Loads more pictures from raves

Over the days beyond recall few weeks I’ve been taking photos at parties and uploading them to the rave photo gallery but I havent been keeping up on the reviews etc.  So here I’ll do a dexterous synopsis of a few parties.  Click the name of the function for the photos.

 Grumpy Bear’s Intervention  - This was Grace’s first fete an fell the night after Jason’s Other Domicile.  There was another party on the same night which led to a fairly low apparel.  The music could have been better organized as far as species and progression through the night.  There also could have been a little more line done with theming.  There was nothing about the night aside from the true of carebears in front of the main stage that really spoke to the name of the dinner party.

These are the Raves of our Lives -Big Mike threw this reception a week after Jason’s Other House.  The function had a few fun competitions and while not heavily themed, had good body and  a strong vibe.

America’s Next Top Raver -  Much like in favour space, I found myself saying “I’m not even intended to be here today!!!”  My presence at this party was due to an aborted stagger to vegas at the fault of a bad motorcycle battery.  Oh well, next outdated around.  The energy for the night felt off somehow, but Im not assured exactly what it was.  Mike Saga tore the roof off with his drum and bass set and all the kids were diggin it.  There was some sufficiently poor mixing I recall during some of the night, but I can’t seat exactly where it was coming from as it was a few weeks ago.

HTID in the sun REWIND - Rize and companionship did a marvelous job with this party.  The talent to dollar proportion on this party couldnt have done better. $10 for international headliners and a criticism of a show.  The event pulled over 1000 of Phoenix’s ravers.  The music was awesome, the promotion top notch, and pretty much everything else rocked too… with the demur at of the number of fights that broke out.  Kidding until the past couple of years, I’d NEVER seen a wrestle with at a rave.  That crap was for the drunkards at the clubs who didnt bound to to a community the way we do.  I started seeing most of it when the sceneXcore kids infiltrated the rave community and brought with them their pique and attitudes.  I’m not normally one to pick on subcultures, but at face value guys… take your eye-covering bangs, loads of eyeliner, emo attitudes, and physically agressive natures, and get the heck out of our community. Please and Thankyou.
