A report about how "God's basement" is promoting all sorts of illegal drugs and crap.
Its amazing how you can spin a story with editing, bias, and showing only one point of view. Thus why many don't like Michael Moore... but that's beyond the point.
Ravers are stereotyped, Kids who pop "e" like candy, listen to techno music, and get crazy messed up just to get messed up. But that's not really what its about at all.
I'm a sober raver.
Always have been, always will be.
For me there are no drugs needed to feel the vibe at a good party.
Electronica music is a natural high, the dance beats per minute betweeen 130-135, the synths, the tones, the trippy bandwith transitions, its all meant to make you feel euphoric. You can't help but smile when your there. You can feel the endorphines blurring through your brain, you chest leaps to the music, and your happy.
For me its about the vibe of a good party. I hang out with the sober crowd, or keep an eye on those who might need help. Its called watching each others backs, always being there for one another. Give a lightshow, enjoy the scene.
If you party with me, you know that I honestly don't need drugs to feel higher than most people there. All I need is a good vibe, good music, and a good group of friends to dance with. Then the night is set for epicness.
That's what really makes me mad though. The people who don't get it, the people who focus all their attention on the negative. Yes, promoters always try for drug free, and its those crazy ravers who sneak in drugs. People sneak in everything to anything.
C'mon who hasn't snuck in food to the movies? You can't stop everything. even if you really try.
People can't let go though. Through the years, I've learned a lot about people. Don't try to change people. Don't force your own ideals on people. People tend to listen better by following your set example. People call me smart for never experimenting with drugs. I've been looked up to for it. Some people want to change to be like me. I don't force them. I learned that the people I usually chill with, are the people who don't do those kind of drugs anyways.
What the Rave scene is really about is Respect. Respect for the indiviual, and respect for the party. All the party is for is fun. So you hug your friends, dance the night away, and play with glowly lights and amusing yourself and others.
You'll sweat out the bad vibes, the negativity, and the real unforgiving world.... just for one night.
That's what makes it worth it.

watching that news story mad me so pissed off. I mean come on. all a rave is is a concert with electronica music instead of the typical rock, hip/hop, metal, etc. And at all of those types of concerts you can go in and find huge numbers of people smoking and doing drugs. basically people need to learn to open there eyes and see the whole picture before they decide to bash something.
