But it is all that

+ Roid monkeys

+ hundreds of hurting goofs

+ 15 year old girls doing e for the first time

you're absolutely right there
i've got a friend who calls himself a closet trance fan
actually, a closet techno fan
he likes prog trance, matthew dekay style, but he calls it the bleepy techno
i've been trying to explain that to him that its trance for a good 5-6 years now
he refuses to stop using the word 'techno'
and sadly, this city is full of people with thick heads
whats even sadder, is that there's no convincing them
and that just blows donkeys

I think it all has to start with promoters. Also, I can't go that long without drinking. =/

matter of perspective and what we're exposed to, and what we choose to expose ourselves to. someone who listens to popular music of the christian augilera, britney spears persuasion, for example, might call me thick headed because i choose not to listen to that. hehe.

but yeah i've heard the stories about the 'raves' around here, even from yourself apri, and yeah tayfoon's right, a lot of these events live up to people's 'expectations' of the 'scene' and therefore feel justified in believing its ALL the same, that all events are the same and all the music is the same and not worth their time.

obviously you haven't seen the Dateline "Predator" episodes.
