Hey SETAS-
I just moved back to Atlanta after over two years of absence. That means I haven't been on the scene for years... I'm just wondering, how has all of the drug legislation and the "rave" act affected the scene...and by scene, I mean all inclusive. This isn't just for Atlanta, I'm also interested in what's going on in Florida..
I mean, I see everyone's posts about club events, but I don't see anyone writing about raves... I know that when I was involved with the scene in Atl. back in 02, I was still going to parties, that were outside of clubs....
Tell me how you feel about the "health" of our scene overall...
I spent the last year in Europe, going to raves all over, from Global Gathering in England to Mayday in Germany and the scene over there is still abundantly healthy, especially outside of the clubs....
Anyway, I would appreicate your thoughts! :happy2: |

Full time edm LOL, ya right! Those radio stations never seem to work out. It really suck! I just went shopping all over ATL last weekend looking for new tunes, Tower records, Satelite Records, Little five points, media play freaking all over! I ened up haveing to order my from the UK. What a freaking joke! It seems like the reset of society has never even heard of EDM except at the club.
Sorrry it upsets me a little bit..... I miss Orlando!:conf: |

| I wish we could throw a massive old school rave, without fear, and have it go off without a hitch and single handedly rekindle the rave scene...... I miss the love and release....clubs just aren't the same....:sadgreen: |

Hey Matt. Things just aren't like how they used to be before you left. You've been gone for a while. Things had already started to change even before you left.
Paul is spinning at the Amphitheater on the 26th. Why don't you make another trip down? We would love to have you. We could go to Floyds afterwards. ;) |

That's incredibly sweet Amber and I seriously appreciate your offer!
It helps to know that even though the rave scene isn't here anymore, the people still are....
I wish I could come next week, but I'm doing the whole job search thing right now and money is tight... I'm gonna come as soon as I get things squared away and get a little more stable.... WMC isn't an option for me this year either....:whip: |

Hey There!
I have been going to parties in Atlanta since 1999 and I have seen it changed so much. We don't have those parties anymore that you speak of. I wish we did :( Those were some classics..New Orleans still has huge events from what I hear at the State Palace. Atlanta is more now a 21+ club driven city. All our good venues are gone (:whip: Thanks to all the ing druggies! you got us kicked out! :whip: ) and things close at 3! but you know I'm content with it being in the clubs now. I got sick of tripping all over people and dealing with all the you had to deal with at big parties. |
