If anyone has a crack for this CD, you'd be the bomb.  I think if I 
remember correctly, PWA or someone put out a crack for it, but I haven't 
been able to find it anywhere...  It's got 2,100 fonts, including that 
Chemical Bros. (Sho) font, so someone pleez pleez pleez get it... <beg>

Hi all, it's Nancy here reporting from my friend Josh's account on the 
events of Friday night.  Only Friday night, because the rest of the 
weekend was spent recuperating! ;)  Lazy days drenched in sunshine are a 
great antitode to outrageous partying... 

Friday night - One Track Mind
We headed out to this little, Mission district, $5 party after hearing 
the depressing news about Meridian.  None of us felt like driving over an 
hour to spend a night at the beach - and from what I heard from friends 
later, that was a good thing!  Too bad about all the mishaps of the night 
for Meridian.  Hopefully next time the space will be secure and the party 
will go off!

So we faced the prospects of Fusion (spare $20, anyone?), Out-a-Sight (no 
directions at 11PM - thought this was a guaranteed weekly?), Nikita (for 
the clubby thang - and of course, Derrick May), or the small unknown, One 
Track Mind.

$5 seemed a safe gamble, and I'm always curious to check out a new 
party.  By midnight we had found the industrial space in a south Mission 
area.  Good location for a medium-size party!!  (Heads up, F&F!!).  
Oblong warehouse that could fit several hundred people.  Unfortunately 
for One Track Mind, only about 100 had ventured to their party.  

I was impressed with what they had furnished for just five bucks.  A 
large screen flashed graphics, decent sound system, free water flowed, 
in-and-out privileges, and a chill area with couches and some artwork 
(somebody's living space, maybe?).

Jon Santos (the biggest name in the line-up) was spinning.  Billed 
"Detroit Techno and Chicago House" night, hardcore crashed through the 
air, sounding much like dueling blenders.  Not my taste.  Some people 
tried to dance, but the feeling wasn't there.  The chill area - featuring 
"improvisational" ambient - wasn't any more musically inviting.  We (minus 
KaySEE, who opted for a good conversation and a mellow night) wanted to 
GO OFF, and headed out to 1015 to hopefully catch the legend, Derrick May.

Nikita

The Club - unbelievable sound system pounding, blinding lazer overkill, 
stocked bars pouring, club crowd preening.  Nikita is like sensory overload 
after any rave.  I observed the suburban crowd with the women in heels 
and the drunk men and grew petulant - why do THEY get the killer space 
and sound and lights and the underground has to scrounge?  We hide out in 
dirty warehouses and get excited over a simple lazer, while in clubland 
overstuffed couches and openair balconies and amazing light shows are 
wasted on the cruisers.

The weird thing about Nikita is, after 2AM it's a totally different 
experience.  Until the bars close, you have your mainstream crowd (and 
the crowd at Nikita gets more mainstream every week - two months ago I 
swear it was a different scene).  But after 2, the real dancers come out, 
getting down to the music and not at all interested in clubby attitude. By 
5AM, it's just the groovers, with everyone there absorbed in the 
same feeling.  At that moment, the connection is close to the rave 
experience.  The music has transported us to the same level, creating the 
collective experience that is at the heart of the best rave experiences.  
But I'm getting ahead of myself.

First things first - Derrick May is THE MAN!! See him the next time he is 
in town, because this is one legend who deserves it.  I was worried that 
he'd be too old-school, that his legendary status derived from his place 
as an originator of techno dance, rather than any current relevance.  But 
this guy can still rock the house!!  His fifteen years of spinning was 
reflected in an arsenal of records - his set weaved everything from 
pophouse to trance to hardcore techno and back, throwing in bits and 
fragments of sounds and voice and samples to create a totally danceable 
mishmash of sound.  He spun incredibly for two-and-a-half hours.

Simon came on after, spinning better than he has for quite a while.  Two 
hours of throbbing trance that held the crowd like a spell.  My favorite 
kind of dance music. :) :)  Many people stayed until the end came at dawn.  
(And probably, like us, had to face an hour delay on the Bridge).  But we 
did get to see the sun break through the clouds over the bay in the 
morning - intensely beautiful.

One thing: I was handed an invite to get in free next week, as was my 
friend Marnie.  On it (I don't have it in front of me), it said something 
like, "you are invited because of your happy smile.  We want positivity 
only!"  and made me think that the people throwing Nikita want the 
dancelovers and the good vibe to come.  I suddenly saw them bummed out by 
the mainstreaming of their club (although they probably don't mind 
the massive dollars generated!), and trying to get another sort of crowd to come to their party.  ??  

The club elements can be a downer, but as I was saying earlier, after 
the drinkers leave, and with a good dj, 1015 has potential.  During Simon's 
set I felt close to everyone in that room, and although funny hats and 
presents would have felt inappropriate, the connection that heartfelt 
dance brings was starting.  It was not the same total acceptance the rave 
atmosphere sometimes brings, but Friday night I realized that the venue 
or the legality or the fact of "club vs. rave" becomes immaterial.  We 
can bond through dance, regardless of location or promoter or purist ideals.

When I began raving I would go to any party, just 'cause it was a 
"rave."  I thought the fact that it was a rave was enough to bring the 
community and the soul-lifting experience of dance.  As I've gotten more 
into it, I've realized that the music creates the experience.  At One 
Track Mind, "bad" music created a mediocre vibe.  At the club, 
unbelievable sound united everyone into a single groove.  

I often wonder what's at the origin - people or the music?  Is a good crowd enough to 
generate a feeling or is good music the catalyst to bring the people 
together into a shared experience?  "Raving" (meaning, to me, a certain 
experience) takes the people, too - sharing their love and openness and 
positivity.  The crowd is critical to the highest experience.  But dance 
is universal, perhaps creating the connection that allows people to then 
open up, and create an even higher level of connection.

I just know that now I choose parties (whether rave or club) based on the 
music, because I know the experience will follow...

This post is long enough!  Good-bye everyone - have a beautiful, short, 
3-day workweek (isn't it wonderful?!)

Love, Nancy

Damn! I had a great time this weekend..Mars set at Space Teddy was awesome.
I think I left my body on that one..Sunset boat party.. My first one, only
due to having to get up at 4:30am for work on Monday. This was great, I've
been on many boats, ships and what not, but this was great.  I was just
having a hard time choosing what deck to stay on..Well I'm sooo tired right
now, got to bed at 1:30 and up at 4:30 so I think it's time to close my
eyes and take a snooze before I actually have to do work here.


And to think I almost didn't go out this weekend.

HI!!  Happy HOT Monday to Everyone.  Hope your weekend was swell!

For the time being, I've switch back to my old confusing Quickmail Email Address (mark_camp*@quickmail.apple.com) because Claris Emailer SUCKS!  Apple is in the proccess of loosing Quickmail and switching over to Claris Emailer and while they are doing this, the Emailer servers keep going caputz (SP?).  And I never receive any messages.  

SO, once again, if anyone has tried sending me anything over the past coupla days, I didnt receive it. Please send it to: 

mark_camp*@quickmail.apple.com.

Thanxs!! This concludes my Monday Morning Grip Session

Looking Forward to the FOUR DAY WEEKEND!!!!,


-M

If anyone's interested I have a Tascam 48 Analog 8 track tape deck(DBX) 
and a large 4' x 3' Tascam 24 input ( 2 phono even ) 8 bus out mixer that
I'd like to sell. I'm looking to get $1500 for the deck and $1000 for the 
mixer. These are very nice units with boxes ( I can help deliver ), 
manuals and look like new ie very few if any blimishes... the deck has 
less than 200 hours use so the heads are like new.... The mixer is a full
studio mixer with meter bridge, lots of inputs & outputs etc but is too
large for small time live use ( unless you are the Orb )....

I'm only selling these because I do only electronic stuff that uses MIDI
and so I just don't use their capabilities - so I'm looking to simplify
my studio....

E-mail me if you have any interest.

Mike

Hi all- I haven't posted in days because I don't really have a place and 
I've been couch surfing for about two weeks now- I really really really 
missed the vibe I get from all of you- wow, do I ever need some positive 
energy sent my way!!!!  I'm stressed and broke, but I've still got a 
smile on my face and I know that I'll make it- I just didn't want any of 
you to think I fell off the face of the earth...  Hopefully I'll make it 
to a party soon.

Love,
jessica

Well, well, well....


I really hope you all can handle these next 3 or 4 days...

I had fun in the woods, however, the Harmony party "pulled" me out of my
outback contemplation to do some serious  dancing...

So much for a "raveless weekend"....

Had fun, shared smiles, did some serious damage to the beach (dancing my own
pit, one could say) and can't wait till Wendsday...

-C/U Wensday night.

-Pacbowl Thursday (DJ Demigod - Gabber/Hardcore)

-Light from Friday till Sunday

Talk about a Full Plate!!!


"dance with me..."

Hey Everyone.

If you're near the Cats Bar tonight in SF (or if you're not) come check out a super cool band called Soulstice.  I've had the pleasure of listening to them every day for the past two weeks (thanks to my roommate, the man, Mei-Lwun Yee) who does some kick-ass scratching to live hop-hop-funk-acid jazz-rap and even some jungle beats with a lovely female singa.

Show starts at 10 or 9 or something like that.  So come on out, I'll by you a drink!  Really, I will!

Fo mo info, and a little sampling of the Soulstice sound,  call the BCE info line @ 415 607 2290

peace,
-M

Oh Jeez,
I didn't realize it was this Dave.  The steamboat was the tip off.  
I got the privledge of meeting him at his beautiful berkeley home once 
back in '93 after a Basics party at the Armory.

Although I never got to really know him, I could tell the instant I met 
him what a special and wonderful person he was.  I was always glad to see 
him with his cute little hat and glitter around his smiling eyes.  

My thoughts are with him and all who knew him.

love,
Amy

I have a great, albeit second-hand, story about Nancy and Derrick May.  
Another friend of mine witnessed the following interaction between Nancy 
and Derrick May.  (Nancy, I hope I don't embarrass you, but this story is 
too cute to pass up!!)  Anyway, my friend sees Nancy go up to Derrick May 
before he starts to spin and starts talking to him.  Of course, he is 
very curious as to the interaction that has occured, so he asks Nancy 
what they talked about.  Nancy replies, "Oh I just told him to really go 
off and show us what a bad-ass he really is!"  I can just see her doing 
this!!  My friend thought it was pretty cool because then Derrick May 
would know that he was appreciated out here in SF.  So, if his set had 
even a bit more pizzazz then usual, maybe it was due to your fellow 
sfraver!!

as it was
only $5. Great evening/night of open air dancing right on the

I think it's gonna be once a month.
Was anyone else there ?

Since, I just purchased my new Rane MP22 mixer, I no longer have a need for
my old one. It is a Gemini PMX2000. I purchased it for $300 over two years

graphic eq for each channel, and 2 mic inputs ( for whatever use that is?).

Hi!

I'm posting this for a friend who doesn't have email access.

He's just moved into a new appartment where his decks are set up in really
close quarters.  These speakers are _way_ too big to have set up 1 foot
away from your ears, so he's looking to get into something smaller (but
doesn't that go against the natural evolution of things?)

Anyhow here's what he's got.  If you're interested, either email me or give
him a call at 759-5604.  His name is Dave.  He's a good guy.  Call -- it'll
be fun!

HI!!! I'm Anastazia5 (creator/editor of a Dallas-based rave newsletter called
SWELL). I will be making a two week trip to San Fran. & L.A. in August in
order to take a break from this ultra-conservative area. I was wondering if
you guys could give me a little scene-related info about the following:

*A few "quality" promoter names/groups:)
*Record shops--especially those with a large selection of Trance/GOA...Dallas
is TOTALLY into the Progressive House/Funky Breaks stuff, so it's harder than
hell to find the records I wanna play here. I'll be bringing an extra, empty
suitcase just to fill up with records:)
*Are there age limits on parties? Dallas usually has a 17+ limit, in the
hopes of avoiding a party-bust by "Bobby Joe the Arrogent Hick Cop"
*Any primo clothing stores...Dallas has ONE (believe it or not) called Moda
that carries a lot of the Mondorama line:)
*I have organized a Sunday night raver-coffee/chat session here in D. Do you
guys have any specific meeting place/time? I'd love to meet some of you
during my trip:)

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Take Care of Yourself and of Others!!!!!

had a pretty good time last night. met blackadder and shawna for the first
time. got reintroduced to john (burger king) and reintroduced myself to tim
(knucklehead). i now also know who reagan is, even if we weren't introduced..
the weather was absolutely perfect for a boat cruise. nice and warm, but the
bay kept the temperature down to a perfect level.. dancing downstairs, they
had the side doors open and you could look out and see the water rushing by,
as well as feel the cooling breeze. hmmm.. now why can't warehouse parties
have air conditioning like that?
heard some good jungle, and andrew spun a nice ambient/jungle set that was
beautiful to listen to, although very difficult to dance to. however
(warning: house music rant ahead), my evening could have been much better
had there not been so much house music. the music sounded ok if you were
right between the speakers, but if you were back further all you got was a
muddle whoompy bass sound. more treble would have made it much more
enjoyable. i also was unfortunate enough to hear the worst house song i have
ever heard. it had a cheezy bass line and vocals that sounded like they came
straight out of a 2-unlimited rap. ugh!

and on another note: when i was in canada, the funky techno tribe came out
to toronto on tour or something and put on a party with Dose. my question
is: why do no outside production companies from other cities come to SF and
help put on parties?

With much anticipation, we (a group of 7) set off to got to the party.  I 
had been nursing myself back to health from my second cold in two weeks.  
This one hit me out of the blue, but I refused to let it interfere with 
going to the boat party.  There are too few wonderful parties, that I 
didn't want to miss this one.  A little mind over matter goes a long ways....

ONE COMPLAINT:  It ended to soon :(  I was just not ready for it to end 
when it did.  Great time for punctuality, we docked at 11:01 p.m.  I was 
hoping that they would go a bit later.  The time flew by.  Next time, I 
hope it can be a bit longer.  But it was still wonderful, so this is a 
mild complaint.

I got to see some people who I hadn't seen for quite awhile (Shawna, 
Reagan, Black Adder, SDream, Marty) and met a few new people (SDream's 
friend, Julie and sfraver Troy Sheets).  I looked for more sfravers, 
assuming they were there, but didn't find any.  

I spent the entire time running from deck to deck to see the amazing 
views:  sunset underneath the Golden Gate, moon rise over the east bay, 
full moon behind a beautifully lit City, moon light reflecting off of the 
water, clear skies, and more.  

This was the "hang out and bond with your friends" party, which I did 
enforce. It was nice spending some quality time with the people that help 
create the vibe.  Reinforce that love of the scene, and get to know 
people's wonderful individuality. It just reminds me that "the rave" is a 
combination of many things, people being what makes it all happen!!  I 
also appreciated the fact that in this vast world there exists a place 
for my silly, friendly side to show itself.  It is a struggle to keep it 
couped up, but the "regular" world just isn't ready for it in many ways.  
People always have their guard up too much, and spend too much time 
worrying about appearances and acting "grown-up".  It's nice to step into 
that "temoporary autonomous zone" for a bit, and be able to express an 
important part of yourself.  It refreshes my love of living which is easy 
to forget and difficult to remember.


The music didn't move my relaxed body too 
much, but it was beautiful to listen to.  Even heard a Tangerine Dream 
track in there.  My body won't move if the music is (I believe) below 130 
bpm.  I need stuff from Progressive House and on.  Trance rules, 
especially acid trance!  But, this was a different mood and people did 
seem to enjoy themselves.  The "experimental" cabin got in some good 
jungle licks and ambient grooves and the main cabin was pretty much pure 
house from what I remember.

I enjoy listening to house, but when I put my body out on the dance 
floor, I didn't feel the familiar grab.  Usually, I feel this contagious 
sensation under my skin which sends electric pulses to my limbs and makes 
them flail wildly.  Just didn't get there this time, but that was okay.  
I'll just have to feed this little dancing addiction of mine later!

Smooth move Ex-lax aka #1 dumb move of the evening:

I brought my camera and proceeded to take pictures of the party.  Then my 
camera ran out of film.  I had another role in my back pack, but was too 
lazy to go down to the bottom cabin and get it.  Later on, as the sun is 
setting, and we are going under the Golden Gate bridge, I grab my camera 
and take (what I thought) would be some excellent pictures of Jon and 
myself underneath the bridge.  After I left the party, it dawned on me 
that those pictures had occured after I ran out of film, and before I had 
re-loaded the film.  So, I guess those pictures will only be etched in my 
memory.  Can you just say airhead?

signing off,
KaySEE

p.s.  I hope to see some of the pictures that people took.

              ****Shit, goddamn, get off your ass and jam****

	This non-rave related, might be considered blatant self-promotion
	as well, and is actually commercial spam. 
	This said, you can go on, you may find a good deal. :)
	
	My company changed its product line, and wants to get rid of
	a few leftover products: we have a clearance list where you
	can find Unix software/books for half the usual street price.
	Have a look at 
http://www.softway.com/america/prices.htm

	No need to mention my name when ordering, I don't have anything 
	to do with the sales department. :)

I respectfully disagree.  His set left me uninspired.  He may be
"the man"... but not on this night, not in my opinion.  You should 
still check him out though if you never have -- his historical
significance warrants as much.  Rok.

I heard this was supposed to happen in Sacramento.  I was even given the
lowdown on the space.  I went around midnight to see if anyone was there
setting up, cuz that is what time it was supposed to start.  No trace of
anyone, except two shady characters in a pick-up who, when I inquired if
they knew anything about a full moon party said, "full moon party?....I'm up
for a party....where is it supposed to be."   I said, "that's what I'm
trying to figure out"   Then the same guy who just asked me where it was
supposed to be said, "can I get a ride with you, I know where it is."  So I
said, "where."  To which he responded, "right over there up the road"

I drove away without another word.  

At about 12:30 am the directions were still not posted, so......

Did it happen?

Was if big fun? 

What's the story?

Erm, there were some logistical problems (it was to have started at 1am),
but it did happen, albeit not until about 4 or 4:30 am. It was a meadow
somewhere just outside Sacramento, near a bog, which meant thousands of
mosquitos. I played first, but couldn't hardly spin for the mosquito bites
(I counted about 50 this morning - never would've thought they could suck
through two shirts! At least they don't itch much). I had to leave at 5:30
to go back to SF for work, so I don't know how long it lasted. There were
about 30-50 people there when I left.

The moon was utterly exquisite.

The moon was indeed magnificent!  It was said to be at it's fullest at
8:59pm, so I went onto the balcony of the apartment where I live to see.
Incredibly bright.  I opened myself up to receive the energy the beautiful,
silver-white orb was radiating, and perceived a cool (as in temperature)
and substantial energy, unlike anything I've felt before.  It was medium in
intensity.  I let my energy flow with it for a moment, then came back to
myself, breathed deeply, smiled, sighed, and returned indoors.

Yours in lunacy,

>love and positive energy.  Anyone got some to spare?

I'm having an amazing week full of love and light, and even though I've
never met sister Karen, I can empathize with "overwhelmingly bad times".

Hang on, sister.

"Wake now, discover that you are the sun that the morning brings!"

LOVE and HUGS to you!!!!!

Woah, I was about to give her e-mail address to the list, but maybe it's
better to do it this way: if you'd like to send her a message, and don't
have her e-mail addr., let me know, and I'll send it to ya private-like.
OK?

Peace,

Just a quick note on my *Harmony* experience.

I had a great time while it lasted; I had to split early to go to
an engagement party for my brother in Salinas.  Left at about 5:10 pm.

The weather was perfect, the music was just getting good and the vibe just 
starting to happen for me and then I had to go...  :(

Highlights (Good AND Bad)

* The great location/ The hellish trek to bring equipment down to the beach.
* The perfect weather
* The great views- Ocean spray, Natural arch, Naked people...
* The shitty incident with the pit-bull.  Fucked up, man!
* The constant hissing of nitrous tanks.
* Getting to meet John (short hair, blue shorts and white t-shirt, extremely 
friendly), Rob & Jenny (met them at wrong beach.  got to harmony together.  
introduced themselves right away), and Charlie (holder of the sacred 
sunflower), also the girl whose name I don't remember that had the same 
Airwalks as me.  Met her with Charlie? when we were trying to get the 
generator going. Did I get all your names right?  You were the only ones who 
cared enough to act friendly toward me and my wife Patty.  It was a true 
*pleasure* to meet you.  What are your i.d's on the list? So I can match the 
faces with who you are on the list?

Me? I was the half asian, half mexican dude, about 5'8" with the red and 
black beanie that had a yellow happy face on it.  MOst of the time I was 
dancing on the rock in front of the arch.

