MrDuke Posted July 13, 2016 There are quite a few people on this forum who would remember nights like these,I still have fond memories of the Green Ant and Every Picture Tell's A Story parties in Melbourne back in the mid nineties and the early Earthcores were rockin before Spiro pulled a Christopher Skase. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Strontium Dawg Posted July 14, 2016 I raved in Sydney from late 91 through to around 2000, and still go to the very occasional catch up event. Srh do family friendly day events in Sydney park around once a year, they're good fun for those of us who find it hard to commit to a full on night. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
obtuse Posted July 14, 2016 (edited) i remember the early mid 90's bush doofs in Tasmania. wow!!!! back in the day when no one cared who the dj was, and they were off in some tent somewhere. it was all about the music and the experience.

sagiXsagi Posted July 16, 2016 the word raver hit a soft spot. long time no rave... Quote when no one cared who the dj was I am still like that I love old-school rave music and I have been listening to it since 92 or something, but I didnt attend lots of raves in the old days, I was too young at first, then when I was a bit older the scene in the town died and I was starting to listen to other stuffs too, like greek punk rock. my best raving days where definately 2002 berlin, where I attended the most and best gabba techno and dum n base parties I could ever imagine ALWAYS LOVE BERLIN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stonewolf Posted July 17, 2016 When does this 'too old to rave' phenomenon hit? I'm turning 30 and the only thing that I can see putting me off is looking visibly older, out of place. It's purely psychological. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strontium Dawg Posted July 17, 2016 You're never too old to rave. I went to a party a few months ago and threw down pretty well. I'm "considerably" older than you stonewolf...the music just takes you. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThunderIdeal Posted July 17, 2016 Hb said too old to "doof properly", I dont think he meant he's incapable of having a stomp. probably something along the lines of fatigue from the driving, days and nights of lost or poor sleep, anxiety at disturbing stylistic/behavioural trends in the scene, tennis elbow from telling youngins to get off his damn lawn, expense replacing lost dentures, etc 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

toby Posted July 18, 2016 Not exactly rave though, more like techno which is good because that's what I once liked about rave.. Can't bring myself to go out and hear happy hard, even though it'd probably be loads of fun 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
