In 2002, Fatboy Slim threw a free party on Brighton Beach for 60,000 people but instead 250,000 showed up. The roads were gridlocked for 25 miles, the pubs ran out of beer, and the police almost called in the riot squad. This is the story of Big Beach Boutique II: a disaster that somehow wasn't. Ho…