Wish I could have gotten a laminate.  Damn.  maybe next time.  C'mon... 
people. be a little friendlier.

Despite my pissy mood right now, I had a pretty good time on Saturday.

It was great fun, and I'm glad we got to share it!  Didn't meet as many new
faces as I'd like to have, but sometimes a returned smile is all I need :)
There were more of you I knew than I even got to say hi to, but that's the
way it is with families, eh?  Looking forward to the next wonderful
experience!

Love,

Eric

Greetings,

I'm sitting here in Sedona,  Az.    Just woke up to a beautiful morning and
some of the most incredible sights of beuatiful red mountains,   and
surrounding countryside.    I've taken some pictures and will soon have them
up on my WEB site.    So far,  I've been able to get on-line,  thanx to
Kinko's Courticy phones.

I already miss dancing,  but I got a fair amount of dancing in San Diego,
although the rave scene is quite a lot smaller,  but LA isn't that far away.

Anyway,  please keep the vibe alive until I get back and have phun for me
while I'm gone.

Cheers
The Crunchman

Just wanna thank everyone who sent me info regarding the SF and L.A. scenes,

more excited about jetting out this hell-hole for 2 weeks now:) Actually,
Dallas isn't THAT bad...hell, we are lucky to even HAVE a scene in this
state, considering the fact that we have to fight an on-going battle against
the conservatism that surrounds us daily. Gotta jet--trying to update the
on-line D-Raves section and add some LIFE to this city! I will probably
e-mail some of you again once I know exactly when I'm heading your way:) Take
Care!!!!

Hi, everyone!  (It's Nancy).  I haven't seen anyone posting about Gateway's 
upcoming camping trip in the Sierras!!  This sounds beautiful - I hope 
people are going because Josh and I will definitely be there.  I tragically 
missed Tribal Future (and I'm still pouting).  But the wilderness is calling out 
to me...I swore to myself I would commune with nature this summer (beyond 
exploring the trees on campus!).

Fourth of July in a small town, tripping on the natives and the culture.  
It's amazing that within the borders of our state you can travel to so 
many different worlds.  I think Grass Valley, CA will be a far cry from my little hometown of Los 
Angeles.  And after visiting the folks we're heading up the mountain on 
Saturday for Gateway...

Let this be a plea to everyone to consider camping this looong week-end.  
I want to see happy faces up there!

Love, Nancy

Amen! You are so correct. This is one beautifull state. There is so much
to see, so much to do, and so many people to meet.

just an amazing party.

surrounded by nature in all directions, with the sound starting around 3 
am we were an island in the middle of nowhere - celebrating the full moon 
overhead beaming us with lite energy. that morning dj fell into a groove 
with awsome house with just enough acid undertones to make this trance 
head dance right up to the last record. thanks gateway for an incredible 
morning.

also much appreciation to brian for taking me, to larry ching for the 
bannanna, and everyone else who gathered there.

energy,
tom

Thanks for your replies to my discussion on Gays at Raves. I have 
been having a blast recently and haven't had much time to respond but 
there were a few that really caught my eye....my whole idea for the 
gays at raves discussion was not for the reason of being able to 
find bed fellows. If I want to go out for sex there are any number of 
clubs or bars I could go to.

What I am talking about is merely finding more gay people who enjoy 
the rave scene as much as everyone else. Everyone is entitled to feel 
like they  belong and if you feel like you are the only gay person 
then no matter how good the music and vibe you are not going to have 
as good a time as you might.

Is it not a human trait to seek out others who are alike?
Would you enjoy the rave as much if you didn't find others with your interests?
Even though you don't go looking for bed fellows isn't it nice to know that
there is always that chance that you may find a partner with the shared
enjoyment of the rave culture?

I love the openess of raves and the fact that it is so enjoyable to 
make new friends without thinking they are trying to pick you up or 
that they are presuming that you are trying to pick them up. I have 
met some of the coolest, nicest and most loving people in this 
environment. It would be way cool if there were more gays at raves 
too. Thats all.

Thanks for all your replies, keep them coming.

Lots of love


David

I will be at the Gateway weekend party. If Tribal Future was anything 
to go by then this will be another weekend to remember. Nearly my 
whole crew will be there, the soon to be wed Keith & Pip, my Brother 
Matthew with the constant smile, Mark, Gary and Kevin to name but a 
few. We will be indulging ourselves in the pleasures of new friends, 
continuing the journey with old ones and lots of circles of love. And 
who knows what else.

Gotta love those four day weekends.


Dave.

 Right around 3PM I was driving around looking for an all-night store that
had insect repellent. I finally ask for directions from the clerk at a 24hour
porno store ( nice guy! ). Someone bought some too, so we ended up with plently.

 Nice small but very friendly crowd - many folks from Tahoe and Sacramento? 
About 30 folks. Intimate

 I'm still tired from it, after sleeping almost 6 hours today. Maybe I'll post
a longer , more personal review later, or just let this one stand. 

 Good night again ...

Great reply David! 
 
How are you?  ..and the gang?  I hear your brother met Jess on Friday.  She
loved your place. 
 
How did you like the Gay Pride Parade?  Any wild after parties?  I had a
great time... hot as hell, though.  Renaud, Me, Jess and Jess' mother
celebrated a special day for Jess' mother who is gay.  Also thought of my
gay friends back in DC and here in San Francisco, you included.   
 
Are you going to ComeUnity Wednesday?  Seems like everybody is going.

This is tangentially related to Karen's troubles, only because I was
thinking about it this weekend.

I only know of two national, "underground communities", those being
DeadHeads and Radical Faeries.  No matter where you go in the U.S., you can
always find them, and they will always put you up for the night, find
someone who might be able to help you with a bigger problem, etc.  Its a
comforting and amazing thing to have, especially for people who have lost
their "natural" support network, for one reason or another.

So when I see things like all the posts offering Karen Hardie words of
encouragement and hope (and all the other things, like people on the list
getting jobs, flats, sharing rides) I am FULL OF GLEE that now I know of a
third underground community.

And not to take anything way from Karen, my legal sweatshop sister in arms,
whatever it is, I am glad that all the kind thoughts and words are helping
you through.  Sometimes it ain't much, but yet, sometimes a kind word is
all I need to get me through.

I don't have a great quote or anything, but I hope you find the strength
and courage to pull through.  At least for me, whenever I have had to
struggle through major, nasty shit, I have come out on the other side a
better person.

enough of my senseless ramblings.....

"That which does not kill us, makes us stronger" - Nietsche

For a complacent pessimist such as myself, this helps--though it doesn't
seem as comforting as they way arkay put it.

Hello all you ravers out there.  Well I am finally going to be getting out
of Santa Cruz, not that this is really a great thing, but I am sure that
the bay area will provide me with more than enough to do.  I have to leave
because I have a new job in Burlingame and cannot afford the commute as it
destroys my car and the gas is really expensive.  So here is the deal. I
can pay up to $600.00/month for a place.  I really am shooting for a place
that I really like (safe, W/D, REALLY FUN PEOPLE, and responsible too,
etc.) over a cheep place.  So if any one needs a house/apartment/flat mate
please let me know.  You can e-mail me at ecoman@megabios.com or to
darwin.ucsc.edu.  BTW I'm 23 year male, long brown hair, vegitarian, N/S,
into molecular biology (this is what I do at a  biotech company)  And I
need to move in ASAP, but my place in Santa Cruz will kick me out at the
end of the month (this is when we gave them our month's notice).  Well
thanks everyone.  Love and hugs.

 Subject:Why Go To Burning Man? [Somewhat Rave Related][longish]

 While I was at Getway's Blue Moon on Monday morning, I did some thinking
about personal issues. One of the things I concluded was that I shouldn't 
go to Burning Man after all. ( Even though I've already bought two 
admissions ). Reasons are:

1. I don't like camping anyway. I never was someone who looked forward to 
   or initiated any camping trips. I have attended some as part of a 
   group, and enjoyed them. But my natural instinct is to keep the heck 
   out of nature.

    Strangley enough, I make exceptions for raves on the beach. I think this
   may have to do wih growing up in Hawaii and enjoying the ocean. Also,
   most beach raves are , at the most , 2 hours from home, while most
   campout raves are multi-day and far away.

1.a  A new thought - maybe, since I grew up in a humid , life-abundant
   enviroment, the harshness and sterility desert may be an especially 
   scaret environment to me. However , I'm at the age (41) where I've
   already had my share of initiatory/face-your-fear experiences - so
   why do I need another one?
 
2. Since I don't normally camp, I have no camping gear except for a 
   sleeping bag. No tent, stove, compass, etc. All would have to be bought
   or rented. 

3. Uncreativity. I get the idea that Burning Man participants should be
   part of a group working on a creative project for display to the other
   attendees of Burning Man. So far, I have not come up with any project
   except little personal things that no one else would understand or 
   appreciate. 

     I haven't gotten any fresh information about the projects that
   other SFRaves are working on to present at BM - what's planned/in
   planning? Maybe if I was part of a "crew" , I'd be more motivated.

4. Time. Part of me feels that the large chunk of time I'd be taking 
   to attend Burning Man would be better applied to upgrading my job
   skills, as I do want to leave the company I'm working for now ( and
   I'm typing this at work too! ). Maybe it's time to make some
   sacrifices to achieve the goal of improve hirablitiy.

 Whew! Sorry for all the verbiage! Well, if anyone could give me some
suggestions one way or another ( Go To BM/Don't Go To BM ), I'd
appreciate it. Since this topic is only vaguely rave-related ( I know that
at least one crew is going to hold a rave at BM ) , please email me with
your suggestions -

 OOps! here comes the boss!

Dear Gateway & SFRaves;

	I alluded to some neagtive things about Gateway Systems a while back, 
that weren't very complimentary, and I just wanted to say that I was wrong, and 
that I'm sorry. Being a person in my position, it's difficult sometime to see 
the truth when I get so much conflicting information from so many unreliable & 
malicious people.

Peace

Dear All;

	I got up late; what else is new and missed the parade; however I did end 
up driving around the Castro for my frist Gay Day. I've never before seen such 
community anywhere I've been so far on the planet; and yet I didn't feel like an 
outsider; I felt welcome and accepted. I love you all from a place of my own 
fear, and enevy your freedom.

THX-1138,

There is nothing said by the statement about that which does kill us--i.e., 
you don't necesarily disagree with him (at least not in this context.)

Hey there!  Me and a buddy are trippin' up to Portland, Oregon, for the
Fourth of July (7-4-96).  We were hoping to hear about some gatherings
before we left. If anybody out there in WEB-land knows of some really
positive-vibe places, please let us know.  We don't do that dark thing at
all!  Nope, we just like the Love-vibe.  You can drop a line via the SFRaves
or send direct e-mail.  Thanks so much.  Godbless...

Larry, 

There is no raver rule that says you MUST go to Burning Man.  There are 
simply some people out there who do not like camping and the lack of 
modern conveniences.  That doesn't make you a pariah, by any means. 

If I were in your shoes, I would just do what I want to do. What makes 
you happy.  There is no sense in attending an event just cause everyone 
else is.  You will probably not have a good time, because not only is it 
outdoors, but the weather can be rather extreme out there.  

Do what you feel is best for YOU. No one knows that better than yourself.

love,              
Amy                 (check my new sig!  I had to say bye to 
                                 Bill the Cat!)

I might go to Gateway, but the only day I can go is Saturday. Any help

Hi Brian -

 Re Burning Man - try http://www.istorm.com/burningman 

 be prepared to wait - their graphics are big and take a long time to download
to your computer. 

 Also - hotline number with touch-tone info menu (415)-985-7471. There is 
registration info there , and other info.

Yeah, even though I'm a former boy scout turned drug scout, I don't much 
care for camping either. Add to the fact that I'm addicted to cafinee and 
Burning Man could become an ugly detox situation, even so I'm going. 

There aren't that many rites of passage for white people in america. You 
have your high school experience, your driver's licence at 16, TJ at 18, 
beer from 7-11 on your 21st birthday, your first drug deal, senior prom,  
graduation,  but no real growing experiences like taking peyote from your 
den leader and establishing a relationship with your god.  

I'm fortunate that I live in a city where on almost any night of the week 
I can go out and have a meaningful experience on the dancefloor with 
like-minded people. That's what it means to be a local. 

Part of the appeal of Burning Man, for me at least, is the quest. I've 
all these goals that I've set for myself, like growing dreadlocks or 
working for George Lucas, and part of the fun is working to make that 
happen. Right now I'm on a quest to find which of my friends really do 
have their shit together, a quest for sleaping bags & tents to borrow, a 
quest to find someone to sit in for me on that first day of class that I 
plan to be spending roasting in a Disneyland for weirdos.    

I know so many people that are going. Santa Cruz people, City people, 
High School people, people who are spinning, Dorm people, people who 
went last year, State people. At the moment I'm still a student person, I 
go to The State and as a result have far to much free time on my hands. 2 
years from now I'll probablly be a real person with real obligations who 
woun't be able to afford dropping everything to go play make believe for 
4 some days. I may not even be a raver 2 years from now, but for now I'm 
gonna rage.

hey lope,

I'm sure there's more than one song out that says "the house of god".. 
but one song i have on a cd comp. called Techno Truth Vol. 1 (Moonshine,
1992) might be the one you're looking for.  It is by DHS called "House of
God"  I believe I saw the vinyl at Reckless Records a few months ago.  
if you're looking for the cd comp. try any tower records or streetlight.

sm:)in' sun



the house of god..
i am excited..
the house of god..
fifty dollars or more

you gotta believe in something
why not believe in me?

Just wanna thank everyone who sent me info regarding the SF and L.A. scenes,
shops, etc.!  I received TONS of postive e-mail from you guys, and I'm even
more excited about jetting out this hell-hole for 2 weeks now:) Actually,
Dallas isn't THAT bad...hell, we are lucky to even HAVE a scene in this
state, considering the fact that we have to fight an on-going battle against
the conservatism that surrounds us daily. Gotta jet--trying to update the
on-line D-Raves section and add some LIFE to this city! I will probably
e-mail some of you again once I know exactly when I'm heading your way:) Take
Care!!!!

Sending Divine-Ultra-Mint-Full-of-Love-Positive-Groovilicious Vibes Your Way,

The Top 15 Problems Encountered Along the Olympic Torch Route
--------------------------------------------------------------
15) Forward progress hampered by slow moving white Bronco.
14) Torch commandeered in Waco by over-zealous ATF agents.
13) One *really* pissed off Smokey the Bear.
12) Budget cuts cause torch to be replaced by less-than-dependable Bic
    lighter.
11) Difficulty getting melted marshmellows off torch after "s'mores"
    party got out of hand.
10) Running 7 miles before realizing the torch is still on top of the
    urinal at the last rest stop.
9)  First-degree burns to runners unfamiliar with how to "receive the
    baton."
8)  Jim Bob, lying in wait on the outskirts of Memphis with a case of
    Bud and a supersoaker.
7)  Rosie Ruiz takes flame in NYC -- appears 30 minutes later in
    Atlanta.
6)  Drive-by goosings.
5)  Torchbearers driven insane by repeated playing of the "Chariots
    of Fire" theme.
4)  Torch-jackings in urban areas.
3)  Crazed hippie terrorists replace Olympic Torch with new Olympic Bong.
2)  Male runners repeatedly get lost and refuse to stop for directions.

and the Number 1 Problem Encountered Along the Olympic Torch Route...

1)  Obnoxious drunks who run up and yell, "No, I meant a BUD light!"

	Here's something for everyone that believes the full moon screws 
up everything. Three vans all broke down that night and it would never 
have happened if some kind soul didn't pipe up and give the system a 
ride and then sit through the mosiqutoes to give it a ride home. 
Citranola oil for tiki torches is a must for locations like that, next 
thing on my list to bring to EVERY outdoor party?

	If you were at the festivities at the end of the parade route,
did you happen to see me? I was the one who was topless with the words
"If you're butch, I'm available" inked onto my fairly large, er, gazongas.
:-) There was some more cool stuff down by the fountain where a whole
group of people were playing & swimming in the water nude until they
were chased out by the "safety" people... Sigh... to be able to go
out in public like that every day...

	If BM is a _show_, does a rave really fit the purpose of the event?
	Is our dance enough to create a "performance" as expected for BM?

	I've been told that raves might actually not be _so_ welcomed at 
	BM, because they "take" more than they "give", which doesn't fit the 
	deep spirit of the event.

	This is a very deep criticism of our scene, and is actually the only 
	thing which would prevent me to attend, if my presence as only a
	raver is considered unfriendly to the event.

	How do the others feel about that?

I hope that all the straights who attended the events in the City were
welcomed, and not resented, feared, etc., just for being straight.  Some of
us are not a threat to anyone.  Part of the reason (a VERY small part) that
I didn't attend was that I felt my presence might not be wanted, or that I
might be confronted with a situation with which I'd be uncomfortable (I've
been approached before, and it frightened me).  Does anyone understand what
I'm saying?  Any thoughts?  Please be kind :)

With several thousand people attending, I doubt it will be the ravers
taking and not giving...

I don't think ravers will be considered BM unfriendly.  I think ravers know
better than anyone what it means to engage in a spiritual, ritualistic
pagan celebration.

I think if anyone will be not welcome at BM are the people who drink way
to much beer and say "Hey, we are in the middle of the desert, we can
do whatever we frickin' want" and proceed to drive their car at 100 mph
in the middle of the night through the main camp, take photos/videos/gawk at
nude people, litter, do donuts, you get my drift.

Plurry ravers in the desert have resulted in some of my most intense 
experiences as a human on Planet Earth at serveral Moontribes in socal.

I think ravers will *make* BM the cool party the promoters envision.
I can't imagine that party being half as good without us.

It's the music, loud, constant, dare I say, incessant, that is the problem,
and to help curb that they are moving the rave camp *2* miles away from the
main camp (opposed to 1 mile last year) and having the loudest systems
point away from the main camp.

I'm quite certain it isn't about who we are, or what we do, it's that it
involves very loud, thumping music the entire time with the exception of
when it's raining.

To be quite honest, it got to me last year, which is why I'll be camped
away from the rave camp, but I'll probably swing by once in a while.  ;^)

Hi everyone,
	I know that there are a lot of web authors and programmers on this
list. I am one too, I am not sure where this will go but I have an idea
that we should network, maybe have some sort of freelance collective to
share work ideas skills etc. I think a good place to start would be to
keep a database of people and skills willing to take on freelance work,
 put up a web page with this info, If you are interested or have
any more ideas or comments or want to be part of this, e-mail me privately
at trose@uclink2.berkeley.edu.

Hi All,

I'm trapped in the office and would love to find a Web site where I can 
hook up to some music--house=good, techno=better, goa=best! I'm using 
RealAudio, and I've already heard most of Groove Radio's shows. 
Suggestions???

Thanks.

:)
Kathryn

[ to sfraves list ]

 I see on the calendar that Come/Unity will be happening this Wednesday!
I haven't been to one in ages... and the next day is a day off! Does 
anyone have any special news about this week's Come/Unity, other than
it being at 1015 Folsom, 10PM-4AM, 21+ , $7 , DJs Simon, Jeno, and
Garth?

 Also - I see the hospice charity event "Chateau de Boom" is happening the
next day in Hillsboro from noon-8PM. Is anyone in SFRaves involved with
that, and is there any special details were should know about it ( are
there age restrictions? ). $3 is the stated admission. But, what is
"classic spelling" ?

"Loud, constant, incessant" -
could anyone hope for more ??  :)  :)

For three days last year at Burning Man,
the music I love most became
the (literal) soundtrack for my life!!

I camped in the rave camp last year &
on the night of the craziest storm, I stayed inside my
sleeping bag, so blissful - drifting in and
out of sleep and rain and dreams and beats.

In my tent that night, cozy, listening to the music -
hell, VIBRATING WITH THE MUSIC, as it thumped up
into me from the ground - knowing that outside, people
were dancing madly through the wind & the rain,
dancing as if their very lives depended on filling up
400 sq. miles of darkness with such ENERGY....
I felt so connected to everything, and like
there was nowhere at all that I would rather be.

Yay!!  oh, yay!!  Just remembering this makes me so happy!

The Black Rock desert is a beautiful place.

eric - 

not to worry.  the more, the merrier..  plus, unless you're gawking,
holding on to your girlfriend and saying "oh my god!!" a lot, nobody would
even know or care that you were straight.  as far as getting picked up on,
once you've been here for a while, you'll get used to it.  you might even
get to the point where you flirt back most of the time.  it's great fun!
just keep on smiling... plur at parades is just as good as plur at raves.

With twice as many people going this year, though, I bet it won't seem 
like two miles out.  The main camp is obviously going to be bigger and 
therefore more spread out and there will still be complainers.

