For the record, I blame everything wrong with the current scene on Jeff Button. |
Why would you blame him??
You'd have to be a leader to deserve any blame in changing something...
He's just a follower... |

who are we to judge that it this is not positive though? |
Are you kidding? By that same token, who are we to judge that it is? Furthermore, as patrons/consumers/participants - whatever you want to call it - of the scene, we have every right to judge it. |

Personally, I just avoid these people and spend my time with those who don't participate in this backwards way of thinking, and who like to have a good time, instead of standing around watching to see if everyone notices how cool they are. |

There isn't any "scene" to save though.
Every generation has their own era and brand/style of partying.
The era of clubbing and raving I was a part of owed a lot to growing up @ a time that saw the rebirth of the 60s & 70s ideals, lots of musical movements either in their infancy, being rediscovered, or evolving & attaining popularity.
The current era still has those elements, but it's the domain of those that grew up on Brittany and American Idol now.
Things didn't "have" to go mainstream in order to ensure the scene persevered, but it did so because that's what happens to generational movements.
They get absorbed into the pop culture consciousness and the next generation takes what they like and mashes them up with the rest.
Look @ punk, funk, folk, or any music you see advertised @ 3am in a boxset during an infomercial. |
Nothing is the same it once was, so why should the scene be an exception? For some people here the heyday was 2004, but I'm sure for some of the real old-schoolers 2004 was a crock of and was nothing compared to the purity that was 1998. is never the way it used to be, and to be complaining about it when you yourself aren't even an active member in the scene is even more ridiculous.
Just face it, you got old, your raving days are behind you now let the kids make the most out of THEIR scene. Yeah to you their scene might seem like balls, but how can you judge what they feel? I'm sure they think every night of theirs is an adventure and soul searching journey, just like you did when you started.
We all have a party life-span (usually lasts 5 years, anything more than that and you need to re-asses your life) where the first few years are the most *magical* and then after a thousand parties its just another night. I'm sure every partier has gone through the same motions, and the people entering the scene now will be complaining in 2015 (thats if the world doesnt end by then) how things just weren't like they used to be. |
