I have nobody to go to raves with.

There are lots of nice underground parties in London, but
all my friends are dicks who either leave early, don't
dance, or are completely unrealiable.

I am a loner.

Yeah, I think that'd be a good idea.

I'd rather go alone, EXPECTING to be alone, then invite some
people and have them leave after half an hour because "there
aren't enough people" (hello? More people come in later!) or
because they "forgot that house party they were meant to go
to."

grrr.

definitely worse..this one time i was supposed to go with
two friends, but just before we were to meet they said
they're going to some fancy club instead...ofcourse, i went
to a gig alone but i was in a bad mood all night coz of
it...therefore from then on i rather go alone. but i never
go alone to a gig when it's out of town/country - that would
suck a bit :)

Heheh....nice to know someone who's had a similar shitty
experience.

You've inspired me...to attend these things alone from now
on. Unless there's a garantee some of 'em will stay.

There have been good experiences, where we've partied all
night long, but as soon as it gets a bit too
"underground"(i.e-no visuals, not many people, grimey venue,
other clubs open) people just fuck off.

"invite some people and have them leave after half an hour

Wtf if everyone did that parties would get nowhere. They
need to learn to tough it out and make it a good situation

If you are alone you can hit on the "female only group"
which consists of aproximately 4 or 5 girls that went
together to the party because all the guys they knew were
assholes as the people you speak of.

i never went to a rave in my life so far...
the first time i went to a bar was like 8 months ago...
the last film i saw in cinema was return of the king...

when i think of it, i think, "i must be a geek". after all,
i spend a lot of time on computers. but actually i don't
know shit about computers coding etc. then i think, "maybe
i'm an otaku then". after all, i am studying japanese. but
actually i don't know a lot about manga and anime either,
and i could live without them. then i think, "am i a total
loser then??". and, em...

i have a similiar kinda problem, i know loads of ppl that
wld go to parties, but none of them is willing to actually
pay money for it (ie everything above £7 out of the
question)
and then again i find myself spending everydamn pound i earn
on gigs, paying up to £30 for gigs i really wanna c

i guess it all comes down to what r yr priorities

i know mine :)

20 nov - interpol
22 nov - kanye west & talib kweli
23 nov - low
24 nov - fennesz & radian

btw, beasties r sold out both standing and seating, fuck, i
didnt expect that for wembley, so quickly
maybe theyll do another date

First rave I went to I was 13/14 and it was in a warehouse
somewhere between here and Manchester. It was good. These
days I am too old to go to 'raves' and spend my time
inhabitng either my local or a trendy middle class bar full
of people I would quite happily decapitate in an area I have
no wish to be in.

the thing is it's nice to share experiences, which is kinda
hard if you're alone. I dunno, I'm not sure raving on your
own would be too fun. But I'll try it next friday at
Electrowerkz (there's some "Dissonance" thing on.)

I go to gigs alone if I know they will be good, otherwise
it's better to have someone with you in case its boring.

Why would you want to go to a rave? Don't they play like
trance and goapsytrance etc.? Sounds gay. LIke with homos
and stuff.

my first serious girlfriend dumped me a week or so after i
left to go to college. we'd dated for a year or so, and she
immediately started dating one of my best friends. so, that
was awkard/sucky.

a couple of months later we went to a 'rave' that pomme was
playing at in tennessee. i rode with the ex and her man/my
friend. i drank a whole lot of jack danniels and beer. on
the way back i puked in her back seat.

in the morning i went out to her car to clean it and there
was no puke anywhere in the car. there was also no puke
anywhere on my clothes except for a small spot on the cuff.

it was a phantom puke.

that's my story about raves.

Well I dunno what you'd call them, since rave is apparently
incorrect.

Basically, events like Planet Mu/Rephlex/Warp parties.

I'm going to Dissonance in Electrowerkz this friday.

i went to a 'rave party' last saturday night. man oh man.. i
had to force myself to get really really drunk because it
was so painful being there. but i coudln't leave because the
friend i went with had to help out with some stuff. but we
got a free open tab though.

but man! the rave kids these days are just retarded. this
one girl was dressed all candy raver style and her walk was
so messed up, probably from too much e, but she looked so
retarded and i kept running into her all night. *cringe*

I like the freedom of expression there! I love the fact
people can wear the most bizzare things, "dance" in the most
ridiculous way imaginable, and nobody cares...there's none
of this trying to fit in or conforming to what's cool crap.

Saying that, the last thing I attended had a bit of a
rudeboy element which was annoying.