HotWired has a set by Jon Williams and Derrick May, recorded back on
February 26 of this year... There's an interview with Derrick, plus a hour
or so DJ set from each. Here's the direct RA links, just cut and paste the
URLs below into your browser. (You can't look at the pages that went with
this event, but you CAN listen to the audio.)

We will be doing more events like this in the future, as soon as we move
into our new facilities...

Dear All;

	I feel a fear that I don't understand. It's weird, because as I look at 
this feeling, fear being an emotion; question it, I draw a fustrated blank. 
Feelings not being facts, I'm approached by a person I believe for all intents 
and purposes wishes me no harm, and to the contray wants to make me feel good 
because they like me. Yet, I am almost parazied, by a feeling that litertally 
chokes all logical reason from me. Why?

	Logic would indicate that if companionship is the goal that being 
available to both sexes would make that goal twice as easy to obtain. Or is the 
goal reproduction. Reproduction being for all intents and purposes the act of 
having sex to make a baby.

	I feel the goal for most people is companionship because reproduction as 
defined above is the last and furthest thing on my mind when I meet someone I'm 
attracted to.

	So why the fear? It's just so frustrating, and to add to that it seems 
like neither community accepts bi-sexuals, or so I've been told.

	I'm personally straight and don't understand when I see something as 
clearly logical as this, why these (feelings) stop me. 

Peace

Conditioned response.  They've been brainwashing us since day one.
(to be read with an appropriate dose of sarcasm--but not too much)

Sounds more ominous than it is but essentially one assumes the
emotional responses of ones environment--most prejudice is learned from
one's parents, friends, society, etc...

If you live in an environment were you aren't around homosexual,
bi-sexual or heterosexual behaviour or more importantly were it's
relegated to the fringes or just condemned, it wont seem normal or
natural to you emmotionaly despite what the logical mind says.

Face your fear, accept what you know to be right and the fear
will eventually fade.

"Fear is the mind killer" unless you let your mind kill the fear first.

 That's 'cause Come/Unity , being a repeating event at a fixed time of each 
month, is placed in the "weeklies" section of the calendar - check the
calendar again under the "Wednesday" weekly section.

Hey there!  Me and a buddy are trippin' up to Portland, Oregon, for the
Fourth of July (7-4-96).  We were hoping to hear about some gatherings
before we left. If anybody out there in WEB-land knows of some really
positive-vibe places, please let us know.  We don't do that dark thing at
all!  Nope, we just like the Love-vibe.  You can drop a line via the SFRaves
or send direct e-mail.  Thanks so much.  Godbless...

Precedence: bulk

Hey sfravers!  This post may take you a bit off guard and is a bit long, but
I REALLY needed to express myself.  Can you relate?  I hope so. This warning
post could may be considered weird, or kooky, or drug-induced....but it is
not in any way.  I write simply because I care so much about all of you.  

I'll try to be brief and to the point, cause I know you all can handle it.
This will offend some of you, but those who appreciate the love of God and
the beautiful "positive" vibes we share at selected gatherings may well
appreciate what I've got to say.  Others will not like this post, cause I'm
"outing" them bigtime. I've attended raves from New York to San Francisco
and points in-between. SF is actually my home, but I am away for a while.  
The group called "Come unity" (aka:  community) is bad news.  I've been to
their gatherings before and they are bluntly...Satan-worshippers.  And I do
mean this quite literally.  They go beyond ideals of peganism and actually
practice worship of the ultimate negativity.  They call out to demons, seek
to practice what they call "ancient" rites and are altogether very foolish.
The energy at their so-called gatherings is swirling, confusing and heated
with types of negativity that actually can molest unsuspecting individuals.
They will deny this completely if you confront any of their "members" and
will dodge all of the issues I speak of here.  But as I have said, I know
this first hand.  If you peel away the layers of novices and hapless people
who have simply stumbled into their party, you'll find a "secret" cult group
that is organized and diabolical.  This is their core and it is quite ugly.

My worst and best experience with them happened in 1994.  I was called to
attend their gathering around 4:30am.  It was at the SoundFactory space.
They absolutely hated my presence there because I was reaching out beyond
their self-imposed prision (that horrific negative energy I described
earlier).  They bumped me.  Heckled me.  And attacked me in various ways.
Their eyes were big and black, and it was not due to 'crissy' or 'X'.
My crime? I was simply trying to shine my light, because I love all of you
so much.  But the tables were turned on them.  Let's just say that an
"awesome" assistance was rendered that night to turn the tables. Special
assistance was rendered from the ultimate Love vibe that night to help those
poor children, who were caught up in that nasty scene, see more clearly what
was going down.  Thus, it was one of my worst because I found "community" to
be actual, bonifide, card carrying Satan-worshippers...and it was one of my
best experiences because they lost the "battle" that night.  So to speak.
Their hexigons and magick candles and demons were seen by many for what they
really are:  Foolishness.  Emptiness.  Lies.  Powerlessness.  Pathetic, huh? 

So here's my warning for each of you:  be aware!  Someone recently told me
there is nothing quite like experience..and to this I agree.  But I must add
that immersing yourself and giving up self-awareness and conscious thought
IS NOT what self-discovery is about. In fact, this is the OPPOSITE!  There
are many opportunities out "there" to grow in Love and to become acquainted
with the larger concepts of Life and our existance.  Sadly, "community" is
not one of them.  So please be aware and I hope you'll seek out other places
to attend, especially if you are seeking the 'real' positive vibe in Truth.

Taking a chance for Love,

Troy          

p.s.  Please don't be afraid to shine that beautiful light inside of you.
You were not made "wrong".  Love is real!

I've got about twelve full-length techno, trance, and rave cd's on my site. 
it's called x-radio and it's at http://www.x-radio.com/x-radio/.  I've got 
another dozen cd's on my desk waiting to be encoded.

Let me know what you think, and if you've got any requests, send them to me.

Since we're on the subject of internet radio, I should mention that I've been 
looking to add some programming to the site.  My next step, after getting the rest 
of these cd's on, is to add a few live programs.  I was thinking about finding 
somebody that had a "real" (as opposed to "internet" ) radio show and simulcasting 
it on the net.  I know others have done one-off simulcasts, but I'd like to make it 
a regular event, say, each week.

Or, if there is an enterprising radio personality out there that would like to creat 
their own show and broadcast it on the net, that would work too.  I mean, come on, 
there's how many of us now, 30-50 million?

If anybody's interested, you know where to find me.

Best,
pauly

Dear Wowser;

	First of all there is NO GOD, you've been lied to as we all have. Second I've 
been to Community many times and if they are in satan worship they also have been lied 
to because it doesn't exsist either. The bible is trash as well as the satanic one; they 
are both self subscribed, self perpetuating, control systems; don't believe the hype, 
and stop doing speed.

	As for Community being evil, it's a great party, it's the most awesome monthly 
going, and yes I have NO affiliation will them, I just like their party. Furhter more if 
the satanist like to party like community does, then sign me up. What kind of rave do 
you go to, ones sponsored by Bob Dole, ravers for Christ.

	Jesus Christ!!! man do you actually think in this whole fucking thing we call 
the universe, this infinite space where; to quote Carl Sagan there are millions, and 
millions and millions of stars, surrounding them are billions, and billions, and 
billions of planets. That you think we the people of Earth, a planet so far out in the 
sticks of the galaxy, that we are Gods chosen people; HA HA HA. This belief is so 
grandiose, & megalomical, it itself is a sin.

	Please do not bore the educated, aware, and enlightened with this childish 
tripe.

	Yes, please do something for the planet, first lose the God stuff enough people 
have died ovber Christ for me to belief it's a bad thang. Second belief in yourself, 
your worth it belief it or not. Third go to community and have so fun for Christ's sack, 
I know he would want you to be happy, he is Christ you know pure love.

Peace

Dear All;

	He's mine!!!!!

Dear Wowser;

	First of all there is NO GOD, you've been lied too, as we all have. Second, I've

to because Satant doesn't exsist either. The bible is corruptted trash as well as the satanic one; they

speed, it is rotting your brain.

	As for Community being evil, it's a great party, it's the most awesome monthly 
going, and yes I have NO affiliation will them, I just like their party. Further more, if 
the satanist like to party like community does, then sign me up. What kind of rave do 
you go to, ones sponsored by Bob Dole, ravers for Christ, Christians for E, Catholics for House Music, 
Buddists for Trance, huh?

	Jesus Christ Man!!!! do you actually think this whole fucking thing we call 
the universe, this infinite space where; to quote Carl Sagan there are billions, and 
billions and billions of stars, surrounding them are trillions, and trillions, and 
trillions of planets, that could support all sorts of life forms. That you think we the people of Earth, 
a planet so far out in the sticks of the galaxy, that we are gods chosen people; HA HA HA. This belief is 
sooooo grandiose, & megalomical, the belief itself is a sin.

	Please do not bore the educated, aware, and enlightened with this childish 
tripe.

	Look at history man!!!, gods have come, gods have gone, look at the roman gods like jupiter, the 
greek gods like zeus and apollo, and the eyption gods like rah; where are they today. I tell ya where 
they are today, an old rotten dung of a memory; interesting only to historians and people needing 
something to believe in because they won't or can't believe in themselves.

	Yes, please do something for the planet & yourself. First, lose the God stuff, haven't enough 
people have died over that Christ person. Enough have for me to believe it's a bad thang. Second, try and 
believe in yourself, see that you are divine, that we are divine, and feel your own power; your worth it 
believe it or not. Third go to community and have some fun for Christ's sake, I know Christ almighty 
would want you to be happy & content, he is Christ you know; pure love. We were not put here to resist 
every tempation that could make us feel good so we can feel miserable.

Peace

THX-1138:
	Whoa, my friend, I think you need to go night-night! ;) 

	It's way too late to form a coherent argument, but it's also too late
to not jump in on one...
	Wowser never mentioned Christ(I don't think), and he didn't come down on
non-Christian beliefs (it wasn't clear whether "pagan ideals" were good or bad),
just "evil" Satanism.  Disregarding the fact that not all Satanists (and some
would say no "true" Satanists) are evil or practice evil, he theoretically has a
point, if you believe in any kind of group-generated vibe/power at all:
"bad vibe not good, intentional bad vibe worse" (I'm tired).  And if you don't,
he's still entitled to his spiritual/religious beliefs.

	That being said, I think he's being crazy as f**k too.

One way to find out, of course, is to go.  Heck I wasn't so sure if I was going
to go, but after reading his post I can't miss it!!

See you there?

should be just that - PERSONAL.  I think that trying to impose one's 
belief system on another is getting close to being the height of 
rudeness.  No matter how much text, dogma and jargon people spout, NO ONE 
KNOWS FOR SURE, FACE IT!

I am a humanist and as such don't believe in any form of the 
supernatural.  I do believe that there may be things in the universe that 
we will NEVER explain scientifically, however, simply because they are 
beyond our current ability to make sense of them.

But God as a force can't be called supernatural either ... if he exists, 
he HAS to be a part of the whole and therefore part of nature.

it's a litle too early in the morning for me to be getting into heavy 
shit like this but Wowser's post touched a nerve ... and THX1138's did 
too, from the opposite direction.  I don't agree with any of the 
accusations Wowser levelled at Come Unity, but i just as strongly 
disagree with THX1138's lack of respect in his response.

Actually, probably lack thereof. I hear there has been great progress made

Cool!!! Given that the Burning Man theme is Hell this year, you think I 
can sign up for my card there? Man, what will they think of next? Does 
the card entitle you to discounts anywhere, for Satan related business, 
like, I dunno, trips to a lawyer, or your next purchase of a Microsoft 
product?

daddy--what does regret mean?

Well, son--a funny thing about
regret is, it's better
to regret something you have
done than to regret something you haven't done.

And by the way, if you see
your mother at Comeunity, tell her   SATAN
SATAN        SATAN       SATAN       SATAN        SATAN        SATAN

Ok, so who's going where tonite???

I had thoughts of Come/Unity... However mingleing with the Club Kidz till 2AM
dosen't really agree with me...

Promise lives up to it's name with it's lineup alone... 

I've been to both locations before so the sense of "something new"  is a moot
point,  the costs is the same and they're about 10 -15 Min from each other...

Hmmm, any suggestions...

(Belive me the "come/unity  warning" post has been filed under the: "Humor/
This is the reason not to take too much drugs" section of my mail, and is in
no way swaying my decision...)

It'll be a long, fun weekend (especially if you can take Friday off too!) -
Freedom, Wicked, Organic and Bulletproof are all doing parties, and the

There's also a Stompy event at 1015 during the day on the Fourth; 
I lost the flyer but it should be fun.  Trust me :).

I'm definitely going to "The Promise" simply because of it's printed
message/story inside the flyers...the story is AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL!!!
I was going to transcribe it and post it to SFRaves but I've given
all my flyers away and don't have any more copies with me here at work!
I have an extra copy of just the story at home so I'll make some
photocopies and bring them to the party tonight...I'd love to give you
a copy if you haven't read it yet, just ask me for one! 

I'll be wearing a Curious George t-shirt and I have really short hair
and am about 5'8" and asian.

Peace Everyone!
John

	You shouldn't have worried, last weekend was a weekend for all
peoples, straight or otherwise, to meet, mingle, and share a day in the sun.
I know that I didn't care about the (I can only assume) straight guys
coming up to me and asking to have their picture taken with me. It was just a
really cool vibe.

I totally get where you're coming from. Sometimes I get the
heebeejeebees just walking around The Castro on an average day. In the
past, I've had members of my gender attempt to pick me up on the
street more often than women have. It had a way of calling into
question my manliness, if you know what I mean.

As for the parade, I attended it for the first time with four of my
friends -- all of us being straight, to a degree. (I don't consider it
to be a black and white thing, really.)  I found the scene very
entertaining. One of my favorite bits was the group of paraders toting
a banner that read, "Straights for Gay Rights". That was right on for
us. Another one was when I saw one of my roommates (who happens to be
of the lesbian persuasion) walking along on the very last float in the
parade, The Church of Radiant Light. We shared waves, smiles, and
blown kisses as she marched by. Needless to say, I felt quite welcome
there (and I wasn't even hit on, either).

It's all come a long way for me. Ever since high school, when
classmates called me a "faggot", I was quite homophobic. I was
programmed to think that being straight was normal, at a time when I
was in great need of acceptance. It wasn't until I moved to New York
City in 1990, and got to know several gay and lesbian people well,
that I was able to confront that biggotry of the past, and what
created it, and open myself up to accept and be related with people of
all sexual persuasions.

My advice for you is to inquire into how you became who you are
sexaully. What were those moments in your past that forced you to make
the sort of decisions that I made back in high school? What does being
gay mean to you? What judgements and opinions do you have about gay
men, and gay culture?

PLUR,
George (about an 8 on the gay-straight scale, 10 being totally straight)

> p.s.  Please don't be afraid to shine that beautiful light inside of you.
> You were not made "wrong".  Love is real!

I'm not afraid to shine my beautiful judeo/pagan/pantheist light on
you.  My light sees that you are steaming pile of shit with a halo of
flies. You need to deprogram yourself from your twisted schooling in
Christianity, in whose name the greatest evils of this earth have been
perpetrated (crusades, pogroms, witch burgnings, slavery, and the
rape/abuse of innocent children at the hands of "celibate" priests and
nuns). Lots of dead souls hovering around there,
killed/tortured/maimed/repressed at the expense of your smothering,
mind-numbing, lie-perpetuating, stupefying "christian" love. Jesus can
kiss my ass, not because of who he was (a charismatic jew of the essene
order), but because of what asshole christians like yourself have
twisted his "love" into.

Also, just because "signs and symbols" of paganism are used, doesn't
make a group satanic -- and satanism is completely different from
paganism. Those symbols existed long before that charlatan called Jesus
became the comic-book hero of the unwashed and stupid 2000 years ago,
and Satan was just reinvented to provide a balanced dialectic anti-hero
for the comic book we call the New Testament. The Old Testament doesn't
really give a flying fuck about Satan he's just part of "the one" which
encompasses good/bad, love/hate and all dialectics imaginable. We jews
believe in the "one" (adonai echad!, ALL-IN-ONE-GOD-FAITH of Rabbi
Hillel (Jesus' teacher), and the everything-is-god of the Jewish
Pantheists (Spinoza)). All this "one" is a funny precursor to today's
"everything is related" new-agism and nature-worshipping paganism that
might be found amongst ravers today. 

The "one" is also an essential part of "funk", as in the unique
booty-freeing rhythmic structure invented by James Brown and handed
down to his funky house/techno/dub disciples today, it's the same "one"
that DJ's aspire to when they beatmatch... finding the universal rhythm
of god in nature and beats ... it's the "one" in which dancers come
together as a whole "sum is greater than the parts" that makes a rave
(or COME/UNITY). You're god, I'm god, we're all god and so is the earth
and the heavens.

Once you realize that you can make your own heaven here on earth by
believing in "the one" you can do away with your pathetic christian
notions of a paternalistic "god" and a paternalistic anti-god called 
"satan" and seek your salvation in your direct future of the here and
now.

Personally, I *LIKE* it when satanic symbols are used at raves. It
keeps butt-stupid spoon-fed-by-ignorant-lies-to-keep-them-submissive
Christians like yourself away from a perfectly good party.

Hey did you dig some of that old Woodstock brown acid out of your bottom

giving up drugs alltogether? They weren't designed for everyone? Seeking

 Come/Unity AND Promise - Why Not ???

 Seeing the recent topic thread of Come/Unity vs. Promise - I thought to
myself "Why not try to attend BOTH?" 

 Pros: I would see more folks that I know if I go to both events.
       Musical variety
       Crowd contrasts

 Cons: Missing "favorite" DJs if I'm at "the other place"
       May get kept out if there are no "ins-and-outs" allowed

 So - Will Come/Unity allow ins-and-outs ?
      Will Promise allow ins-and-outs ?

      Come/Unity is scheduled to go until 4AM - what about Promise?

      How far will Promise be from 1015 Folsom?

 Any answers to my questions would be gratefully received!

Hey SampleHeads!

I'm trying to get ahold of the MegaBass Sampling CD.  I borrowed it from a friend (who has since lost the CD!) and sampled a ton of vocal stuff.  The drive that the samples were on took a nasty fall and, well, it no work no more. 

All I need is One vocal sample off the CD, called "Crying for More".  If anyone has this CD, Please Email me privatly.

Thanxs!!

YES!  =)

        My favorite was "Decension" Put together by the drop bass network
in Milwaukee.  On the flyer it had a grinning red devil, complete with
pitchfork!!!  Designed for this exact reason!!!  It was an EXCELLENT though
intense party!

Bless you raver son, 

Your email was too long to actually read Niels
but I saw something about spoonfed and thought 
fondly of myself ...

a day late - Crash Worship has not an ounce of musical
interestingness to back up their cake throwing freak parade.
The show blew ... I left after about 1/2 hour or 45 minutes.

my line - used only once (so is it really a line?) - at that
concert was "no one told me I was supposed to wear face paint"
to which I received the somewhat clever or at least snappy retort 
"I wear it every day honey (wink)".

I can't help myself - I'm going to quote Gertrude Stein
who is actually quoting Pablo Picasso ...

"They are not men, they are not women, they are Americans."

Have a happy 4th!
Dave

Neil :

While I find the rest of your message both infomative and informed as well
as entertaining,
I don't agree with the closing paragraph. Of course I acknowledge the fact
that you are expressing
a personal opinion but my own opinion is that rave paries should be kept
free of all religious
and political interference.
I extend this viewpoint to the recent Gays at Raves discussion. Why use
labels such as religion, color,
gender preference, etc. to pigeon-hole each other ? This happens enough in
the world outside of the parties we attend.
 I beleive that any organised religion is a personal matter for an individual.
For centuries religion has been used as a tool to beat your neighbor with
or an exuse to hate someone you don't even know or looks different to you.
In Nicholas Saunders book "ecstacy" he writes about the rave scene in
Northern Ireland. Here, he tells about Catholic and Protestants coming
together and partying. This NEVER happened in the days before
house/Techno.
In closing, I think any religious affiliations should be left at the club
entrance.

P.S. See you all at Come-unity tonight. I'll be the one without the
inverted pentagram. :-)

I called the voicemail this am, and Promise is at 21st and Mission. I'm 
going to swing by there on my lunch hour to see what the location's like, 
but my impression is that it's sorta residential around there. I don't 
know what the possibilities are for noise complaints, but I wonder if 
it'll really go all night. Anyone else have some perspective?

	Well, actually a few have. Sebastin from Spiral Tribe came over and
was doing parties with SPAZ, but few people went out to them. Think about 
this, how many people will come out to a party that does not have a 
reputation in SF? How many people will come out to a party that doesn't 
print a big huge flyer with the same five names on it? A name goes a 
really long way in SF as far as I have seen, and if you are from out of 
town, you aren't going to be able to come in here, setup shop and throw 
your type of party as far as I have seen...

