ya know man, i dont hate ravers nor do i degrade what your doing...i just think and know from experience that most ravers are only temporary fans of the music. When the rolling fades away in their life, so does their liking for edm. I just dont dig that personally. I know the ed hardy cats at the club can be douches but for the most part they know the artist they came to see. I just prefer an environment where people who know the music to some degree is the majority. I dont hate what your doing..im just not a fan of the rave movement. Never have been and i was there back when. Do your thing though. |
First, I need to make clear that I have nothing to do with this event. I was just offering my opinion. As far as I know, the promoter for this event doesn't even know there is a discussion here about it. He isn't promoting to you guys anyway.
I may be an exception to your experiences then as I was most definitely a raver and my love for EDM has never faded. My first party was the first Beyond in Winston-Salem thrown by Liquid Groove and Hypersonic back in '96 and it did indeed change my life. I was already in my 20's then and maybe that is the difference. I am sure the temporary aspect that you are refering to has more to do with being young and fickle than it does with actually being a raver.
Beyond that, I respect your opinion and can leave it at that. |

Not to mention we probably wouldn't have a Liquified without a Liquid Groove first. |

It doesn't mean we must relive the experience over and over again. Nor pass down the subculture to kids. |

Why is there so much hate against Raves?
You guys must not have been to a good one if ya'll don't appreciate it.
Raves are EDM imo. Energy, friendly people, killer music. Great times.
So what if 1/2 the people there are rolling balls and rubbing your hair. They're ing tranced the out. Let them experience the moment. |

| Pretty sure the house music/techno scene had little to do with candy ravers. |

| Rave scene is dead. If a person wants to go rave...i could give 2 s. I seriously doubt you will catch most people here at one. Then again, if thats your thing then go. Pick up junkproject on your way, 2 bottles of vicks, and a few flashing pacifiers. HELL YEAH.:whip: |

The DC/ Baltimore house music/ techno scene had everything to do with ravers in the mid-90's. Not so much candy ravers - but definitely ravers. I didn't really see many candy kids until moving to the ATL. Up north it was mosltly big pants, hoodies, baggy shirts (Polo, Hillfiger, or Nautica) and ball caps. |
