You feel like you on the cusp of chaos, randomness with a feeling that some strong yet strange lasso keeps it all under control (barely). You can't figure out why - but the edge of insanity and sanity interweave in a way that energizes, a way that fuels, a way that rules. No, no, there is no real danger... not in the physical (I�m going to get hurt myself).... but in the greater mind ("this could be explosive", "this could be me uninhibited") way. CZ is an organism. You get absorbed - you move as one, groove as one, dance a one, all flows en-mass. If not, you stand on the exterior, trying to figure it out, but never truly enjoying it. The key is to jump in to it - take the chance, risk your id (not I.D. - we're talking Freud's "Id")., expose yourself to the possibility of improbability and love every second. CZ is the untamed animal - the beast that tricks one in thinking that one has grappled it, but really is bigger, more powerful than the one. CZ is a church to the controlled random - the place for one to become oneself, without self-imposing (boundaries)... As one focuses on the whole, rather than the specific, CZ becomes magik to the tenth-degree, beyond linear. CZ is good. It requests intention, but gives back (exactly what has been intended). |

| Originally posted by Jem_hadar I did NO DRUGS at all when I was at the Zone. And I'd just come from a Guv party dancing all night and I'd done no drugs there either (so I was not sketchy at all, I was feeling fine and just naturally energized). You do NOT need drugs to enjoy the zone IMO. I had a fucking blast and no drugs were needed. As 2 ppl above stated, it's NOT a gay club! I see more gay men at Boa than I see at the Zone. One reason I happen to love the Zone is because of how hot it is down there -- I love dancing up a storm sans my shirt (a thing that is often common amoung gay men it seems from my experience). Even so, I certainly wasn't pressure or made to feel uncomfortable by any gay individuals there. Look past that shit, Jesus. At most, it'd be 50-50 straight-gay ppl, and no way it's even that high if you ask me. What's the problem? It's not like it's the Fly or Tangos, which are gay nightclubs/bars, almost ENTIRELY populated by gay men and women. Man, seriously, to enjoy the Zone, you gotta go in w/ an open mind and not be so predjudiced. jem. |
The first time I went to the zone i had a terrible time and thought i would never go back.
I wasn't ready for what it was and was overwhelmed by how many people were in that type of place, so dark and so hot early on sunday morning.
But then I went back, and have now been back many times and have a completely different idea of the place.
Every week they have a killer lineup of DJ's just waiting to kick your ass with some of the hardest stuff you'll ever hear.
When I'm in the comfort zone I find something very liberating about dancing in the dark to hard tribal music. There's noone watching what you're wearing or how you're dancing.
The thing that makes the zone special is the moment when Deko-ze or whoever is spinning is building up a huge track. Everyone crowds next to the dj, and you can literally stand right next to the dj. With the ceilings so low, and the lights almost out, it makes the atmosphere very intimate. When the beat drops and the couple hundred people in there are all jumping up and down as deko-ze screams like crazy it feels as if the entire room in moving up and down.
Guvernment can't duplicate that in a million years.
That's what makes the zone awesome!

First time I went there was with mushyflowa (Miluska) after Global Gathering for the Canada Day special or w/e. When I first got inside my back was already shivering. I might have been sketched but the place looked like a dirty sewer. Everyone looked like cannible hermits, and the lighting didn't make it any much better, with everyone's eyes extra white and green teeth. I thought I was saved when I found Graham, but then he introduced me to RJ who laid down the rules and things to watch out for, which made me even more freaked out lol. Things like don't stare at anyone, if someone asks you a question nod, don't go beyond the pool table, etc. It was frightful but I ended up having a good time, left around 2:30 pm

I went to the zone for the first time this past weekend after Above and Beyond. I must say, I had an interesting experience.
Got there around 10:30, Deko-ze was spinning an extended set. Got in, and some sketchy dude offered to crack all our backs 
. Eventually we got inside. The atmosphere was sketchy yeah, but it really didn't bother me. I go for the music, the rest is just background.
What freaked me out?
Some random guy grabbed me by the head. He looked into my ear, then said "dude, you got some sweet hair!"
I was like "umm.... ok?"
and after that, I danced until about noon. We lost one of the people that we were with, and looked everywhere for them. We walked back by the pool tables to see if they were in the washrooms, just smelled that hallway, and said to ourselves "EWW! NO ONE would wanna go back there!"
Half an hour later, we found out that they were back there :P
I'd go back, just for the music.