Just wondering wich sf ravers went?  I thought the space was super, it was 
held at Pier 21 I believe (one of those) and certainly enough dancing room 
was available.  I didn't catch much of Myster E's set but I really found 
myself dancing hard to Mars.  I think I may check out Pack a Bowl tomorrow 
night for the trance war! I'll definately plan on the F-8 party next Sat at 
Red Rock!

Dear All;

	Ok, just for the record, I'll entertain the existence of God, & Jesus Christ just to be fair. He 
or maybe she is suppose to come back, ya know the second coming. So how will we recognize this person,
let a lone what will we call him, or her; Jesus 2. How will we recognized this person, will they have a 
tattoo or something saying I am the messenger of god. Or will they just walk into the white house and say 
I'm the second coming of christ; (chuckle) they usually lock those people up. Well, maybe their coming, 
maybe their living in our time right now, maybe their locked up in a mental hospital right now; has 
anyone checked The Betty Ford Center. Maybe, just maybe their gonna come back, and tell us that we all 
been lied to; maybe. Maybe, they'll come back and perform miracles like healing AIDS patients, or maybe 
that's what they will tell the people ten thousand years from now when all this is forgotten.

	Anytime I run into a belief system I apply what I call the Pure Love Logic Test to it. It kinda 
goes like this; if the belief system in question makes another human being less than human, it is nothing 
more than hatred, and a license for oppression. So if it dehumanizes, it's bad.

	Our creator gave us a way to tell when something is right, and something is wrong; it's called 
our body. When I believe in myself I feel powerful, complete, whole, and loved. I get goose bumps and 
chills all over by body; it just feels sooo right, and it's never ever failed me. So go a head try and 
believe in yourself, that you can change the world, that you are divine, and you can make a difference. 
Does your body tell you something, how does it feel, I'll bet pretty good. Does it feel like it fits you, 
like your familiar with it, something that you can trust without doubt, or debate, something you just now 
to be true?

	So instead of waiting for a human being to come back from the dead, which has not happened to 
date. Why don't we all start believing in ourselves, and when we believe in ourselves, we end up 
accepting & believing in each other, and we just might end up taking ourselves, our race, and our planet 
where it's never been before; hey and if they come back we can all say; hey we didn't need you go have a 
beer and chill by the DJ.

although from my understanding, another of the gripes against ravers last year
dealt with the beleif that many (majority) of the people who came to the
festival without buying tickets were people who went there just for the rave,
and thought of the whole burning man thing as secondary.  This may not be
true, but in fact a great many people who were there last year didn't
buy a ticket.  A number of the ravers I talked to can be included in this 
category.

	Well, the simple answer is all the alcohol that was observed from 
the bars. Underground doesn't really have income like that to invest in 9 
intelabeams (which make the place far too bright anyway). I kinda of like 
scrounging in the spaces that other people seem to think aren't really 
good for anything - though I wouldn't mind an open air balcony. There is 
something about taking a space, making due with its constraints and 
filling it with the energy we bring in... Then we do have outdoor parties 
and one would be very hard pressed to find a club that is rigged to bring 
a simple lazer out and bounce it aruond a valley all night like I have 
heard people talking about doing very soon...

	And will a dj spin a killer set if the crowd cannot keep up with 
that djs energy? If the crowd oozes the meatmarket aggressive vibe, how 
is that going to affect the dj because as I see it, there is a big energy 
circle that forms between the crowd and the dj and when the crowd doesn't 
want to go in the direction the dj moves (or the dj moves too quickily in 
that direction with setting it all up and the like) the crowd isn't going 
to match that energy... So I would think the two are linked in such a way 
that you cannot say the music makes a party or the crowd makes a 
party....

Ultimately, in the name of fairness, I'd have to agree with you on this
one. It is probably as inappropriate to have overt "satanic" symbols at
a rave as it is to have massive "crucifixes" or "stars of david" all
over the place because of the cultural connotations they have. Same
with swastikas. (I remember complaining about the original SFR logo
back in 93-94 because it looked like a crucifix to me)....

On the other hand, perhaps having religious symbolism around is 
appropriate in that it allows people to reclaim symbols that have been
given inappropriate cultural significance, e.g. pentagrams are defined
"evil" by christians, and swastikas by nazis (even though swastikas are
used decoratively in india w/o such cultural connotations -- hitler
stole the symbol from the hindus).

Beyond that, there's the possiblity of using symbols as an in-your-face
way of reclaiming/proclaiming your identity and strength of being
"outside the norm". Much in the way homosexuals have reclaimed "gay"
"queer" and even "faggot" as their own. Maybe the "satanic" (pagan)
symbols serve this kind of purpose??

Since I have to deal with Christian symbology on a day-to-day basis as
a citizen of this country, i think it's only fair to counterbalance all
those "in god we trust" and "under god" credos with appropriate
equal-and-opposite counterbalance (especially because I know that
"their" god is not my god). So what's a simple pentagram between
friends?

I'll probably be at C/U tonite if I'm not too tired from slaughtering 
farm animals for sacrifice. Perhaps I'll drag out my upside-down
crucifix earring. I remember some asshole threatening to beat me up a
few years ago for that one -- guess he wanted to show some of his good
Christian love...

On the subject of Burning Man (BM) and paying or not.... since I know the
guys that put the affair on and subsequently that they don't get rich
off of it.... I'd like to suggest considering paying for the affair if you
can at all... the $$$ ($40) goes to keep good porta potties, lots of BLM
people, emergency air lift backup, the building and transport of THE MAN,
BM radio station etc.... even if there was $50K+ left after expenses the
main crew would split that to actually make very little each... This is
really no way to get rich.

  Also, consider not leaving a mess since EVERYTHING including ashes from
fires must be cleaned from the playa... last year I watched them sweep up
the ashes of the man before I left... so $$$ also helps pay for the cleanup
which takes some time after the event ends to complete... unlike a forest
where trash can hide - it's really easy to spot any garbage left on the
flat, otherwise desolate playa.... and you can be sure the BLM people are
watching....

Just a public service announcement... ;-)

I think it's 'promise' for me... I'm bringing a couple of newbies out and
i'm scared that come/unity will be too housey and too crowded & clubby to
give them a good first experience..  I know I would be able to enjoy it by
bringing some good energy and connecting to folks while dancing crazily,
but my friends who haven't done this before might not be able to do that. 

Hope to see many of you there!!

Hey all !

I'll be celebrating my b-day (after 12 tonite) at Come-unity, and maybe
Promise later.
Easy to spot me : I'll be the one surrounded by an entourage of beautiful people
proferring sweet-meats, party favors and free love.
Er...actually I'll be checking for a friend in the patio around 12.30 so
I'll probably

Not really rave realted except for the music loop on the backgroud.
Comming soon instead of the music loop it will be Orbital's Satan on

	 When we asked the people at the gate where the sound systems were, the 
woman working got all flustered and went off about how us ravers had to 
pay just like everyone else; this was before we handed over our money 
that we had in a nice little stack - though I admit it was short like 10 
bux between the 5 of us in the car. So after handing over the money I 
explained I wasn't trying to get in free, just wanted to know where we 
were going, and she said the people working had many people say "They 
were with the sound system" and because of this, they should be exempted 
from paying. That would explain why the staff didn't like many of the 
raver people. 
	To represent all sides, the festival is on BLM land and 
just because some idiot is asking you to pay for toilets which you don't 
use because you know how to pack you shit in and out and you are not 
really there for the fesitval anyway so the BLM should not count you in 
the organized use permit that the Burning Man project pays for is simply 
ridiculous (take from an argument on the burning man list)... Legally, 
the burning man project has no way of making you pay. And legally, you 
have no recourse for when you wake up and find your tires slashed in 
the middle of the playa, far from the nice easy things that cities 
have, unless you saw who did it ;)

	Not all people who came up to rave camp were looking for the same
spiritual or ritualistic celebration (let alone some form of pagan
celebration - whose definition of pagan celebration are we going to use
here anyway?). There were plenty of people with tons of attitude flicking
cig butts in a most practiced manner across the playa (just for the
record, it was the manner that the butt was flicked that I making this
judgement on) and whether that has anything to do with spiritualism and
the like doesn't have much bearing on my perception that I considered them
arses. There was this conversation that I was sitting in on, near sunrise
on Saturday morning where someone guy was talking about how commnity was a
great thing and he was all for it, but that currently, any community we
might have had at the time was dead, a lie, a pipedream, or a basic
delsuion - quite frankly, I thought he was full of shite. I think that the
pretenious behavior that could be found in parts of rave camp during the
day could have something to do with other people looking unfavorably at
those people who chose to inhabit such a place, especially when most
people at the festival have an active saracasm unit. Saracasm and
preteniousness don't mix too well when the saracasm is making light of it
all. 
	All kinds of people come up to the rave camp of burning man. Some 
of them may be on the same journey as you. Some may seem like twisted 
evil fiends. Some will have a sense of saracasm and be able to laugh 
while others cannot and take offense at just about everything. (warning, 
about to speak out of my arse) The main thing about the "spirit of 
participating" is not producing a show, but interacting with the people 
around you and not playing the judgemental observer who sits back and 
stares things up and down but does not put any of oneself out. If you are 
going to go up and be an arsehole, you will probably be viewed as one. If 
you go up and play, I doubt anyone is going to shit (as long as you can 
laugh a little) and be prepared to be open enough to let people run 
around naked spewing fire from their mouth without crinckling your nose 
(although I suppose one would have to be comfortable enough with oneself 
to do that that your crinckled nose wouldn't have too much effect on them).

	Hmmm, main camp had Xoas camp spewing forth a loud siren 
throughout the night. I doubt that the beats of rave camp were much more 
annoying than that.

	That's my spew... Have a good time if you come up...

[ to sfraves list , from Larry Ching ]

 The Last Times ( for awhile ... )

[ The following contains no news about raves , and can be skipped by
  folks who don't know me ]

 I've recently decided to greatly reduce my attendance at raves for an 
undeterminate amount of time ( maybe a few months or until Spring 1997 ). 

Some personal issues have led to my decision, including an attempt to
improve my resume by learning some Mac OS C programming. Every once and
awhile, I'll keep my sanity by showing up at a daytime event like Sunset 
or a Golden Gate bandshell party or a beach rave. But no overnighters 
for now.

 Also, I'll be unsubscr*bing from SFRAves soon, for about the same period
of time as my "rave drought". [ Reading about all the great upcoming 
raves would just be too tempting! ] I'll still be getting the calendar, to 
anticipate and schedule any upcoming daytime events. 

 I want to say that it's been a great four years on the SFRaves mailist 
for me, and I've met a lot of wonderful folks because of it! Blessings to 
all of you! I shall return, someday. 

 Anyway, I'm going to do tonight's parties like they're my last! I'm 
starting at Come/Unity for my heart's sake - staying until it gets too 
crowded, then go to Promise. Tomorrow, after a nap and some food, the
AIDS benefit called Chateau de Boom . The rest of the weekend - I don't
know.

 Anyway, if you see me tonight,say "hello/goodbye" ! I'll be wearing a 
black t-shirt with a cubist rendition of a jazz band on the front, and on 
my face will be my perscription, red-rimmed, "rave goggles". Oh - and
maybe some SFRaves regalia ... 

 Love 2U All !

Hey SFRavers-

Does anybody know anything about this Mission Move event? (see the following 
e-mail)  My brother and I went to the Transatlantic Move and this sounds 
interesting. Camel Cigs sponsored the whole thing and I still have a 
collectors edition trippy colored raver Bic lighter and matching phone 
card!!!!!!!!!!!!

gee Niels, your a liberal, you talk about loving everyone as all fucking 
liberals do, yet you and your liberal mind-set have totally contradicted
everything that you "believe" in. Let the man believe in God, let him not 
go to Come/Unity, but dont tell him to go fuck himself as you did. Its 
really funny how fucking liberals like you are nothing but HYPOCRITS!
you talk about PLUR, and here you are telling him he's a bad person for

[ to sfraves mailist ]

 ( No new raves news here )

 Wardrobe change announcement! Of course , I should be wearing my first
ever "ravish" bit of clothing tonight instead of my new black t-shirt.
Look for Larry Ching in a yellow-and-black checked t-shirt with a 
big portrait of GOOFY (tm) on the front!

 Garsh!

I'm about 5'11" -6', short blond hair and reddish goatee/smig type thing.
Might be a little sun-burned as I just spent my lunchbreak lying out in

My hat is off to George, I completely respect his thoughts and 
feelings -  mature and open minded.

If the scoring system he uses is anything to go by then I am a a zero 
so I would rather use a different type of measuring stick! 

But I do concur that our society only leads us to believe that being straight 
is the norm, just as it leads us to believe that being married, 
having 2.2 children, driving a Ford Taurus and loving it at Levitz is 
"normal" too. Interestingly enough a recent study showed that in fact 
only 8% of the entire US population is "normal" according to this 
cultural myth. Gays are supposed to represent around 10% of the 
population so it would seem to me that there are more of us than 
those normal folk anyway!

Non-the-less I am not attracted to members of the opposite sex, only 
my own. I was at the Gay Pride Festival and found the whole mood to be the 
best I have encountered because it was one of openness and acceptance of 
all. I even heard one person on the stage saying lets thank the 
religious right for making us a high profile group, I believe that 
with every negative there is a hidden gift, or a way to make it a 
positive and this statement was a wonderful example of that.

Finally, my whole feeling about San Francisco is that it supports you 
who ever you are and who ever you want to be. You can be you here, 
you are allowed and encouraged to be you and not who you think you 
are supposed to be in order to please other people. What better place 
to be than one that nurtures that reality? 

Then add in the rave scene and phew, what an awesome place. In fact I 
think I will live here for the rest of my life.

The End

Bye for now

love

David

[ to sfraves again - I didn't see it show up the first time I sent it out ]

 For those who might be looking out for me - decided not to wear my
new black t-shirt w/cubist design. Instead, in honor of the occasion,
I'll be wearing my first ever "ravish" item of clothing - a yellow-and-
black checked t-shirt with a portrait of the Disney cartoon character
GOOFY (tm) .

No, don't hyperventilate - it does happen sometimes you know :)

Today's decision is to attend Promise.  And I'm very pleased with my
decision if I might say so myself.

I'd love to meet more of you so here's the ID:

I'm a human being with two eyes, a nose etc...
AND I'll be wearing all black and white with black and white stripped
tights.  They are hard to miss, especially under the black lights...

see ya there (or be way square)

In a message dated 96-07-03 03:31:46 EDT, you write:

>The energy at their so-called gatherings is swirling, confusing and heated
>>with types of negativity that actually can molest unsuspecting individuals.

Just a piece of whoevers writing.
Isn't this basically every rave? It kinda sounds like my dancing, (sorry
about hitting all you people with my chain from my keys).


So god doesn't exist. I don't completely belive that. I'm totally against
organized religion. 
People (you, me, them), are all in control of our own lives. We control
eating, sleeping, and other things. There is no entity which says that it's
your time to go. Religion has people all over the world, trying to make
people who don't even understand them convert to their religion. THRY'RE
TRYING TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!! I should at least have some clue about it,
my friend is a mormon, with two brothers off as missionaries, a mother who
watches religious cartoons all the time, and a dad whos the Bishop of the
mormon church in our area. I have never seen so many brainwashing books in
one place. Tons of books telling that everyone is evil, that your kid is
going to go to hell if he doesn't go on a mission. Some people just have
problems.
        A bit off the point there:::: So people in some way always have
affect on the outcome of themselves. There is no destiny, fate, or gods will.
You are the one who has the power to make your life happy and long, or shitty
and short. Therefor everyone is god. Everyone is their own supernatural
being. I'm God, people who would happen to believe in me could, but it
doesn't make any diffirence. They're their own gods as well, they just don't
know it yet.
        So anyone thinking that there's a good and evil are wrong. There
isn't. There are bad people who do good things and there are good people who
do bad things. And that doesn't make them evil, or good. They're just who
they choose to be.

        Have a good one!

Greetings Friends!


There's been much discussion internally, (as well as externally I imagine)
about when and if there will be a Friends and Family this summer.

Believe you me that it is the most fervent wish of everyone involved that
there be one soon, yesterday, two months ago.

Alas, spaces, that oh so infamous, and horribly scarce bay area resource,
have not been flowing for us recently, much to our frustration.

My eyes and ears are to the ground, spacewise, and as soon as one flows,
group willing, There Will Be a Party. Meantime should anyone come across
one, I'd love to hear about it =)

take it easy

I wasn't going to be anal and comment on this, but I just drank a bunch of 
coffee, and have diarrhea of the fingers, and it's kind of interesting:
	The Aryans brought the swastika with them when they invaded India from
Europe in pre-Vedic times.  They also spawned the religion of the Vedas, which
eventually evolved into Hinduism.  That's why the Hindus have the swastika, and
that's why Hitler "stole" it (to link Germany with the Aryans, and also because
it was supposed to be some symbol, I can't remember the details of that though).


	But I mostly agree with you.  Symbols are an easy way of proclaiming
your identity, being as they are loaded with meaning and... symbolism, and
imply group membership.  But this same strength is also a great weakness.  
Groups of people are always attacking other groups of people, and how easy it is
to identify and attack groups through their symbols.  Much easier than singling
them out by their viewpoints.  When the Christians wanted to take out the
pagans, they vilified them and then identified all of their symbology with evil,
making it very easy to spot and persecute the bad guys without needing to find
out just what they were really.  Or when someone sees a crucifix and can
easily realize that the wearer is a narrow-minded fool. 
	Of course, there's also the problems of people hiding behind symbols,
and of symbols becoming diluted, but I've already run on way too long and 
semi-coherently, and others have posted plenty.  I just wanted to mention the
Nazi thing :)

It only took a couple of sentences to realize that Wowser's "warning"
about Come/Unity is just a totally predictable provocation by someone
who has come under the wing of one of the cultlike "religious" outfits
out there who are always trying to save us from ourselves so they
can control our lives.  It reeks of the stale manipulative rhetoric
of that tired crowd, the self-loathing, the deceit and the outright
lying about the circumstances involved.

I'm glad to see, therefore, that sfravers are not taking this all too
seriously.  I liked both Neils' outraged and erudite flame, and Black
Adder's sly invitation to check out the *real* action -- the Year of
Hell at Burning Man.  

The whole thing runs counter to the real message of Come/Unity, one I know
Malachy, its founder, subscribes to: *think for yourself.*  That's exactly
what the Purveyors Of Revealed Truth from all ends of the spectrum don't
want us to do.  

For myself, once upon a time Come/Unity *did* have a higher meaning.
It seems to have faded a bit as the crowd and the times changed, but it's
still a great dance party and in these illbegotten times that is good
enough for me.

"Foolishness.  Emptiness.  Powerlessness.  Lies.  Pathetic."  How easily
the words we use as insults tend to describe ourselves . . .

All the same, if Wowser is actually coming to Portland (as another post
indicated), I hope I have a chance to meet him.  Nothing like a good
party to open someone's eyes and let them experience a wider reality
that they understand for themselves, rather than having it handed to
them by some Authority Figure.

Have a great holiday, everyone!

You can't judge the positive message of a religion based on how people can
twist that message to their own needs... You're doing exactly what Hard
Copy did a few months ago when there was a huge stink about their
misrepresentation of the SoCal rave scene, just because some (well, OK,
alot) of ravers take drugs and because some of them use the scene to
fullfill the "teen orgiastic isnane club" angle of the Hard Copy story.
Christianity has brought alot of hapopiness into the world... every
religion has a good message, and every religion has members who fuck up for
their own personal gain. You can't fight human nature.

>Personally, I *LIKE* it when satanic symbols are used at raves. It
>keeps butt-stupid spoon-fed-by-ignorant-lies-to-keep-them-submissive

MTV shock imagery used to get attention? sounds like another Trent Reznor
stunt to me...

I think I have serious problems with the direction this thread is taking...
actually I don't like this discussion at all because no one is actually
reading posts, just looking for parts they disagree with and fanning the
flames with 'em.

yeah, me included. =(

Subject: Look for me at Promise!
To: sfraves@hyperreal.com

Hey all!

Ok, the verdict's in for me.  Promise it is.  1) I will much more enjoy 
the dj's listed for Promise cuz I just couldn't get into ComeUnity's 
music the last time I attended.  2) ComeUnity only goes till 4 am, and 
I hear you hafta wait till at least 2 or 3 am to lose the clubbier 
types, and that only leaves me one hour of an actual rave!  So off to 
Promise I go.  

It appears Promise is at 2519 Mission, I am interested in Kathryn's 
question of bustability, does anybody know this area?  Just curious.

