how safe is the vancouver scene?

so, the last two raves have had major fights break out
there are more and more posers and thugs at trance parties
gangsters have been coming to parties for a while now, but they've kept to themselves without big public displays for the most part

so do you feel safe when partying?

a fight broke out at the november rave between two rival gangs
same two gangs had two more fights at freeze last weekend, there were even rumors of a shooting, which did not happen, btw. but the fights were so bad that people were hitting someone else with chairs, rather scary if you ask me


out of towners are worried about their safety, concerned about other parties they planned on coming to

3/10 for plush? even for big events like avb? That's sick. You'd think the big scary black bouncers would keep them away at least some amount.

Agreed, plush security must be the worst around.


That one guy keeps letting his gangster friends in for 500$ or rediculous prices like that, and they casually walk in with weapons.

plush is actually pretty bad on average if you consider other nights
i've seen a mob of girls drag by the hair and kick two other girls, seen regular guy fights outside too

trance nights there are probably the safer ones

i'm more scared of the security at plush than the crowd. i've been shoved around by them for no reason, and one time i was trying to get an autograph and was grabbed by the shirt collar and thrown out. i also saw marty take a nose dive, drunk, off a stage, they didn't even care to make sure he was alright before sending him out, they just tossed him out. i think elena also told me, one night when i was there, about them shoving someone off a stage or stairs or something. meh, take it all with a grain of salt though. as i said, i haven't been there in ages so i'm sure the crews are different.

ive only seen one fight at Aqua when i saw Andy Moor...
overall i think trance music nights are safer than say hip-hop events and such.
but its probably cus i havent heard of lots of these fights..

really? That's where people always get stabbed or shot. I never take richards between 1am and 3am cause half the time the police have it closed off investigating something.
