy, the right thing for you to do is to call for a cab and make the driver follow the description above. The other alternative is to locate Centralstation, the main ( and only) railway station of Göteborg and catch the local train towards Lerum. Get off at Stenkullen, the first stop after Lerum. Proceed straight forward on foot about 250 meters and you face Vättlehallen, the party place. Signs in the surrounding of the party place will guide you; you cannot virtually fail to find Icing '97. If you still do, just ask some nice- looking fellow to explain the way to the icehall "Vättlehallen". --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Icing'97 took place the 14 - 18 of june, 1997 and had... - 240 visitors - 9 main organizers - 11 floormen - Way too little prizemoney :) Entrance fee: 200 sek at the door, 180 sek in advance.

I've probably forgot many things too. This year, Icing and Remedy was at the same time, so ofcourse I knew that it wouldn't come so many visitors. But quite many showed up, maybe it was 250 people there. Probably a little less. I came to Stenkullen approx. an half hour before the whole party should start. Above the entrence of the icehall "vättlehallen" was a small sign that stated "Icing'97 - Stock". For you readers who doesn't know what the word "stock" means it is a another word for dick often used by Goto10. When I stood in the line and waited, Flex/Blocc and Poison/Blocc showed up. They where already inside. Flex carried my computer stuffs inside the icehall, and I still waited in the waiting line. They had two lines. One for those who had payed in advance, and one for those who was going to pay at the place. After 20 minutes I came in. They had changed the bigscreen location this year. Now it was on the long side of the icehall. I think that it was better to have it there. Poison had already got a table for us a bit left of the bigscreen. I walked there and started to unpack my computer. When it was done Namnam/Blocc came into the party hall. Now the attendants started to come, and the hall started to get crowded. Some time after my computer was unpacked. Poison came and asked me if the Proxima dudes could borrow my computer to finnish their 64k intro. Ofcourse they could. Calvin, Jaws and Bounty came over to our table, and I plugged in one of theirs harddrives. They started to work on their 64k called Gut Gut Gut Gut. Flex/Blocc worked hard to finish our demo, and I started to paint the credit logos on Jus/Tea notebook. In my opinion they didn't look good when I've finished them, but they where quite allright. They also had some boring suprise compos. Paint Spice Girls and track a Wannabe module. I also met Patrik/ex Orca and Alex/Orca who where working on their really good 64k intro called "Room 101". In the cafeteria they sold Pizzas with quite long delivery time, and baguettes, also known as bigstocks. The baguettes really tasted good, so I ate them the most of the party, ofcourse I ate some bread that i brought from home too. The pizzas was really to expensive, some of them costed 60sek about $8. The icehall was mostly filled with game-lamers. They where playing quake all the time. There wasn't too many sceners at icing. But still a lot more then some other Swedish parties. After a while DJ Cat/Keso was kicked out of the party place because he drank beer. The organizers also talked with the Proxima guys because they drank beer outside the party place when having a barbeque. But they where not drunk, so the organizers didn't care. The most competistions sucked, many pictures looked like scans+photoshop. The modules/demos/intros wasn't so good, with some exeptions. Liket/Goto10 was angry at Poison because he had friends-voted at some parties before, (he have told all his friends to vote for him) so after the voting, Liket walked around and told everyone that hadn't voted yet to vote. But not on Poison. He opened the voting machines again, so everyone who hadn't voted could do it. Poison ended up 2nd in 4chn with Jus/Blocc. His multichannel came at 4th place. Ofcourse those who voted again didn't have to vote like Liket said, but most of them did. One of the coolest suprise compos was the one when you was supposed to make a module, background pic and dance to it on the bigscreen. It was a big laugh when the Norwiegans danced disco, and stripped to the sand4 song, "discotime"/ Stor Hamzter. Theisen danced to Liket's gabber tune, and won. But it was a really tight compo, I thoght that the others won, but well, it was Liket's tune, and he was the judge, maybe that is why Theisen won. There really isn't so much more to say about Icing '97. If you want to see the contributions, some screenshots are in this article. But check on Arosnet or Hornet if you want the contributions.