Anyway, look for me & come say hi!  I'll probably be wearing my comfy 
jeans as usual and a grey tank top, and I will have a bunch of shit 
around my neck, including my old-style sfraves laminate, my new FnF 
patch (produced by the Wonderful Tony Rotundo :), my Basics ticket from 
their party a few months ago, and my People!  These people consist of 
three little plastic clippy people of three different colors, and they 
rave with me wherever I rave. :)  Lastly I usually almost always have a 
hot-pink glow stick around my neck, and its possible I may dancing 
wildy with two of them.  So come say hi!

Love,
Shawna

I'm gonna head to Freedom on Saturday with some people, and I'd love to 
meet some more sfraves folks!  

How to recognize me?  Um, I'm about 6', long brown hair and glasses, and 
I'll wear (ah, what's clean?) um, a black Teeshirt with a purple lotus 
flower on the front, and tan baggypants...  and I'll wear a BIIIG smile.

;-)

Please come say hi!

love
john

Troy, I smell the words Christian hysteria in your post and the only

I think you're putting words in my mouth. I may share some opinions
with Liberals, but I don't think I can call myself a Liberal. Look
where the lamo liberal/conservative axis has gotten us? It's two poles
of the same thing as far as I'm concerned. Most things in the human
realm that split into polar opposites occur because both "sides" are
wrong and haven't found the solution. Then they end up fighting each
other's dogmas rather than solve the problems at hand. I'm still
looking for the center that is right. (and in the mean time, I'm going
to vote for Ralph Nader).

> Let the man believe in God, let him not 
> go to Come/Unity, but dont tell him to go fuck himself as you did.

They're just words, jerky. I wasn't holding him hostage at gunpoint. He
can choose to read or not read, respond or not respond at his own
opinion. He used words too. Words that insinuated that we are "evil"
and need to be "saved" and that he in his infinite, psychotic wisdom is
able to see through all the "swirling confusion" and find the ultimate
source -- SATAN! I'll tell him and any other Christian that takes this
path to go fuck himself in new and unimaginable ways. He basically told
me I'm fucked, and I feel like I have a right to respond to his idiotic
insinuations. This is how I thank him for his insightful warnings
into the true nature of things.

If he wants to be a Christian in his heart and in his mind then I'll
happily let him be. I have plenty of respect for "Christians" that have
a faith, understand it, and FOLLOW IT WITHOUT HYPOCRICY AND WITHOUT
TRYING TO CONVERT OTHER PEOPLE. Jesus' supposed teachings, and those of
Rabbi Hillel and the Essenes was a GOOD message that got twisted into a
"swirling confusion" of lies by a bunch of greedy, hypocritical,
hateful, child-molesting, adulterous assholes that now call themselves
Christians.
 
I don't know about you, but I'm the kind of "liberal" that believes
that a good verbal ass-kicking is the best defense against stupid
unenlightened opinions.
 
I don't preach love my neighbor -- I leave that bit of hypocricy to the
Christians who like to pretend "love" between sessions of theft, lies,
greed, gay-bashing, race-baiting, and taunting/denigrating those that
don't believe in their shared mass-psychosis. They preach love like
they put on their "Sunday gone-a-meetin' best" clothes before they go
to Church -- to give the impression of unity, conformity, and decency.
But  when they get back to their own world, they're typically back to
their base human instincts of greed, deceit, and lust. And typically,
they're back at it with a vengeance due to the fact that their
instincts were repressed while they're putting on a public show of
"being a good christian". This is why I think most Christians suck the
big hairy donkey dick.

> Its  
> really funny how fucking liberals like you are nothing but HYPOCRITS!
> you talk about PLUR, and here you are telling him he's a bad person for  
> believe in christianity.

There you go calling me a liberal again. Are you some kind of
politician? I call him a "bad person" because he's trying to convert
people and tell them that their pagan rituals are evil/bad; that he's
seen the light and that we're so stupid and unenlightened as to have
not noticed the presence of SATAN in our midst! (If I ever see Satan,
I'll be happy to tell him to get the fuck out of my face and get back
to giving Jesus a rim-job with his long forked tongue.)

I never talk about PLUR, except to make fun of it (go read the
archives). PLUR is just like Christian hypocricy, a lofty ideal which
cannot be practiced, but at least it allows people to intellectualize
how they would like to be perceived by others (so they can have more
friends, get laid, be popular, or whatever).

help that my roommate Jerry was rubbing it in my face as well (bless his
soul). To satisfy my dietary requirements for raving, I was planning on
attending Come/Unity last night.

At the last moment, I got a call from my fiancee, who told me that two of
our friends (who are engaged, and were planning to marry this fall) have to
get married this weekend, because the INS is holding a shotgun to the
bride-to-be's head!

As a result, I'm off to Lake Tahoe with them, and didn't go raving last
night at all. However, I'll be back in time to make it to Freedom! Yea! I'll
be wearing a t-shirt with multicolored patterns of NYC Subway tokens (sort
of Andy Warhol style), and my laminate. Hope to see y'all there.

George

P.S. Hope everyone who raved last night, either at Come/Unity, The Promise,
or wherever, had a great vibe. Reviews, please!

w/r/t to the "come/unity warning" thread... here's christianity for ya!
--------------------
Date:    Thu, 27 Jun 1996 23:39:36 -0700
From:    Andreas Ramos <andreas@NETCOM.COM>
Subject: Religion at an early age...

After Mandoki asked what to do about his boy growing up among Colombian
Catholics and then someone recommending that this is a Christian world, I
wrote the following. Now, remember, folks, I grew up in Tennessee, among
Baptists. This isn't about theology or some tract from the 1920s. This is
what it's like to grow up among Baptists. If you don't like it, well,
it's anarchy week.

I never met a Baptist minister who didn't have the morals of a snake. The
principal of our grade school was a Baptist minister and quite possibly
the most evil man I've ever known. Aside from daily hiding behind a tree
to dash out and attack us school boys at random with a stick and sexually
molesting just about every girl, he drove two black brothers out of our
school; one ended up drowning in a pond, where he'd gone in loneliness,
since he couldn't go to school. The minister's wife finally found out that
he was fucking eleven year old girls; she accused him in church one Sunday
morning. We know that Satan truely walks the face of the Earth; he sweet
talked the whole congregation into falling upon their knees and praying
and weeping for his salvation. Not a damned thing happened. He continued as
minister and principal.

Baptist friends would try to convert us as kids; my brother finally
figured out that it was only because they felt that they would get points
with Jesus. They really didn't care about us, whether we were truely
converted or not. As kids, we learned very quickly that when some damned
Salvation tent was in town, the Baptists would be intolerable with their
eagerness to find someone to convert. They'd lay their sweaty hands on
your knee and ask if Jesus was truely the King of Your Heart. If you said
no, they'd weep and pray and drive you crazy and every time you said no,
more of the fools would join the prayer circle. So we learned to lie like
their ministers and shout "o yea!  Jesus is in my heart! Hallelujah!" and
they'd give a half-hearted hallelujah and walk off, to find a jew to
convert. My brothers and I told the few Jewish and Catholic kids what we'd
discovered and after that, they didn't bother us any more. Sweet Jesus!

To this day, I still know quite a bit of the Bible. Our teachers often
read it to us; one teacher did nothing else except read the Bible to us
every day. We saw that the Bible was just rhetorical phrases that the
Baptists used to justify whatever they wanted to do: bomb the gooks in
Vietnam ("Let us PRAY for our sons and brothers who are Fighting For Jesus
in Vietnam!"), beat the shit out of the gays before the school football
games, or get some girl to suck their pecker. I remember listening to the
Baptist boys laugh about this: "oh, Lisa, I don't know, I... I... well,
maybe I don't feel that Jesus is in my heart, but... if you give me a blow
job, I'd try REAL HARD to let Jesus into my heart!" and all the boys would
fall on the floor, laughing. One girl was the blow job queen of the
school; she did the whole baseball team one night to save their souls and
win The Big Game. Blow jobs for Jesus!

Baptist girls were totally amoral: they found out that they could do
anything for Jesus. The girls at school knew that the best way to get some
hot action time with the ministers was to ask for private Bible study.

My brother was very good at ranting like a minister: "And I say ha!
Jesus is Lord ha! Open your hearts ha!" and he could get a crowd whipped
into a frenzy of hatred against this or that and take up a collection
which he usually spent on booze or Rolling Stones albums.

We all know about the TV ministers who tied themselves to a cheap motel
bed and let themselves be whipped into orgasms by black hookers or who
were using the church money to keep their mistresses in expensive
apartments. Anyone heard about Jesus Land? Some damned minister went
around in the early 70s, pointing out to farmers and their wives that the
sinners in Los Angeles had Las Vegas and the New York Jews had Disneyland
in Florida, but there wasn't a proper place for a God-fearing Christian
family to go. He'd roll out the ground plans for Jesus Land: a family
theme park for Jesus: streets paved with gold where children dressed up
like angels, with little wings, would sell fishes and loaves; a Noah's Ark
with elephants and giraffes, and a 500 foot revolving illuminated Jesus,
that could be seen clear all the way to Atlanta! Lordy! And the farmers
would press their money into his blessed hands.  The fellow fled the
country with millions. It was all a scam.

The captain of the high school football team, who was our neighbor, and a
very nice kid, turned out to be gay; his Baptist family threw him out of
the house. He was found a year later, naked, dead, with his head in an gas
oven in a fleabag hotel. He was buried alone, which just goes to show you
what happens to sick people like that. Praise the Lord!

So... how to raise a kid in a religious world? If the little bastard has
any brains, he'll figure it out.

Actually, Burning Man doesn't really sound like it's gonna be what
raving is all about.  5 competing sound systems; so much
for unity.  The Burning Man organizers don't really want us
there (please move away another mile) and don't want to hear our
music (please point it away from us), but who cares?  

Let's face it, there will be 2 separate events out there; Burning Man
with its "Hell" theme, whatever that means, and the rave camp.  I'm
sure being there will be loads of fun, even spiritual.  Most people will
probably find what they are looking for.

Some people enjoy wearing daipers, others follow the crowd.  Each to 
their own.

Mmm...  I can't agree with you Neils.  PLUR is definitely a lofty ideal, but 
it fits in as a subset of the teachings of Jesus and of the Torah -- and 
don't get me wrong, I'm not spouting televangalist propaganda here.  As you 
yourself stated, Jesus' message was not about hate.  The Torah says 
something to the effect of "do not to others what you wouldn't want done to 
you" and Jesus paraphrased it with the "Golden Rule", "do unto others as you 
would have them do unto you".  In my way of thinking, if you're reaching for 
these truly lofty ideals, you've got PLUR covered.

I do believe in a higher being, but I dislike organized religion as much as 
the next guy.  I don't think putting the label "Christian", "Muslem", 
"Buddhist", etc.,  on someone automatically makes them a good person, and 
organized religion has been used throughout history to control people 
through their fears and ignorance.  But at the same time those labels don't 
make that person evil either.  Good intentioned and maybe a little weak, but 
not evil.

I thank the original poster for the information.  To his way of thinking, he 
was looking out for us.  I hope he won't be too offended if I don't find it 
particularly useful.  I didn't go to ComeUnity, but only because it just 
gets too darned crowded and hot.

 The URL I posted was "http://www.istorm.com/burningman" , and it comes right
off of an official Burning Man publication that is sitting next to my computer
as I type this. It may be that xlr8r has old info or got the URL phonetically

 Probably typical web access gremlins - try again. Don't forget that even when
you get to the page, their graphics may take awhile to download for viewing.

I always imagined that one important thing that raving is all about
is accepting that everyone and everything is different and letting
everything go free.  Which means that people who decide that Burning Man
isn't for them are no less important or mature than people who do go.
and shame on you for suggesting otherwise.

I would probably not enjoy a world that was Burning Man year round,
as much as I would not enjoy a world without a Burning Man.

Let everyone make their own choice.

 I called the Chateau de Boom info number a half-hour ago [ (415) 572-3250 ],
and got some old message from last week. Not a good sign for an event that is
supposed to have started two hours ago at noon. Anybody have any real info
on this event?

dude, I remember reading the *exact* same elitist bullshit last year. 
Something along the lines of only the cool kids were at Burning Man and 
everyone who went to Basics was a poser. someone can check me on this, 
but I even think it was a Tristan who posted it as well. Fuck that.

Just because you have the means and drive to make it does *not* make you 
a better person or a better human being. Not everybody has the same 
health or economic resourses that you may. 

instead of making condesending remarks, I'm thankful that I've got all my 
limbs intact, a good back, some cool friends, and a bit of cash for my trip. 
There are enough assholes in this world, you really don't need to add to 
their numbers.

I just wanted to relate some brief (you can start laughing now)
impressions of my experience at the Orbital / Underworld show in San
Francisco last night, with maybe a brief jog into discussing last
Friday's Chemical Brothers show.

I had a great time. I mean, a _really_ great time. I haven't danced this
hard since last October's great Friends and Family party. I was a fish on
a line all night long (aka: hooked), and was only briefly able to stop
dancing.  Everything about the show kept me moving, from the tight (if
overly treble-heavy) sound, the great lighting and video, and the
MUSIC. My goodness, the music.

So, specifics. I got to the show at around 9:00. Either Jonah Sharpe
didn't play live or he was the gent with the short-cropped hair dropping
the hard funked Detroit jams. I have to give that guy props. He may
always be riding the current trend (and make no mistake - the Detroit
sound is _very_ trendy amongst the SF techno elite right now. Big ups to
Jon Santos and Joe Rice for being two of the biggest perpetrators behind
this fashion conspiracy), but he does it with style and (dare I say it)
panache. I approved.

The DJ that followed him, though, completely knocked my shit right
out. From step one he started dropping the cold, dark techno jams that
give me body rushes and make me jerk spasmodically. Cool, precise mixes
of tons of material on Reload records (the choice of discerning darkcore
beat junkies everywhere), and a few notable surprises (of which I will
write more anon). He was exceptional (in my incredibly arrogant opinion
-- I imagine that many of my compatriots at the show were less than
thrilled. TOO BAD. I was happier than a pig in slop ;). I didn't know
they let DJs like that play in SF. Does anybody have any clue who he was?

Somewhere along there the DJ winked out and Orbital clambered up to take
the stage. As has been mentioned, one of the two Ps was wearing a laser
pointer strapped to his flashlight glasses. He did funny things with it
all night, but really, who gives a shit?

Orbital were all about THE MUSIC. The lights were great, the video was
just as good as I was led to expect, but oh dear, I got my ass rocked by
the sounds pounding their way away from the speakers. I mean, they
_started_ with my current favorite Orbital song ("Out There Somewhere")
and proceeded to methodically work their way through the high points of
their already very high-point-laden catalog. The reworks of "Choice" and
"Satan" were particularly tasty, although I thought my ears were going to
jump off and make a run for the hills during the more trebly bits of
"Satan". Ouch. And, of course, they played "Halcyon" with the magic
little Belinda Carlisle bit, which probably would have affected me more
profoundly had I not already been expecting it. They finished with a
encore consisting of "Planet of the Shapes" and one of the songs off of
_Snivilization_ that I never bothered to learn the name of (me? dislike
_Snivilization_? Whatever made you think that?). I think that otherwise
their set was probably note-for-note the same as the set they did in LA.

I personally could have handled a tiny bit more reworking of Orbital's
material. I could hear what they were up to sometimes, but I think a lot
of the subtler knob-twiddling got lost, and it was sort of odd knowing
exactly where all of the breaks were going to occur. It was life-
affirming hearing the artists that made me decide that I wanted to be a
DJ play their music REAL LOUD through a big sound system, but I thought
one of the positive things about techno was that it encouraged
experimentation, right?

One thing that their video made much more explicit was that Orbital is
unusually political for techno artists. The video made explicit many
points about consumer culture, the power of symbols in our culture, and
our overweening blindness in the face of rampant environmental
destruction. I don't think I'm just pulling that out of my butt,
either. Some of it would have been difficult to misinterpret (like all of
the shots of guys with chainsaws cutting down trees, f'rinstance).

In any case, Orbital were exactly as stunning as I expected them to be,
and I could have gotten down on my knees and wept at the beauty of it
all, but I was too busy dancing and whooping and generally making an ass
of myself to be bothered with such maudlin sentiment (those of you who
were there -- I was the tall geeklike person with the pony-tail, packer
boots, and the bright cheery Public Image Limited T shirt who kept
screaming and had the amateur obstacle course set up next to his feet).

After Orbital left the stage, That DJ started up again, spinning more
incredible hard traxxy mean-spirited techno stuff, including (drum roll
please) the Prodigy remix of Front 242's "Religion". Keep the crossover
indeed. Both I and the recently-transplanted Midwesterner I was with were
well pleased and grinning like idiots at the surprisingly good music.
Don't get me wrong -- there are a lot of really good technohead DJs in
San Francisco, but I prefer a harder / more abstract sound than what most
people here spin, and it was good to hear some of my favorite tunes spun
loud.

After an interminable break while the road crew tore down Orbital's
incredibly huge stage setup and set up Underworld's marginally less
complex array of gear, Messrs Smith, Hyde, and Emerson took to the stage,
looking cheery and happy to be there. At this point, I was standing up on
the balcony, so was able to see what they were doing on stage, which was
basically live mixing of presequenced material. Don't forget that Darren
Emerson is a DJ first and foremost. I kinda wondered why they bothered
doing it that way, considering that it would have been just as easy to
sequence everything, but as they warmed to what they were doing they got
more fluid with the mixing and it all made sense.

They had a buttload of gear up on stage which I could be a faithful
little trainspotter for y'all and detail, but I won't. Suffice it to say
that they had the usual array of trendy techno gear, and my partner in
crime for the evening spent a good chunk of time torturing himself,
trying to decide if the little Roland box mounted vertically in one of
their rackmount cases was a 303 or a 606. He finally decided that it was
a 606 when he saw Karl Hyde tweaking the cymbals on it late in the
show. I'd much earlier decided that it really wasn't worth worrying
about. I will say for thems that's curious that they were making very
prominent (and obnoxious) use of a Nord Lead throughout the evening, and
made me decide that I need one of those, monophonic or not. They
certainly do make some jaggedly analogesque noises. I'll also say that it
was cool that the only use that I saw for the guitar that Mr. Hyde was
hauling around stage with him was to act as the frequency input for the
vocoder on his voice. I thought that was a neato change of pace.

They played a very long set of very dancy material, which suited me just
fine, because I was, in fact, there to dance. I personally thought that
the vocals were a perfect counterpoint for the music, but I think that we
established long ago that there are those that like Underworld's vocals
and those that find them superfluous and annoying. I'm one of the former.
High points for me included a great, extended version of "Pearls Girl"
and a nicely-done encore of "Cowgirl" and "Rez" played back to
back. Hearing "Rez" was a very intensely nostalgic moment for me. If
Underworld deserves to be remembered for only one thing, it's definitely
that song.

What struck me most about Underworld was the enthusiasm they brought to
their set. While Orbital were content to bob their heads energetically
and occasionally confer with each other, Underworld were positively goofy
with energy. All three of them were bobbling enthusiastically around the
stage, with Karl and Darren pausing periodically to hype up the crowd.
When Karl wasn't singing, he was running around the stage like Moby or
something. It was fun to watch. And, of course, getting to see the Tomato
video was cool, although it was pretty obvious that the videos were
intended to be set to different songs than the ones that were currently
playing (a disadvantage when a) your song has words and b) those words
are integrated pretty heavily into the video).

What was remarkable to me was that in the past two years I've gone from
being a die-hard anti-fan of Underworld's to thinking that they are
positively the bees' knees. The vocals used to _really_ get on my nerves
and the music didn't do much for me, but once again, as they finished off
Rez I was just about fit to cry (and just about to fall over, too -- I
haven't danced that hard in a LOOONG time).

I hadn't really thought about what an important show this was to me until
I was there last night, but both of these bands have played pivotal roles
in my musical development. If it hadn't been for Orbital, I never would
have decided to indulge my musical fanatacism and become a DJ, and if it
hadn't been for the amazing singles that Underworld put out a couple
years ago ("Spoon [Deep Mix]" anyone?), I'd be a much different sounding DJ
now. It was a good night.

As a brief side note, I did go to see Chemical Brothers last Friday
night, and they did in fact go straight for the throat. Those kids do
_not_ fuck around. Bombastic beats, dark atmospheres, and light-show
imagery rife with images of death, destruction, and repression.
Considering how often their music is played by jolly la-di-da handbag
club DJs, it was surprising how much their set made me think of a
different kind of club altogether. Most excellent, especially the new
material, which wasn't quite so {hip|trip|crip}-hop oriented. After they
got into a groove they even seemed to be having fun. I think I saw one of
them smile once or twice.

