Last year's iDance
Wasn't last year's iDance about showing Mel Lastman that raves aren't about the drugs? I believe that last year a few people Overdosed on drugs at the iDance, and therefore proving Mel's point that kids under 19 going to rave don't know how to handle themselves. One E is all you need people!

Actually, last year was a success with no overdoses...
Idance is to show our Unity in this scene, and that they can't take certain freedoms away from us. We're rallying so against laws like no dancing after a certain time at any place where loud electronic music is being played. It's for all politics to understand that the rave scene is here to stay, and that we are poeple who vote for elections and all that crap and demand respect. It's to show that the scene isn't about drugs and that there's no guns and crap like that that the media tries to make it out to be. It's also a rally for other rave communities in other cities in America that are having problems with their politicians tryin to ban raves.

Idance
What I said about people overdosing is the truth. Also a few people got busted for possession. Please don’t feed me bullshit about it only being about the music. From my experience, I’ve always preferred being at a rave or a club drugged. I’ve been at clubs sober. Does it suck? Hell yes! It’s the ideal music for taking drugs and enjoying oneself. It’s like your telling me that you go to your local pub to drink coke, because it’s not about drinking but enjoying the hard rock music! The majority of the people at these events are all fucked! I love the music. It’s pretty much all I listen to. But clubs and drugs mix too well together.

well said Noise!!!! It does suck when you go to a rave sober. You try be at a rave sober for like 8 hours and see what it feels like! The music and the drugs just go well together.

I agree
I agree that they go well together and that's why so many of us do it but

If this had said "isn't just about drug's" I think it would be clearer a least that's the way I read it......I have friends who never go to clubs or parties and they think that the only reason I go is to do E...these are the same people who sit around and watch movies and pop some shroom's.
Oh well they will never understand because they don't care about the music the way I do but i wish they'd understand that the tunes come first I don't just listen when I go to the club. It's in my car,on my stereo, it wakes my ass up in the morn....
Hell talk about drugs and music when I was 15 I went to see Steve Miller(don't ask) at canadas wonderland and the amount of weed in the place was incredible but it just went hand and hand....or should i say hand to hand ..hehehe

i don't know about you, but i can rave sober and have a good time, but i prefer to get fucked up instead (most of the time, but not always). As far raves sucking when your sober, i can't agree with that, the only reason why it would suck for me is if the dj's spinning that night sucked hardcore.

I agree even though E has been so cemented in the rave culture, for a lot of people (myself included) the music has always come first. I mean i do enjoy going to raves and get all messed up and stuff but i don't abuse it. The music and meeting new people should always come first. That's why we are in these forums and found this great site. For me there's nothing more gratifying than finding a great new house/trance track or hearing a great tune from a club and finally getting my grubby hands on it.
My first experience at a rave was fantastic, it was nothing like what i had thought it to be. I had the best time of my life and i just popped a half of a teensy weensy pill I find it sad that a lot of people look down upon raves and don't really understand what it is all about. It's also sad to see people going to parties just to get high also. The music and the people should ALWAYS come first, and then you will find you will have a much better time.

True..
Yes! The music definitely out weights the drugs. You could take really good drugs and still have a lame time. I went to Guy Ornadel, I thought the set was ok. I found allot of unnecessary aggressiveness and hackling of women from people who just “try too hard”.
You people know of places where the crowd is chill and easy going?
