You able to HAVE an argumentation?

Also, you meant Albator or Goldorak?

Yay page 2!

I take offense to the "always" in that sentence, to be quite honest. I've been relatively single for over 3 years, and every gf I've had will most probably admit I do much more than my share. Not even sure any of the girlfriends I've had in these 3 years ever helped me do the dishes after a meal.

So there, that's my POV. I also take care of 3 cats and 2 roommates, heh

The whole point is moot; them 600 records were already dropped off by the time the OP posted about it

Please don't take this the wrong way, but I think you, as well as the OP, are a bit wrong on this one.

(then again, she barely said anything, don't think any of us can really extrapolate on what she meant; perhaps she just fell on that epicly-named thread and had a moment of nostalgia!)


... But I digress. Here's a wall of text as rebuttal:


You seem to have a bleak view of the global rave movement. While the movement suffered major repression and deieied (sp?) in the early 2000s (actual oldschoolers will all readily agree, and I myself mostly lived vicariously through their stories), I've personally seen it rise from its ashes as early as 2008? Maybe 7?

New blood. A slew of it. Most definitely "uneducated" as a whole, but that's a given when you discover something new. And perhaps there was a lack of oldskoolers to teach 'em, too jaded and busy doing k to care?

Still, tons of awesome elements. Fuck, actual candy ravers, a decade after it was "cool".

Also a slew of promoters. Some a bit more capitalistic or less dedicated than others, perhaps, but one would be way dumb to think that the hippie movement didn't have its own share of... Leeches?

I've NEVER personally seen so many free parties. People BUILDING soundsystems. SOO much love for music all around.

To me, that's "rave" culture. The same primordial desire to dance to the beat that makes people gather into deserts, forests, abandoned buildings.

Burning Man. Shambhala. Teknival. Valhalla. Open Mind. St-Jean Basstiste. Warehouse parties. "Legal" venues. Heck, even bar and club nights that extend into loft parties with 100+ attending.

As a median, at least one "rave" party every Friday and Saturday. Sometimes two per night. All-nighters on Thurdays of regular (not-long) weekends, for fuck's sake

The since is alive and kicking. To me, the "ultimate revival". Though perhaps simply "pulsed" into something else.

At this point, though, it's just semantics to me.

Funny, I was at this lil bar night mixing Hardcore and Psy together, and that was a blast! On a Tuesday, no less! Same thing a month ago, Hardcore vs DnB!

you're just jelly ;)

Two certainties in life: death and taxes.

I am, yes, among many other things; dick, brain, pair of lungs, eyes, ears, testicles, etc..

To be quite honest, I can't think of any legal venues that have this "industrial" look he wants anyway. None that can still be rented anyway, though I'm hearing words that some venues could be persuaded to open their doors again, dunno how much stock to put in that though.

Also have a few illegal dream spots where I'd be curious of throwing parties (or rather, help throw), but heh. Obviously I'll share them right now with a guy who barges in here out of nowhere asking for locations without so much as a "please" or "thank you", instead of any of those awesome crews I know who contribute to our scene (to a fault) rather than consume.

Yup. I'm an asshole.

I see somebody who'll integrate real well here

Twilight zone. Me and Blisss agree on something

Hehehe, look who got butthurt real quick.

Glossing over the misguided insults, seems you somehow got the semi-constructive criticism i sent your way. You came back and gave a LITTLE bit more background to your original post (which arguably sounded pretty bait).

(I know a few people who were invited, but none of my contacts appear to have gone to your old-skool trance party on Crescent street. Just felt I needed to point this out )

Raves are STILL illegal. Cops tolerate a few crews and venues, and some manage to pull off very successful renegade events. You wanna pull an all-nighter? Plenty of venues are available. One only needs to check out the [ rave.ca ] calendar or all-nighters on facebook. Y'know, social networking.

I stand by my OP. You post a few lines asking for locations without any background to what you wanna do, on a forum mostly used by trolls. What the fuck did you expect? Promoters to just say: HEY LOOK, HERE'S THIS PLACE I FOUND AND WANT TO EXPLOIT, BY ALL MEANS, USE IT?