They also had another wonderful opening DJ (this time DJ Terminator, who
played excellent hardstep jungle with good humor, despite the fact that
he was in the lighting booth up near the ceiling, had no monitor, and
therefore had absolutely no idea what his mixing sounded like).
Unfortunately, the [expletive deleted] Trocadero had its usual quirks,
this time being a dishwater-dull crowd and some very irritating sound
system problems. I'm sorry, but every time I see the name "Blasthaus" on
a flyer, I _know_ the party's going to be full of the sort of irritating
faux-hipsters (which I guess could be shortened by the omission of the
"faux-") guaranteed to set my teeth on edge. Maybe I'm an opinionated,
easily-irritated codger, though. Maybe.

I _was_ surprised at how friendly and cheerful the Trocadero doorfolk
were, I will admit. But now that I think about it, they've always been
nice to me, even when they've been firmly telling me (f'rinstance) that I
can't bring my pepper spray into the club. Maybe I just look close enough
to Goth to pass. Maybe I just relate well to shaven-head death-metal
headz. I shrug.

yrz,
ozymandias

onNow: sqpr - "tundra" / "dimotane co" (I have a feeling I like a
   completely different album than the rest of you, because tracks like
   these are peachy, but Mr. Jenkinson could drop his bass out the window
   and I'd still like the album just as much. In fact, the reason I like
   this album as much as I do has to do with its strong resemblance to
   works by *cough* Aphex Twin or *cough* *cough* Mu-Ziq more than any
   resemblance to the current crop of ambient jazz innovative listening
   progressive intelligent dolphin softstep jungle-meisters.)

Dear All;

	Ok, enough of you have asked me this ?; and I firmly believe there should be no secrets, plus I 
can't keepem; no doubt this will be my Nemisis. I'm also in much more of a secure position than I was a 
few months ago. So who is THX1138; some of you guessed it right of the bat, I think fellow hacker Wayne 
D. Coerria was the first person to find me, without asking, he's a good computer guy. 
THX1138@planet-jubip.com = Brian DarknEs^2, planet-jubip.com is my site on the net. Pronouced ja-bip, 
it's an east coast expression, and refers to a place in the middle of no where that everyone has been to 
at one point or another in their life. My B-day present to all of you who were wondering, remember Fred 
H. when he said, "no one knows you're a CAD in Cyberspace."

	The withholding of the knowledge of who I was, was strictly a personal decision at the time and 
was not designed in anyway to maliciously try and deceive anyone, just protect myself.

	But like I said I'm sure most of you knew this.

Peace & Love From Across Cyberspace

[ to sfraves list ]

 All the years I've posted stuff to mailists and newsgroups, I've never
managed to say something that was upsetting enough to get flamed about
( that I can remember ). So, it's ironic that it took my last few days
on SFRaves to get my first ever flame! 

 In reply to my request :
"...Well, if anyone could give me some suggestions one way or another 
( Go To BM/Don't Go To BM ), I'd appreciate it. Since this topic is only 
vaguely rave-related ( I know that at least one crew is going to hold a 
rave at BM ) , please email me with your suggestions - "

 ( Thanks to you folks who did reply ) The most unique reply came recently 
in a post to sfraves from Tristan/sandoz@sfsu.edu ( who may be the same
person who used to use Kevin Keiper's account ??? ): 
> 
> Anyone who does not like burning man and is not going to go when they 
> could has totally no idea as to what raving is all about and should, to 
> put it bluntly, go back home to mother as soon as possible.  At BUrning 
> man music and nature are one and that is what raving is all about.  NO 
> offence guy but do you still wear dypers?
> Tristan.

[ a question on terminology here: Have I been the recipient of what the
  british call "taking the piss" ? ]

 I've decided to treat this post as an attempt to convince me to go to BM.
I will assume that , deep down inside, maybe Tristan has my best interests
to heart. I don't have time for a detailed reply ( going out to enjoy the 
4th of July holiday ), but let me try to do short replies to the points being
made:

1. Being a true raver implies liking Burning Man: 
   * Assumes I don't like the idea of Burning Man. Quoting from a BM 
   newsletter - "...so is the festival itself a blank canvas for the 
   creative energy of its participants. The possibilities for self-expression 
   are nearly limitless." What I focus on in that quote are the words 
   "creative energy" and "self-expression".  Sounds good to me! Problem is
   I have personal issues that get in the way of me getting into the
   creative mindset in time for BM.
   * Implies that if I don't go, I'm not a true raver. If that's what 
   Tristan and others think, it's OK by me. Their opinion is not required
   to validate the raver portions of my life.  

2. A rave out on the playa is in nature:
   * From the descriptions, the Black Rock playa during the time of BM 
   is sterile; free of plants, animals , and ( I'm guessing here ) even 
   insect life. Probably has some hard-scrabble bacteria that come to life for 
   a few hours when it rains.  In my view, this makes the playa-as-nature idea 
   about as valid as SPAM-as-haute-cuisine. The world's biggest warehouse 
   rave with mud on the floor. 
   * How linked to exterior non-man nature is a spiritual path that's 
   dependant on the generator working reliably ?

3. Avoiding BM will prove me to be a sissy:
   * I guess this is an attempt to convince me to go by shaming me. That would 
   work if the folks who would think that I'm a sissy/wuss/wimp for not going
   were known to me, and were my friends. To take Tristan as an example, I'm 
   never met him , so have never formed a bond with him. His opinion of me 
   therefore doesn't matter in this case. 

 OOPS! Spent too much time on this. I think that's enough analysis for now!

the lad with the T shirt with the Russky and the megaphone on it. I'll
probably also be trying to dance painfully, too. Last night took a lot

Hey everybody!

Happy Independence Day!!!!!!!(Anyone see the movie?)

It's a beautiful day here in the south bay...so I hope everybody gets a 
chance to BBQ, relax, and enjoy the weather wherever you are.

I  also hope you're all planning to go to Freedom. I'd *love* to see a 
large contingency of SF Ravers there.....yeah! That would be beautiful! 
I don't know what I'll be wearing, But I have a backpack with blinking 
LEDS across it. Come say "Hi!" and pick up a laminate! 

oh and pleez, watch out for stray fireworks tonight! ;)

Hugs,

I wish I had the patience to reply to flames with as much insight as
Larry did!

As many of you know, Burning Man is not my cup-o-T, and I've never
felt any particular need to explain why.  It's one of those things
that I could never pinpoint in explainable terms, yet I really feel
it strongly.  I like reading about it and enjoy the descriptions of
those who've attended, who nearly universally have at least an
amazing time.  All the same . . .

I'm sorry but this has to be the _most_ immature and pointlessly
destructive post I have _ever_ seen on the list.  Why did you feel the
need to respond to Larry's sensitive description of his personal
thoughts and feelings like this?  I just don't get it...:(

In fact it makes me so mad that I don't even know what to say.

Get a life Tristan...

When returning to my room after a moonlight swim in Lake Anza, a message 
from Justin was waiting. 
	"Hey, you wanna go to promise?"
	"Sure"
So we were off, Justin, Sami, and I. We arrived at the location close to 
12:30 maybe, were let past the security gate, climbed the stairs, and 
entered a most incredible location for a party. After paying the ten 
bucks (twice as much as i had ever paid for a party in sf), we wandered 
into a room that looked very much like an apartment minus furnature, with 
a stereo set up and some non-ravey style music playing. We found the way 
down a staircase and entered a small room with many couches and 
blacklights and carpet and a little window through which a dj could be seen 
spinning dubby-triphoppy type stuff. I chilled to the music a bit, but 
found it a little to fast for chilling and a little to slow for dancing. 
However, my ears had picked up on another bass line, and I followed the 
sound to "the main room" equipped with larger sound and intelligent 
lighting and a trance-spinnin dj. Immediately I dropped into a trance of 
my own and swam to the front where the decks were set up and danced and 
inadvertently bumped off innocent bystanders who had wandered a little 
too close for saftey. When approching dehydration, I headed back up to 
the top floor where an automated ambient room had emerged, with a cd 
player playing chill-out tracks. Unlike most parties, where the sound of 
the main room usually drove through the walls in to the ambient room, now 
two soundsystems found their way into the chillout space, but that was 
ok. Eventually, the ambience stopped and a silly cd started up, which was 
not ok, so I journeyed back downstairs and bounced around the two other 
rooms. (btw, although the automated style of the chill space was unique, 
and ambient dj would have been much cooler...and not too hard to get, most
ambient dj's are used to playing for 8 hours for free:) Anyway, I'm not 
sure if I can describe in words how rad this party was. The main room 
featured trance and house while the other room specialized in slower 
triphop n' dub n' stuff. There were lots of big couches and sofas and 
someone would run in and out of the main room with a milk crate full of 
free bottled water for those dancing a little to hard!! The sound was 
perfect, not too loud which keep things safe from cops and earaches. The 
size of the space was perfect as well, and there were just the right 
number of people to fill it, with enough room for breathing and dancing 
(well, maybe the smaller room was a little too small..) I borrowed 
Justin's digital camera and ran around taking pictures of everyone and 
everything and blinding the innocent and unsuspecting with my flash. 
Several familiar faces were present, including a few with names (Justin, 
Sami, Sara, Todd, Jess, etc. etc.) This was obiviously a very spiritual 
event for many, with a statue of Ganesha in front of the DJ in the main 
room, and several girls were whearing a pottu on their forehead, in a 
bizarre display of neo-Hinduism (the pottu's were red..?) At around 
three'ish, they stopped charging money for admission. For me, the party 
really took off at around four or four-thirty. The music in the main room 
became much too housey so i drifted into the smaller room to discover 
incredible drum & bass radiating from the soundsystem, and fell head-first 
into a speaker for quite a long time. All the sets were good. The space was 
good. Everything was good. Perfect, even. This was my second 
Spacechildren party (the first being the Oribtal/Underworld show) and my 
second indoor party in sf(!) (the first being the Orbital/Underworld 
show. Somehow the parties I go to while in the bay area are _all_ 
outdoors. I guess all our midwest parties are inside). I thank everyone 
involved in throwing this party, and possibly I'll see you tonight at 
packabowl, and then later at freedom or the light campout. Take care

I suppose hipocracy is an unavoidable human issue, without it we would have
little reason to QUESTION OURSELVES AND OUR MOTIVES.

Niels Mayer also said:  >>I never talk about PLUR, except to make fun of it

which cannot be practiced...<<

Could the peace I can find within myself be an illusion,  is the love I have
for my brothers and sisters a front of some sort?  The unity we felt at the

give up the respect that I'm giving you and your opinion, and make rude and
derogartory comments about your beliefs?
Nope.

First off... Tristan, you're a CUNT 
 (I've been waiting to use that word for the right person). 
Congratulations... I have to look no further! 
 
It seems to me that you've not even listened to Larry or tried to
understand him at all.    
 
Larry was kind enough to open up and share with us his feelings about his
decision not to go to burning man and why he's decided to slow down in the
Rave scene.  There's nothing negative to say about that.  He didn't have to
tell us at all.  And for that reason, what Larry chose to share with us as
well as any other personal beliefs and opinions, should be respected. 
 
If you disagree with Larry's views and values, then that's YOUR fucking
problem.  His decision has NOTHING to do with you at all.  And most
definately does not deserve a IMMATURE, negative response like yours,
Tristan. 
 
You just seem too occupied with your elitist "True Raver" attitude.  Well,
let me give you a clue, Tristan.  You're no "True Raver" to me.  So far
your attidude contradicts just about everything I believe Raving is all
about. 
 
It's not about cutting up people for sharing what they're feeling.  It's
about respecting people for thery're feelings and providing support and
other positive or constuctive types of feedback.  If you don't agree with a
person's beliefs, and can't think of a decent way to let them know... then
keep it up your ass. 
 
>NO offence guy but do you still wear dypers? 
Maybe you should be asking this of yourself.  It seems to me your need
something down there to hold all your BULLSHIT.

At no similer event in the US will you find such a diversity of people 
then at burning man.  Everyone is there: from bikers to ravers.  Mothers 
go with there kids; ravers who haven't seen eachother for years meet up.  
People who last saw eachother at a party in India or Tailand then see 
eachother there.  Here, people take acid or E for the forst time, hear 
rave music for the first time.  And ravers get to meet other kinds of 
people that they would not normally meet.  In one of the most barren 
places on Earth we bring life and love in the form of the universal 
umbrella of love that all people like us (weather they like rave muisc or 
not) are under.  Remember: rave culture is a truely world wide phenomina 
and burning man (together with maybe the Rainbow gathering) is America's 
contribution to it (like Glastonbury festival in England and the techno 
fests in Europe).  In short, burning man is not some regular kiddy rave; 
it is a universal gathering of the clan.  And, to me, this is what raving 
is all about; it is why I got involved in the rave scene in the first 
place.  Is that not why everyone on this list is a raver too?
And this is why I get so angry when I hear people who won't go to it 
because they don't like to go a few day's without there creature 
comforts.  Eight months ago I went to a party in the dessrt in India to 
celebrate the lunar eclipse where there were a thousand people and there 
was not even a toilet let alone clean drinking water.  This fact did not 
in the slightest bother any of the people there so why is burning man 
such a problem for people?
  Yes, there is a lot of sound systems (that's what a techno fest is all 
about); the more the merrier I say.  But at burning man I have felt a 
unifying vibe that I have never felt at anyother event in America 
(although I used to feel it a lot whan I was doing parties in England) 
and I feel very sorry, as well as slightly confused, that other people on 
this list do not share these same sentiments.  Burning man serves to 
remind us that we are merely a part of the overall world-wide rave 
culture.  But oh yeah, I forgot, this is America where no-one likes the 
idea that  poples of other countries have got it going on even more, or 
at any rate as much, then they do.  Sad but true I'm afraid.  
I hope that everyone on this list comes to burning man where they will 
feel a vibe at a party that one can simply not find anywhere else at a 
party/festival in the US.  If people do not agree with the above words 
then I really can not understand why they are into raving in the first 
place. 
See ya all at burning man.
Tristan.

So, here in Chicago, it seems that every other event has DRC from San 
Francisco in the lineup. While I know I've never heard her spin in SF 
(quite possibly because SF is much more sophisticated than the House 
stuff they play here), I'm wondering if anybody's ever heard her play in 
SF.

I'm sorry but this has to be the _most_ immature and pointlessly
destructive post I have _ever_ seen on the list.  Why did you feel the
need to respond to Larry's sensitive description of his personal
thoughts and feelings like this?  I just don't get it...:(

In fact it makes me so mad that I don't even know what to say.

Get a life Tristan...

 Ranting and Raving (I guess :(...)

 He has some good points , that I'd like to give my reply to in a fuller
post soon. Before that , here's what I think is the most compelling part
of his follow-up posting -

It's too bad love seems to be in short supply on this list...  Your comment 
about dead Christians was pure vitriol, and is in complete opposition to the 
sentiment stated above.  I think you should reexamine your views on PLUR.  
If PLUR was all you ever managed, you'd probably be a better human being.

>Is that not why everyone on this list is a raver too?

To go to Burning Man?  Nope.  I got involved because of the love and 
acceptance I found, and the unifying drive to gather, to enjoy really good 
and hugely varied music, and especially to dance without all the hangups 
that go with dancing at your typical club.  Why did I stay involved?  
Because of the wonderful people I found once I got here.

>But at burning man I have felt a

Geez, I'm sorry that's the case.  I felt it at Sunset, the New Moon Rave, 
the Tahoe Trip(!), Tim's BBQ, Beautiful People, Chrysalis, Tribal Funk, 
etc., etc., etc.

Tristan, I haven't been raving for years, but along the short path I've 
taken thus far I've only found a very few people on this list I didn't care 
to meet and make friends of.  Until you find it within yourself to be more 
accepting and less exclusionary and judgemental, I'm afraid I have to number 
you among them.  And if you are typical of the kind of mentality I'd find at 
Burning Man, I really don't see the point in going.

Oh yeah, those red pottus come from the kit "Instant Brahmin -- just
add E-tabs" available at finer rave-shops throughout the bay area.

A few hours after becoming an instant brahmin, those rave girls are off
singing "love means never having to wear your sari". Very enlightening!

	Well made it out to my first Pack-a-Bowl last night and it was
loads of fun. I havent bowled in at least 6 or 7 years so it was weird.
But by the end of the night I had remeber the correct form and made a
couple of strikes and spares. Made some SFRavers: Renaud and Jess.
Man can Jess go offf. You got a lot of energy in you girl. Also
interesting to see some hardcore for the first time in SF. Loads of fun.
Mars spined later but I dont know what happened to that Mars vs Mystr-e
thing. Anyone know? In anycase see you all at Light.

Hey, hey!

I finally went to a night rave for the first time since I got back from 
Croatia.  Although it was at 1015 and the crowd wasn't my favorite one 
(having my butt grabbed more than once while walking around the dance 
floor isn't really what I expect at raves), I still had a great time and 
was happy to be back in SF.

I hang out with Leslie and she said hi to everybody.  I hope she gets an 
account soon :).

ComeUnity was fun - it was packed and it stayed that way till 4am (when I 
left).  The music was good and I had a great time dancing.  The only 
problem about ComeUnity is that the place is so packed that dancing with 
glow-sticks is more difficult than at some other places.  The outdoor 
area is great because you can always go out and cool off (which is 
necessary after some dancing).  Not having to go to work the next day was 
also great.  There should be more holidays on Thursday :))).

About BM - I am going because I saw a video from 2 years ago and it 
looked very interesting and all my friends cannot stop talking about it.  
I think it will be a fun experiance and I can't wait to go.  Only 2 
months :)).  

Have a great weekend and hope to see some of you at Freedom.

Also, I would just like to voice my opinion about flames on the list.  I 
think that is not necessary and I think everybody should just try to 
tolerate others a little bit more.  Why call each other names and try to 
hurt each others feelings?  I am really getting sick of reading posts 
on sfraves that show bitterenes of poeple towards life and others.  What 
about PLUR that everybody is talking about?  Maybe if there is something 
one doesn't agree with why not just e-mail the person rather than getting 
everybody involved?  I think I said enough about this...

Hugz,
Branka

  Well lets see? :

  1) BAD ASS computer graphics
  2) action packed from the beginning
  3) very important overall message  (no race but the human race)
  4) great acting, Will Smith = very funny, great comic relief from such 
     a tense movie
  5) see it on a big screen with THX or the best sound system you can find
  6) it's just as good as all the hype has made it seem

What is the difference between Tristan's comment about dead christians and
your dogmatic mouthing of PLUR. I will paraphrase a story that some say about
future "christians" who go back in a time machine and meet Jesus, only this time
it is the PLURist of the future who travel back to San Francisco in 1992 :)

PLURist: Look! Overthere! There's Will Hicks! And there's Malachy!!!
PLURIst: (Goes over to Mal) Hi! Malachy! Wow It's really you! We're totally
devoted tp PLUR and want you to know in the future, the whole civilization has
adopted PLUR as it's ground of being!

Malachy: Wow that's great! I hope it works.   (PLURist leave contented)

Mal turns to Will Hicks: PLUR? hmm. What's that?

The point in going is that there are other people in the world other then people
who see things your way that you need to learn to get along with and realize
that no matter how childish, or impropper their opinions may be, they are
still family
and deserve respect.  Tristan may be opinionated, I often don't agree with what
he says, but when the shit hits the fan or it's time to carry speakers or many
of the other places where PLUR becomes mere words and action speaks louder,
then the whole PLUR-pile, Tristan has been there. He's right, Burning Man
shows that our commonalities are greater then our differences. It is a
celebration of
what a tolerent open and yes anarchistic society can be even if it is only
for 5 days.
It is maybe the largest modern day example of a Temporary Autonomous Zone.

The Promise did live up to it's name dancing through Lucrino Andre's and
Ethan's sets...  The SFR family was in full force chatting and dancing with
each other.  Many happy vibesters bringing the energy level to an all time
high...
The free water was a blessing since, although there were several fans
running, the heat (in the main room) was enough for me to break a sweat.  The
main room was the only room I reallly stayed in, but that was enough.  
Wonderfully situated spot (hidden, but risk factor was ever present...).


Demigod @ Pac was amazing...  
Although I was quite spent from Promise, 3hrs sleep, and running from place
to place all day, I was still able to muster up some energy to throw down
some serious footwork... for at least a little while.  I couldn't stay
through the whole set tho' since the allure of sleep was far too inticeing. 
I did wake this morning with vicious hardcore beats thumping in my head, that
was an interesting experience.

Mystr-E had a OK set but I've heard better (seems he's @ a lull at the
time)...
Didn't hear MARS (although I wish I did, from the previous posts...).

Unfortunatlly I won't be @ Freedom ( i have a 'job' to do on Saturday) but
I've heard of a lil "event" a going-on which sounds VERY entiCing, Saturday
night...

So, hell, Have agggrEEEAAAATTTT weekend with you and yours,


"Dance with me.."

