Just got home from an outdoor rave, and it got me wondering, who all here goes raving?

Note:  This is not meant to encourage drug and alchohol use by underage kids while camping.

You mean like a mentally insane person might? What did you rave about?

I could be said to rave at all times, mentally speaking.

[Shrike]

Er...... it's evident CP doesn't.

Well, i do enjoy a bit of dance music from time to time.  Haven't actually been out clubbing yet, u need to be 18 for pretty much everywhere.

I did however venture into the dance tent a few times when i was at T in the Park (scottish music festival), where i saw Layo and Bushwaka, and Groove armada.  The dance tent was pretty cool, absolutly huge, about 80 meters long. Quite dark inside, but very loud, with some light displays and a few big screens on the DJ's stage.

...I also the Chemical brothers on the main stage on the sunday night. I was in the front section of the croud, and they were really good.  The set was about 1 hour 30 mins,all their best songs from the current album and the older ones, plus a big light show... and the Basement Jaxx played the NME stage on saturday night.  I stated off watching Oasis, but i didnt really like them, so i left my friends and went to see the Jaxxs.  Great decision.  The croud were well up for it, the mixing and visuals were great, live vocals, plus they had Rio De Janero style carnaval dancers for a few of their songs (they have quite a latin sound).

On summer i hope to go to Ibiza.

I've never raved about raves. I don't like the music. But still, to each his own...

This is not meant to encourage drug and alchohol use...[/b]

Does this imply that you did anyway?

Unfortunately i've never sampled the "unique" atmosphere - i've always been in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Do most nights down the students' union though - minus the hard drugs I guess its the same (except they play no electronica at all...just crappy cheese and garage)

Ah, the life that awaits me in less than a month...

But hey - I like electronica, and I wouldn't class it alongside rave music just because it's called IDM.

[wEvil]

well..I view what was affectionately termed "rave" music as an uncontrolled form of the more euphoric stuff I enjoy most.

One tip:  Don't buy bottled beer, its a ripoff!

[Kellan]

I like the more ambient and complex electronic stuff.

And get on ICQ, biatch. Your PM box is full.

I don't dance.  I just don't like to dance, it's just all moving in a funny way to what you think is the flow of the music, however most of the time people get it wrong.  Drugs, I don't do drugs nor ever want to do them.  Seeing sounds and hearing colors so I can screw up my DNA and brain cells just doesn't seem fun to me.  And knocking up some stoned dirty slut afterwards does has some sort of turn off to it I don't know what yet.  Maybe her preaching to the toilet might be it.

Ecstacy? Great... releases all your happiness hormones all at once so you can never be happy again. Sounds like fun.

I pride myself on being demented WITHOUT the use of mind-altering drugs. I know all about drugs and what they do to you, but have never experimented. [in-character]Standard Imperial policy, of course.[/in-character]

So if you know the effects of drugs, why do you give blatantly false information?  E does not make it so 'you can never be happy again.'

Sheesh....