...
For the record, I was raving when "old school trance" was still new. You're not the first promoter I've seen looking for an easy way out. Do the legwork. Contact promoters directly. But for fucks sake, DON'T BE BAIT; can't you see how your OP made it look like you're a police officer wanting hints on current rave spots?

Or, maybe, last advice: stay on Crescent, seems it's working out great for you. Why change a winning combo?

My humble 2 cents. Guess they amount to 0 with the new rounding rules, but... Heh.

Thanks for worrying about me, but also for letting me do a post about safe sex!
"Don't be a fool. Wrap your tool!"

I wish. Last time I went to a Planet Breaks event, I ended up with a 32 yo single mom with a meth addiction.

Forever alone

I do believe it did, but I forget how daft you are sometimes.

Hey, thanks for bringing forth a random comment from 3 years ago and allowing me to do some shameless promotion

Old-skool junglists are slowing coming out from longtime hibernating and are joined by a slew of new-skoolers!

A couple successful jams at Belmont and Cabaret UW in the past year, and a proper all-nighter next week!

Gwan be fun times, all-star lineup right thuur

Also, not that i give a crap about labels, but sheesh, I'm as much a raver as you're a DJ, superstwat

Sorry, I won't let the biggest homophobe on here call everyone an homophobe and then make homophobic comments himself.

Might as well put this ad campaign to good use. And post here while I'm still unbanned.

My sentiment exactly.
And I'll be rude, but...




No.
Dunno who "you" or "we" are, but.. If you're serious about throwing an event (sure seems like it'd be your first, too), I'd suggest going to a few ones, first; make your own goddamn research; talk to and perhaps associate with other promoters, get some experience before.

I say this for your sake. Or you'll end up on your ass like so many aspiring promoters.

The scene is stretched enough as it is, imho. Doesn't mean you can't succeed and make a name for yourself (lulz), but you'll have to show more initiative than that.

This forum is for old farts and trolls. Welcome, though.

Narc!

Dunno, but I want to lick

I dunno, wanna elaborate, break it down a bit? Perhaps with a bit of lebanese crack first?

Aww, figured I'd get this laugh just before I leave tonight

You know what they say about opinions, right twat?

But you're feeling celibacy is the next big thing right meow?

Meh. Go to Belmont if you wanna hear dubstep. Though there are still parties.
To be honest, Bassix, Hardtimes et al. still post schtuff sometimes.

Best of luck, it's harsh.

Shackleton <3

Also, this forum really isn't the place to find dubstep events PERIOD, loads of peeps on here hate it, which means the promoters aren't going out of their way to promote on here.

Seems like someone's falling for hate culture himself

made: what a beautiful and fulfilling day

Pour vrai, j'suis d'accord
J'aime les deux même, le premier loop hardstyle et le breakdown rock. J'dropperais la dernière partie et j'gosserais plus avec le premier loop, mais..

Good schtuff, grats Corrupter!


... To stay on topic:

Very cool, nice work :D

You don't get the metaphor?

I think you can't, and that's the point?

And the perfect superstwat DJ to boot!
<-- This asshole is in too! Save me some bath salts Nathan

Why did I think you would've somehow snapped back into a semblance of reality instead of that distorted shit you seem to live in.

Sigh.

I resent that, I'm not that kinda girl either

No, YOU turned it into a trollfest. A pretty unfunny one at that, imho.

I'd rather joke about your joke of a life, to be honest.

So you can turn them into a trollfest? No thanks.
Go discuss this with your friend Wendall, I'm sure his input will be worthwhile.

Not sure how you should react? Is that why you're polling people's opinions?

I dunno twat, I thought YOU started this trolling convo, thought my input was pretty apt?

Apparently he does. 23 gigs last month, that's... Almost like a job. I hope he saved the newspaper articles so he can be reminded he was once voted MTL's best DJ.

(by one of MTL's all-time best DJs, imho.)

I'm worried that this guy is allowed to own a gun. Sigh.

Back at it again, huh twat? Still haven't found a life outside of two gigs a month?