---Adam

PLUR and helping out aren't the same thing... I guess I agree with what you
say, but it's still pretty fucked up to publicly insult people becuase
their tastes in partying differ from yer own (I'm not going to BM either;
I'm not even vaguely interested in going... does that mean I'm not
"real?"). Yeah, maybe he's a cool guy and lends a hand when it's needed,
but on a list like this your words are the only thing alot of people know
about you, so you damn well better choose 'em carefully because that's what
people are gonna base their opinions on. Not everyone knows or cares that
he's a "nice guy" or that he likes to carry speakers if his contributions
to the list consist of unfunny namecalling and pretensious posing. Maybe he
had his toungue planted firmly in his cheek, but that really doesn't carry
through the e-mail medium.

ID4 Review (warning - kinda long winded)

I first got sucked into seeing this movie about 2 months ago when I saw an
extended-length teaser while at another film.  As soon as I saw the
sequence where the Empire State Building (and everything else) gets
leveled, I was hooked.  The special effects looked killer, and I kinda
liked the idea that most of the world gets destroyed before we manage to
overcome the slimy green guys (as opposed to the standard approach to these
things where there's "loads o' battle" but no real impact on the future of
society as we know it).

Thanks to the efforts of some fellow officemates, I was able to see ID4 on
premier night with only a minimum (read - 2 hours) of waiting.  Saw it at
the Coronet on Geary (it's a must for an action film -- killer sound, huge
screens, cupholders -- need I say more?) with 1000 or so of my closest
friends.  When the doors to the theater finally opened, people made a mad
dash to claim as many seats in the "prime real-estate" as possible.
Reminded me of that "land-grab" thing that they did in the Midwest in the
1800s.  Pretty crazy, but also pretty fun...makes going to a movie seem
alot more exciting than it usually does.

Before the movie started, I was talking to a guy who told me that the
director of ID4 was the same guy who did "Stargate".  If you ever saw
Stargate, then you'll understand why my heart sank upon hearing this fact
--- Stargate had a killer concept, great special effects, and a shit plot.
Somehow, they just couldn't pull all the elements together to make a
convincing film.  Anyhow, I was hoping that the director learned from his
last mistakes and had gotten his act together for this movie.

Well, he did, kinda...By this, I mean that it takes a good solid 1 1/2
hours (out of 2 1/2) before the whole plot goes to hell...and during that
time, I was entertained as hell.  Great ominous opening sequences (don't
want to give it all away, in case you see it).  Really killer
mass-destruction & carnage, lots of fire and flying bodies -- ya know -- a
generally good time...

But then it clicks in my head who the guy who is playing the President was
the "Han-Solo" character in "Space Balls"!  Bad acting in that movie was
funny -- but here it was just a little out of place IMHO.

And then there was Will Smith (Aka The Fresh Prince).  I was a little
skeptical about what kind of an action hero he'd make.  Well, he was funny
(with the lion's share of the good lines of the film), but not particularly
believable (way too damn hammy in the face of certain annihilation by evil
alien beings).

And then there were a couple of cheesey melodramatic scenes, intended to
shove the sheer tragedy of the entire situation down our throats, but I
just laughed through them, due to the Velveeta=AE factor.  Give me a little
credit next time, eh guys?

And then there were the plot holes.  In my opinion, it's kind of hard to
resolve a conflict involving overwhelming odds in 2 1/2 hours without
introducing some holes in the plot that you could drive a Mack truck
through.

Case in point:

Rag-tag caravan of RV's and trailers are screaming across the desert trying
to escape the destructive power of the alien spacecraft, who are primarily
concentrating on leveling every major city on the planet.  They come upon
Will Smith, who has recently been shot down and is hoofing it towards his
base.  They give him a ride.  When they get to the base, random
military-looking guy asks the group of RVers if any of them have any flying
experience at all.  A bunch raise their hands.  These people are quickly
whisked away where they then receive a 6 hour "crash course" (pun intended)
in piloting an F-18 Hornet!  Oh yeah, forgot to mention this -- they will
be carrying nuclear weapons to use on the aliens.  Well, the training is
sooooo good that these guys are able to successfully dogfight the green
dudes (while making standard dogfight wisecracks, of course).  Ugh.


But enough bashing of the film...I must admit that I was thoroughly
entertained for the duration of the film (even when it was by the utter
stupidity of the plot).  Special effects were amazing, the sound was great
(at the Coronet), and the cheering, screaming audience made it all the more
fun.  I'd even see it again.  But don't expect this to be the next Star
Wars -- it ain't.

If they are still running this movie around the clock (as they've been
doing since it's release) it'd make a perfect spin-down activity following
=46reedom on Sunday morning -- junk food for your brain for when you can't
handle anything stronger!!

Ok, that review was way too long.  Maybe I'm just bitter about having to
work when everyone else is enjoying that 4-day weekend....

C ya


Oliver

yeah, it was a good party! nice space in SF, got there about when ethan 
got behind the decks. there were plenty of spaces to chill out, even one 
outside in the cool air. a few SFR people i knew were there (hi paul, 
shawna, one of the erics, ethan, joe, tony and others).  paul brought some 
new 
kids into the rave scene and they seemed to enjoy themselves. its nice 
crossing paths with people at their first rave. the music was a nice 
change from what ive heard in SF lately, heard the hardest goa set from.. 
was that Surge after ethan? even a few records i have found their way 
onto the decks - which almost never happens in the land of house. after a 
few hours quite a few people took off, and i couldnt stop dancing in teh 
small room to the last dj playing - house??? thats two house sets this 
week that were irrisistable to this trance feind, the other being Deaks at 
the FM sun. nite. so thats my story, hope all is well with you all - have 
fun camping or at freedom or wherever youll be.

energy,
tom

Of course we've heard DRC spin in SF.  Her style has changed over the
years -- as many good DJs do.  In '93 when I first met her she was
spinning trancey house, but has moved more toward the German-style
hard trance over the last couple of years -- not the plop-plop kickdrum
style but the really hard and deep zone with the big open ambient breaks.
DRC has a great ear for interesting music outside the current favorite
fashion, and her tapes are consistently some of the best from SF.  

I admit to some bias here, because she's a Northwest native (I live in
Portland) and a really good friend.  And as anyone who's shopped at BPM
knows she's always knowledgeable and helpful.  If you think this is a
plug, so be it :-)

I know she's getting a good response from the Midwest and Texas since
she's always flying out there to play.  So if she's in your area -- go!

triple bad ass sets from Ethan and Solar!

Dear All;

	Ya know, you can teach an old putty tat new tricks. I was ay an awesome party last night put on 
my the Dimension seven people. Thanks for opening up your space Crystal, AJ, Erin, Cleo, Dusty and 
everyone elses whose names I'm forgetting. I hope you guys enjoyed the party favors, I know I did. You 
guys made it a great B-Day for me, not too crowded, not too hot, it was just right.

	Lastnight, I didn't have access to my regular rave fuild diet of Ice Tea(sugar water, & caffiene) 

hmmm. hmmmm. good. So I just drank water all night long, this morning I woke up after a very sound sleep, 

feeling refreshed and vibratent. Water, water, water, is a good thing as long as it's not too much, 
because too much will KILL YOU. In addition, it was my B-Day lastnight and believe me I went all out.

	Anyway I feel great, & off to do some clothes shopping, what else is new, later folks.

Peace & Love From Across Cyberspace
aka Brian DarknEs^2

Subject: Benefit for John Howard (SF)

Hello all,

This is Little T letting u all know that I am planning a benefit show for
John Howard.  I am lucky enough to call myself a good friend of his and have
been watching him limp around on his bad leg for over a year now, although
he has been for the past 8 years.  When John was a 17 year old skater he
screwed up his leg really bad and hasnt been able to get the $8000 surgery
done on it to fix it yet.  If he doesnt get it done soon he will be in
deeeeeeeep trouble.  Soooo, I am trying to organize a party for him in
Seattle (for the simple fact that AMerican money is better than CAnadian).
THis will take place on Saturday September 7th.  I am asking all Seattle
promoters and grooovers to please be simpathetic and let me know if they are
planning a show on that date so that I can try to move my date if need be.
I am NOT doing this show for profit and ALL the proceeds are going to him
for his surgery.  The DJ's who will be playing for free and helping organize
the party are:

Markem (VAN)
Buck   (SF)
Minute Maid (VAN)
Quest  (SEA)
Rein   (SEA)
Little T  (VAN)
Mike Stevens (PORT)
and John Howard (SF)

John does not know about this, all i have told him is to keep this date open
so dont be calling him up and telling him.  I would really apreiciate your
help with this so if u have any ideas or spaces u know of who whould give me
a fair price could u e-mail me.  I also need help promoting for the simple
reason that i live in Vancouver and am usually out of town most weekends.

THank you for your support

Love


Little T

Ah, now I see why he wants to go.  I don't know, I think he's considered family
here.  He doesn't need to go all the way to BM just to get respect.  And you
don't need to drive xx hours and camp out to find people with opinions
different than your own and realize that you need to get along with them.

I don't know.  Helping people out whom you feel have the same ideals (defined by
being at Burning Man) as you is indeed admirable.  But this whole PLUR thing
(which to be honest I haven't completely subscribed to yet - still too cynical,
I guess) seems to be about treating others outside of your group the same way,
and if that is the case I don't see it at work here.  Sure there may be all
types at Burning Man, but he's defined his groups as those that go, and those
that don't, then put himself in the first, and castigated the latter.  

	This all reminds me of a debate on the Misfits list.  There's a running
thread that flares up every once in a while about which bands/subscribers
are/aren't punk.  It gets really pathetic, too.  The funny thing is, the people
who yell the loudest about how punk they are are usually the ones who have
little clue and are just trying to lock themselves into an easily recognized
identity to hide from the fear of decision-making and personal evolution.  I
wonder if that is the case with some of us on the list.
	The greatest part about it is that the Misfits weren't/aren't even a
punk band (by their own definition), but the "Punker than thou" types are always
trying to classify them as a punk band to fit them into their own little
ideology.

	I hope the above admission doesn't preclude me from ever being a
"raver" (I also love old Iron Maiden!  Ahhh!)  Wouldn't matter, of course.  To
paraphrase YHWH (sp?)in the Jewish Bible, responding to "Who are you?"...
"I am".

It beats working,

I think that this is relevant to the readers of this list!

Over the past few years I have been fortunate to have as my friends, many 
people who call themselves "ravers".. I recently discovered something 
somewhat disturbing about them that I thought I should share with the group!

I have reason to believe that many of the members of this group are Aliens!

BE CAREFUL, YOU NEVER KNOW WHO TO TRUST!

Your best friend could be from another universe...

I take offense to your message. Just because some are different from 
you, (or as you say: Alien) it does not mean they are not trustworthy. 
One's trust may only be questioned if one is asked "Are you human?" and 
the reply is "Yes". In western society, Aliens are the target of many 
unjustified accusations. A common example is the movie "Independence 
Day". The advertisements (and the movie as well, i suppose) depict 
unfriendly Aliens with evil aspirations. Not only is this unfounded, it 
is a blatent lie used to cover for one's insecurity for that which one 
does not understand. I know for a fact that the director of Independence 
Day never counsulted any non-human entity before making the movie.

Be suspicious of those who answer "yes" to the question "Are you human?" 
Parhaps they are, but even some of the most devout Jews chose to hide 
their faith and identity from the Nazis during the Holocaust. And some do 
not know the truth about their identity. Evolution is a very slow and 
gradual process. A raver may be physically indestinguishable from a 
"normal" human, although a raver's "humanity" may be debatable. 

> Your best friend could be from another universe...
Do not fear that which you do not understand.

Wow, I am really put on the floor by what I have read on this list.  I have
known about the sfrave list for about a year, when I started getting into
raves and such, but I never really had the time to be able to read all the
mail.  This summer I figured I would get a chance to read the mail and find
out more info on raves around Northern California, since I have more time to
go.  Maybe it is not my place to say what I am going to say, because I have
just put my name in on the list, but it stuns me to see how much negative
mail is here.  I have always thought of people who attend raves to be those
few people in society who could accept the thoughts of others.  I did not
think that they would be telling others that they should go home if they do
not attend a certain rave, or complaining about imposing beliefs upon others.
 What has happened?

My best friend, who introduced me to raves (she posted as "Annie", maybe you
all remember her) is the most loving person. Through her I have met some of
the best people at raves and on my own as well, but this bunch of letter does
not seem to be what is idea behind raves.  Do we not attend raves because we
love the music that is spun?  Are we not there because we love the music, not
because we are there to say we went?  It seems to me that where one person
goes to do what that person wants to do is up to them.  It does not make them
any kind of person. other than someone who knows what they want to do.  I do
not understand what is going on here.  Please someone tell me that is
different at other times and that this is just a time when there is a lot of
negative energy circulating.

Neither did the director of E.T.  I'm assuming the above was written tongue-in-
cheek, so I won't say more.

Ok, so another scant record buying week, Man, I've really got to learn to
conserve $$ a little better. Anyhows, I'm really psyched on what I bought.
Same type of stuff as last week.


Domestic:

Robert Hood: The vision, Metroplex

Right, so this record isn't new, but I held off on buying it until now.
Four tracks of the classic '95 Hood sound. One track definately reminds me
of Minimal Nation. The standout is the b-side #1 track entitled Detroit:One
Circle. This is a wicked deep jam which has been slithering it's way into
my dream and effecting my subconcious in ways I won't understand until
later. It starts off with a nice blippy synth line and then opens up with a
deep base kick.Then the sample "DETROIT" starts looping and you just lose
it...add some double time hi-hats and it's all over. Massive.

Import

DJ Jean-Pierre and DJ Groovehead, XS-03

Another enigma. I assume this is an x-Trax product. There's no title or
date. "Definition from the soul" is enscribed on the clear plastic.
Anyhows, this is a really really solid plate. It's not often I buy import
acidhouse/acid/whatever, but I was blown away by the care put into this.
Both trax are pretty fast with nice low base kicks (but not low enough to
be 'ardcore) and have interesting snares and hi-hats. Both tracks are also
groovy as phuck and have enchanting detroit-ish strings looping throughout.
Close your eyes and let the drone take you away...

Jungle

Nightmares on Wax: Still Smokin II- Warp Records

I bought the first one last week, so I lose originality for buying pt.2.
but after you hear the DJ Food remix of Dread Overboard (and you WILL hear
it), you really won't care. This is a 1st rate remix from the first rate
trip/hip-hop/jazz/funk MASTER as of late. The tune starts off inna mellow
hip-hop stylee some beautiful organ and flute lines float somewhere above
the clouds. There's a really nice break with just a pulsating heart beat,
and then the number explodes into a jazzy drum'n bass line which took my
breath away. There's also a Rae and Christian hip-hop mix and an
instrumental jungle version of stars. With music like this...who needs
drugs? (and who has the money...*grin*).

Hi All!

 Sometimes my intial reaction to flame posts is the same as Branka's 
here. Sometimes, however, it seems neccessary and good for people to 
honestly communicate and then to get feedback from their community ( and 
other comm unity's ;) on what they expressed. This is one factor that 
gives me hope for the heathy survival of the human race; our increased 
ability to communicate.


Peace all

Fear is a HUMAN emotion and can cut both ways. Those that cherise and 
respect their humanity usually find a graceful way to live with their 
fear ( as well as their other emotions ).

hello everyone, whether you be negative, positive, nice, evil, condemning,
etc-

i joined sfraves just about 1 year ago.  jake reichert dragged me in,
kicking in screaming, and i was converted instantly by the love i felt. 
then, i made the promise to myself:

IF RAVING EVER INTERFERES WITH MY LIFE AS A CATHOLIC, I NEED TO LEAVE.

i made that promise then, and i must hold to it.

recently, there have been a rash of postings that have so offended and
hurt me to my personal core, that i am speechless.  i have seen phrases like:
1)i dislike organized religion like the next guy
2)dead christians
3)--and numerous other comments displaying a basic intollerance of
christianity.

i understand that many people have issues with christianity; so do i! as a
practicing church musician who also happens to be bisexual, that can lend
itself to some problems.  i choose to be there, and i expected the support
of those in my communities (friends, family, sfraves) to be there behind
me.  the recent underhanded comments of a few ravers have appaled me and
made me realize the blatant lack of support.

[note: matt goes away and cries for a few minutes, so disturbed about the
comments he has heard recently].

i came into the rave scene, and loved it.  i, for the first time,
felt
part of a community.  i thought, they won't mind that i'm a practicing
catholic, and they sure as hell won't make comments that will make me feel
lesser as a person.

boy, was i wrong!  

thank you to all those who said things like:
1)plur, christianity, buddhism, etc, are all paths to one truth
2)eric petersen's "i love you" posts

good bye, all.  thanks to the wonderful people i have met:
shawna
the entire tahoe-trip crew
the 4'th street crew (trish, bekka, kc, etc)
there are many others that i have met and loved, but i'm a bit too choked
up to remember them now.  thank you.

feel free to write, feel free to say hi, but keep your anti-christian
comments to yourself.

i love you all dearly-

matt lanier

When ever I go to a party, I end up asking every person I meet if they're an 
SF Raver.  I was thinking that it would be much easier if SF Ravers wore 
a sticker on their shirts that said that they are SF Ravers.  You know, 
like the "Hello my name is..." stickers, but "Hello, I'm an SF Raver".  
Putting your name on your sticker would make life a lot easier, because that
 way when you run into somebody that you met earlier, they will actually 
remember your name.  I know that I always forget names, so it would help 
me a great deal.  To take this one step further, I'm willing to design a 
standard sticker with the SFR Logo on it and have a place for you name if 
people want to add it.  Mail me back if any one has any comments, 
questions, or suggistions on how to go about doing this.  Also mail me 
back and tell me your opinions on this idea.  

PLLLLLLLLLLLLLLUR, isn't Love great.

I have to say that ID4 was the most AP (Action Packed) movie I've seen 
this year, or the last couple of years for that matter.  The plot had a 
few inconsistancies and the alians ability to communacate with the humans 
was kind of a cop-out to explain why the alians were doing what they were 
doing, but over all, I thought is was a epic movie.  It's one of the few 
movies that I thought was worth $7.  The best thing about the movie was 
the computer animation, it has to be seen to believe.

Sorry guys I do have to defend this movie.




>it takes a good solid 1 1/2

The only problem with the plot was in the beginning when they tried to throw
a romance angle into an action movie. It slowed down the otherwise fast paced
story line. However after they split up the movie returned to it's original
pace.

By what do you rate an actor?

Have you ever seen Bad Boys? One of the great action movies of the decade and
an excellent job by WILL SMITH. Yes the directing was excellent (by Michael
Bay, The Rock) also. However Smith proved he was an actor.

Gee I wouldn't have noticed.

Perhaps you should spend more time to try thinking for yourself and not try
to be the next Siskel and Ebert. Maybe you should try going to movies for
enjoyment instead of to practice your cynicism. They are a break from reality
not a prediction of a future.

My roomates and I live above a storefront that has been converted into a
practice space for a band, and we intend to have occasional shows. The
space is pretty large, also suitable for artists. The front of our space is
presently being painted by the infamaous SF graffiti artist Twist.
The bedroom available is kinda small, but but the living room can be used
for a deskspace and such. The kitchen is pretty big. Extremely close to
Bart. $300.00 a month, utilities not included.
I'm really the only "raver" of the bunch, but we're (3 males) all pretty
likeable, creative people.

OK, I made the first set, some just have the day SFR logo and underneath 
it, it say's SFRaves.  I took the logo directly off the web page, so if 
there is any copyright issues, please let me know.  The second set of 
stickers have the same logo, but on the right side of it there's blank 
space for you to put your name.  I'll be at the Freedom rave giving these 
out to any SFRavers who ask.  Now I bet nobody can guess how to identify 
me?  Yes I'll be wearing my own sticker with my name on it (Matt Abrams).
See all of ya (that are going, of course) there.

what faith you hold.  

Forget all the bad vibe if you can.  I too am frequently distressed by the
number of ppl in the rave scene who are astoundingly narrow-minded and
vituperative.  I find that most people who attack another's faith do so
because they are insecure in their own beliefs.  For a culture that is
supposed to be so open, accepting and loving, i find there are a LOT of
ravers who simply have no clue.

HOWEVER!  i also have found some of the most amazing, astonishing,
gorgeous, vibrant, open, loving, giving, marvelous, groovealicious people 
thtat have ever existed on the planet.  You guys keep my delight in 
raving fresh and joyful.

PLUR should be a way of life, not just an acronym.

