Couldnt agree with this statement anymore soups.. I've only been gone a few years and theres been a massive turn around.. These events are now a place to be seen for tossers and their minions..
| quote: | The majority actually care about things like massive set-rigs, clown dancers and all of that 'glamourised' because clubbers themselves have become more glamourised.
Now instead of phat-pant ravers who are there simply the get off their heads and dance all night, you have girls who want to show off their bodies like sluts, and male skegs who cant wait to remove their shirts to show off their last 6months in the gym.
Interesting how we used to complain about the phat-panters, however i'd be quite happy to dance in a pack of them, compared with the rock-ape like creatures that frequent dance parties now. |

this is 100% what is wrong with the dance scene in Melbourne now... and perhaps the whole world.. i dont know!!
the strange thing is, apparently greeks/italians/lebonese/turks or whatever the hell they are don't act like this in their native country.
i suppose muzza knows no bounds..
what do these people do 9-5?? Are they the personal trainers/mechanics/adminstrative assistants or part of the 5.5% unemployment rate?

I was actually about to start a thread last night asking if other people thought that festivals were ruining the scene.
They're definitely something to be seen at, rather than being something to go and enjoy the music. Apparently yesterday at We Lvoe Sounds Adelaide there were a large number of girls wearing skanky clothes and mini-skirts. Not so much of a problem normally except it was an outdoor party in a park (ie, mud), about 14 degrees and storms throughout the day. The tool factor is massive at these parties.
And i think that the festivals are ruining the club scene too. Think back 4-5 years, the number of big names playing in clubs was massive. Now, you get very few (relatively) club gigs and mostly festivals. At least thats whats happening here in Adelaide, its not very common to see quality acts in clubs anymore.
I would do naughty things to see some quality acts in a club nowadays. The festivals just don't cut it for atmosphere, sound quality, drink prices and the ability to just let go.
And the strange thing is, the festivals here are massive, but when there is a quality club night the club is deserted. Where are the punters that go to the festivals and claim to love the music? Just further proof imo that festivals are much more about being something to be seen at, or going just because its Future Music or We Love Sounds or Groove etc. |