[ to sfraves list ]

[ yeah, Larry's stiiillll hanging around! You'll get rid of me come 
  next week Wed ( Unsubscribing Day ) ]

 After reading Dalshire and Branka's posts, and especially Matt Lanier's
post , I thought I'd express some of my opinions about SFRaves I've developed
over the years . Please excuse the rambling -

1. SFRaves is composed of a subset of humanity, with all the variety 
   and faults of the species. ( any Extraterrestrial-Americans on SFRaves 
   are trying to pass as human, so my point still applies in this case ) 
 
2. There is no monolithic SFRaves mindset - some folks have strong 
   opinions about spiritual/religious beliefs that are at odds with others. 
   Some include religious tolerance in PLUR, some feel raving as a refuge 
   away from religion(s), some , like Matt, try to resolve the spiritual
   power of raving to their religious beliefs. 

3. To save on heartache, try considering SFRaves as a news medium for
   awhile, not the meeting place of a community. 

 I've been on SFRaves since summer of 1992. I have learned that, like any
group of people put together by a common interest that doesn't require
strictly adhered membership rules ( raving, DeadHeads, science
fiction fandom ), the common interest doesn't guarantee a "party line"
or 100% adherence to any common philosophy or code of manners. Given
enough variety, it doesn't even guarantee shared opinions related to the 
common interest ( "DJ # vs DJ *", spirituality and raving vs religion and 
raving, this crew vs that crew vs the cops, etc).

(  I have come to rely less on the idea of an SFRaves "community" and more 
on a "circle of friends". I have applied this idea to my time subscribed to 
SFRaves , and I'm hoping that the friends I made via SFRaves will stay in 
touch with me when I unsubscr*be next week. ) 

4. The longer subscribed to SFRaves, the more posts you will read, and
 the more familiar you will be with people's personalities. You will
 develop a "calibration" that you can apply to any future posts they make. 

 ( That's why Tristan's original short sharp Burning Man post didn't really
   bother me as much as it did some others. It was in the style of his older
   posts - "in character" )

Finally -

5.  Take the sometimes disconcerting or disturbing beliefs that may be 
 expressed here in the same manner as if you read it in the "letters 
 to the editor" pages of the daily newspaper [ or, worst case situation, 
 as if you had accidently tuned in some bizarre and scatalogical talk 
 show on your radio ]. 


 Hope these hints help!

>recently, there have been a rash of postings that have so offended and
>hurt me to my personal core, that i am speechless.  i have seen phrases like:
>1)i dislike organized religion like the next guy

i think the beef with organized religion is that in general, it makes people
all think the same way about a certain religion (i.e. christianity) instead
of being an individual about it and interpreting it for themselves. not that
all people cannot interpret it for themselves, but that the majority of
people i have known cannot. that is the sad part for me, that people look to
their minister (or whomever) for interpretation, rather than their own
hearts and minds.
i'm all for chistianity, if it is truly about the christian ideals.
however, i do dislike the current right-wing reactionary biased religious
types who have so much to say in the media these days. obviously, most (i
hope) christians do not fall into this category, so i surely won't try and
judge all christians by this vocal minority.
anyway, i see two different things: christianity as an organized religion,
and christianity as a personal philosophy. anyone who thinks for themselves
fits into the second category and i am happy for. but i do have a problem
with those "sheep" who just follow along in someone else's footsteps without
thinking for themselves.

my only real complaint about christianity is that it seems to promote the
afterlife over our current life - saying that we should be good in order to
attain eternal happiness, instead of being good for the sake of being good
and leading a fulfilling life. oh well.

>2)dead christians
well, i'm not a christian and this offended me. so you aren't alone.
i'm not sure if i was offended as much as sickened by the overt display of
ignorance and intolerance. tristan (an others) don't seem to believe in
plur. like the acronym or not, what it is about is realizing that we are all
together on earth, and realizing that the best possible life for everyone is
attained by caring for others as much as ourselves. yes, being an individual
is good, but you must always realize that no matter where you go you are
always part of humanity.

>3)--and numerous other comments displaying a basic intollerance of
>christianity.
again, i should hope the problem is with the organized "preach to the
masses" approach of christianity, not the individual approach.

>1)plur, christianity, buddhism, etc, are all paths to one truth
i'll certainly agree here. not that there is "one truth", but that any
philosophy that gives you a way to live and comes from inside you, is the
ideal. truth can be internal or external, but the realization of it (or part
of it) must come from within.

anyway matt, i hope you don't view this as more christian-bashing, as that
is certainly not my intent. good luck.

and to all others: i hope everyone can remember to be civil and intelligent
with their discussions, and i hope that everyone can find a philosophy that
runs as deep at matt's obviously does.

Stickers would seem to be a waste.  You would have to throw them away after
every time you went to a rave.  A better idea (and one which has been done
for SFRaves in the past) is to create a laminated card that could be worn.
 This way there is no waste involved.  Each person would only need one and it
could be worn on some part of their body.  I do not know exactly who it was
that did this in the past, all I know is that my friend picked one up from
the guy who made them at the Renaissance Faire that went on in Black Pointe
Forest.  Would this be a feasible idea?

Thank you to everyone who told me the truth.  I was very troubled by what I
was reading.  It had seemed that the list had become crazy, but now I
understand.  I am sorry to anyone that felt offended by me judging everybody
as a whole.  I did not mean to and I will not do it again.  I am just happy
that there are those people who care enough to let me know that everything is
not how I had pictured it.  Thank you all again.

Peace, love and happiness...

The advantage of stickers is that it's easy to get one with your name on 
it.

There is nothing wasteful about somebody taking the initiative to 
execute a creative idea for the benefit of everybody.

Wow.  I think... <nudges thread with toe>... I think it's dead...  
<nudge, nudge>  Yup.  It was pretty stupid anyway, but now it's more than

     To everybody involved with the flame war re: Come Unity, thank you.  
     The whole argument made Promise seem more appealing, so I went (alone 
     even).  Best I've ever been to (only my third) VIBE VIBE VIBE.  I look 
     forward to seeing you all at Freedom.
     
     ... Who was that drum&bass dj around 4:00am at the second room?! ...
     
     Thank you:
     John with the Curious George shirt,
     Whoever had them Tic Tacs,
     Everybody who spun,
     The girl with the Elmo,
     The entire chill room,
     Just plain everybody dammit,
     The people I met from San Jose (ride to Freedom?;) who called me Adam,
     The scene,
     The promoters of that thing,
     And the ever most awesome city of San Francisco...
     
     Peace Peace Peace.

E-mail is wonderful don't get me wrong and the list definitely has it's place
in the Scene. But I must remind people that that the list is a list, it may be
about raving but to talk about it and to do/be it/throw it/dance it are too 
completely different animals.  People put too much emphasis on what a person
says
on the list, they should get out and meet people and then form an opinion.
TRistan may have his ways and like many people who get behind a terminal their
alter ego comes out.  Bersides I didn't say he's a "nice guy", I said he's
there for the Scene where it counts, if it we;re for people like tristan, there
wouldn't be anything for the 500 or so people to gobble about on a daily basis.

Hey all,

Sorry this review is a little late but I been caught up in all the
independence celebrations.  I hadn't been to a party since BASICS, mostly
because I was getting turned off by the greedy promoter attitudes at many
parties and I wasn't willing to spend 20 bucks for a halfass time... well
Promise reintroduced me to the reasons I loved to rave- great music, great
people, and interesting venues.

I'm sure everyone's read about the location on mission already but I just
wanted to add that it seemed comfortable, like a house party, very
inviting, colorful and exciting.  Many rooms, hallways, and interesting art
work.  Anyone see the bugs crawling into the face on the bathroom wall?
anyways I loved all the music.  Memorable dj's Ethan man he got me movin',
Henrick - very rythmic and great mixing, Ryde (NY) was great (anyone hear
him at Organic?), Solar - Yeah, and all the others fit the mood just
perfectly.  I hadn't heard drum and bass/jungle spun in a while and it was
great to hear it again.

Many great people, what's up Shawna M., and to the many others who I don't
remember.  I did more dancing than socalizing though cuz I couldn't stay
away from the main room.  i think I'm always like that.  I do more dancing
than socalizing at party because I come for the music first and people come
second.  Sorry guys.

Well see ya at FREEEEEEEDDDDOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will have a tent set up with a flag of some sort and a tiki torch outside
the tent.  I'm wearing my old and new laminate and I will have a few
glowsticks...I'm bringing a watermelon cuz we didn't eat it at the BBQ on
the 4th.  I'll probably b wearing blue jeans with some white shirt.  Come
and say hi if ya see me or my tent.  OOOHH yeah it's kidee's birthday today
too and she'll be hangin' with me too some where, along with a bunch of
other new and old friends.  See ya all there..

While I know I've never heard her spin in SF
>(quite possibly because SF is much more sophisticated than the House
>stuff they play here), I'm wondering if anybody's ever heard her play in
>SF.

I have heard DRC spin plenty o times and I LOVE her stuff.  (Though I am
realizing I have not heard her spin this year (1996) as I am "out of
circulation" at the moment).  She manages somewhow to keep it hard without
being completely electronic.  It is this "natural" element in her stuff
which is why she is one of my favs.  Of course, if you like the total
non-reality experience of really hard trance/techno, then maybe she might
not be to your liking.

Wondering what others think of DRC....

Hello people, I'm am long time reader of sfraves but I don't post very
often... I just wanted to know if anyone felt kind enough, and had enough
space in their car, to give me a ride to freedom to catch the sunset (at
around 7 pm)...
All o' my  friends are on vacation so I guess I'll have to go at this alone...
I'll contribute some $$$ for gas if it's cool...

Love,

Be sure to look for Knucklehead, Marcy and I at FREEDOM

We'll be taping the party so if you don't know what we look like we're the
silly people changing DAT tapes all evening/night/morning in both the
outdoor DJ area and the ambient tent.

the info line for FREEDOM is 415-905-9629 and it starts at 7:00pm

Well... my ride-to-freedom options are dwindling fast... can anyone with

conversation, free tupperware samples, or whatever...

if you can help out, give MIKE a call at 408.264.6604... I probably won't
check my e-mail again today.

anyway, I know there's a bunch of you I've been meaning to meet, so here's

polo shirt, and a green backpack with an Friends and Family patch, an Alien

Hi All!
 I must humbly and ashamedly apologise for a post that I made. In 
response to the Tristan post below;



>  On Fri, 5 Jul 1996, TRISTAN BERNARD BLAUG wrote:
>  The only good Christain is a dead one.

I wrote;


> Your fucked up intolerant attiude is EXACTLY like a christians.

which is a prime example of cognitive dissonance at work. I was 
essientially saying that ALL Christians are the same and they all think 
alike. WRONGO BUDDY BOY! Christians seem to be just like any other group 
of people; some "good", some "bad", most pretty average folks (meaning a 
mixture of "good" and "bad" qualities). I've meet Christians that I would 
be proud to call my friend. I've meet some that scare me to death. 
Unfortunately I had just come from a 4th of July Christian event (I work 
with a stage lighting company that provided lights) and part of that 
event was a lip synched production crying for more God in school and 
government. The biggest problem I had was that instead of God the play was 
pushing conservative values (big anti-same sex marriages bit with a lot 
of hate, anger and intolerence thrown around).
 
 So anyway I had a bit of a one sided view on this situation. My real 
perspective is that I do not know how this world and universe is put 
together and that any group that claims they do is arrogant in their 
assumption(s) but they may be right. And that includes my view on how the 
world operates. Maybe everyone is right and we do not live in a universe 
but a multiverse.
 
 Oh yeah, apologies for misspelling `attitude'.


Peace all

This is completely non-rave-related -- I need some quick tech info.  I just 
bought a 2gig drive.  My AMI BIOS sees it and did the low-level format and 
the interleaving.  DOS does not see the whole drive though.  FDISK thinks 
there's only 504 megs on it, and will only work with that much of the drive. 
 Can anyone give me a heads up on what's going on?

 I agree with you 100% on your 6 points, however didn't you think that
the movie developed too slowly?

Hey people, some of you might disagree, but I think a motocross track (MX
track) is not a cool place for a rave. I've raced there a bunch of times and
never would I even think of dancing???? I didn't like it how the main dance
place was in the middle of the oval track and the rocks, dirt, dust, and bugs
made it really annoying to dance. Also, someone put some kind of wierd drug
on a button in my water bottle. It made my girlfriend wired, and tasted like
metallic bitter like stuff. But I don't see how you'd get crank on a button
if you had too. 
      I was trying to dance and every couple moves, I'd slip into a little
hole or one of the whatever many million people would walk into me or go in
my way. In doors was a little better with the same jungle music constantly
playing. Not much room to do much in there either and the uneven carpeting
made is pretty hard not to trip and fall on my face. Though I didn't dance
much cuz of all the people.

       So I pretty much think that it was a huge ass waste of money for what
I got out of it. Give me your opinion. I think the bigger commercial raves
suck. I had waaaaaaaaaaaaaay more fun at independance friday. For any
sfravers out there , I was the dork with a black shirt, khakis, and white
gloves on dancing by the front right black light (Right front black light
family!!!). 
         
       To RLunatic:::: Hey buddy, hope you had fun. I'm looking forward to
seeing you again cuz It's pretty cool to actually know people from the cpu
world and put them together in rreal life. Oh. . . my girlfriend thinks that
you're pretty damn good looking. Just so you know.

       To the right front speaker family::::: I went to the right front
speaker to see if I could meet any of you people but I had no clue what any
of you looked like. I asked some chick if she was part of the right front
speaker family and she looked at me like I was crazy. Don't blame her though,
I would if I was her. Tell me what you people look like so I can meet up with
ya and boogie down.

       Love ya all (and thats not just the "E" talkin)

Aryck      

       Also, why didnt someone tell me that freedom was at sandhill ranch, I
would have brought my bike and done some nac nac's off the doubles.. . .


        See ya again.And again, and again, and if anyone wants to go dancin
some time, feel free to call me cuz If I have money, then I'd love to go.
Just ignore my Answering machine message and leave a message. (510)276-3743.

 You are right there is nothing wasteful about somebody coming up with a
creative idea.  I am just interested in trying not to cause waste in our
environment and this is what I meant by waste.  I believe most heartedly in
creativity, it is the essence of our world.  It just seems to me that
stickers can only be used once and in a world where we all must try to do our
part to help out the environment, wouldn't it be somewhat better to have
something that can be reused many times?

How about laminates with a white area so you could write your name with a 
dry erase marker or permanent pen and it would be readable but no one 
would have to go the trouble of making each laminate personalized, which 
might take awhile.

Well, this party went off! I can understand ARYCK's opinion about this 
rave. It was tooo damn dirty!! Dust and dirt everywhere you went.. My 
black shoes and pants turned YELLOW!! Haha!

This has to be one of the best parties I've been to! (Besides Harmony's 
BP) =)~  This party was good  because of the people I hung around the 
whole night!! Brenden, Todd, Leslie, Terry, Ian, Phelps, -MIKE M-, 
Umm... my mind is sorta spaced out right now so if I forgot anybody 
just chew me out.. and some people I met but didn't get to hang 
around.. Sherry, Sarah, Austin, oh man... too many people to name..

Music was great! VIBE was EXCELLENT! Temperature was PERFECT!!! Maye if 
the ground was paved it would have been much better!! 

Anyways... time to go to work all spun out! yeeeeheeeee!!!!

Live it, love it, rave it!!!

There was a time when I knew all this crap...
Is your disk controller IDE?  I think IDE can only handle drives up
to 5xx megs (I thought it was 540, though).  If that is the case, you may need
a new EIDE controller card (cheap). EIDE can handle a 2gig drive; it's only been
around for a couple of years, so if yours is older, it's probably IDE).  Of
course if your drive/controller card are SCSI than it's something else, maybe
DOS?

yeah!

that dirt was annoying, but there was just no way it was going to ruin my
night...

It was one of the best damn parties I've ever been to... music was top
notch, location was great (I like it! Dust and all!), visuals and lighting
incredible, and the people were just soooper (hi: Jan, Sarvi, Adam (thanks
for providing the EntErtainmEnt), Terry, Brendan, Sherry, Austin, Todd,
Ian, SteveO, Phelps (i forgot you friends' names already! =( , Leslie (get
e-mail back soon!), Wayne, Tim, Raf, all the non-SFR folks I met 'n "hung
out with" =) and anyone I may have forgotten: sorry!)

I gotta say that I really had fun after the sun came up and everyone was
content to just chill and talk and hang out.

I need to head out to more of these outdoor affairs!

As this is my first posting to this list, I will try not to be too critical. 
However, having just arrived in the Bay area after 5 years in England and the
English party scene, I have to say I was most disappointed with Freedom.  As I
spent over an hour walking up and down the entrance area looking for someone,
all I heard over and over again was groups of teenage boys making rude and
obnoxious comments about several of the girls walking by.  I have never
encountered this at a party and it really isn't my idea of what partying is
all about.  I also thought the music was wholly uninspired, and that there was
a general lack of PLUR.  (Yes, I've read enough postings now to pick up on
some of the local vocabulary.)  
I'm trying not to let this experience taint my feelings about the SF rave
scene, as I was fully aware before I went that this was a commercial rave and
would be very different from what I was used to.  However, I decided to give
it a shot as I haven't been involved in the SF scene long enough to know where
the parties are that I might feel more at home at.  
If anyone has any reassurance or information on other types of parties (i.e.,
not so commercial and maybe a little older crowd), I would sincerely
appreciate it and would love to hear from you.
Looking forward to making some new friends . . . 

---Laura  :)

I have really mixed emotions about last night.

On the one hand, the party seemed to be missing some TLC. I found the light
uninspired, and the location way to dusty. I liked some of the music being
played, but to be honest, the quality of mixing was really subpar. If
you're playing in front of that many people, you should really have your
shit together. When I wanted to chill out, I found the chill-out tent WAY
too loud, and tho I like drum'n bass, it was a little much hearing it so
overdriven on a little sound system. I found some of the crowd kinda tough,
but that's the great melting pot we have here.

On the other hand, it was a beautiful night, as warm as you like with a
slight breeze. The sunrise was nice, and the drive home was wicked. If
anything I just enjoyed getting out and being around so many people.

Overall, I just found the party had little character. There wasn't a BAD
vibe- it just seemed like one big commercial party with some rough edges.

sleep tight, kids

Hi All!
 On the last Harmony beach party; Oops, I forgot to mention Hi to Adam from 
tiedie.com. A pleasure to meet you and hope to bump into you again! :) 
Big Thanks to Andrew K. for giving me a lift and helping me out with the 
hunger demon. ;) Also thanks to Joey for the grreat vibe and odwalla!!!

 I hope everyone can make it to the 3rd aniversary of Harmony in September. 
Michael Clay and I have tentative plans for a super phun ambient chill 
space. I am very sad to hear Greg say it will be the last Harmony party! 
=( 
 
 Greg and the crew from Harmony have consistantly put on some of the best 
overall parties around (in terms of music, vibe, free water, free parties 
and just trying to make everything friendly). I really feel that anyone 
on SFraves who has been to one of Harmony's parties might want to think 
about e-mailing Greg or calling the info lines and letting him know how 
much we appreciate the tremendous amount of work and love Harmony has 
given to us.

 I know that Greg and Harmony have made my life a happier place and I 
love and thank the folks with Harmony with all my heart.

Peace all

  Ok so just imagine a small rave collective wants to throw a killer 
campout party so they go looking for a space... when a friend gives them
directions to a good outdoor space. The collective follows these 
directions and come upon a WONDERFUL TO DIE FOR SPACE in the deep dark
woods. When the friend arrives- " this isn't the space I gave directions
to but it's SO MUCH BETTER!" Sometimes fortune smiles and so began this
weekend's Gateway campout...

  Damn what a wonderful party... first go to the woods 30 miles off the
main road... The space on forest service patrolled land but in an
out of the way undeveloped camp ground... The rangers who came by 
were very cooperative as was the Gateway crew ... Gateway set up a latrine.
There's a killer creek that everyone pitches tents by... going down
the creek ... day time ravers slither over, around and through 
rocks, waterfalls etc down said creek... we're in heaven!

  Night comes. Wonderful 4 corner sound system for clear dance in the
middle sound. Extra bass subs add ground vibrating bass - lookout
mole people here comes an Earthquake. Tekki torches light various areas.
Out comes the complete NOT obscured by city lights stars. DJ after DJ 
spins wonderful hard, driving techno trance all through the night.
wonderful group of 150+? ravers dance into the night. Dave and gang
unpop the final blow.... mind blowing fog machine, lasers projected
on pine trees, lights projected in all directiions... Large sitting 
log surrounded campfire ( thanks for remembering the fire permit )
this was a "no holds barred" all out in the woods RAVE. At one point
I looked at people dancing, loud pounding tunes, lasers shooting
through the man made fog ( nature supplied none of her own ), lights
and lasers making patterns on trees which surrounded us and I knew
this was really special - even topped Tribal Future (which itself
was wonderful! ) by more than just a little.

  Sometimes heaven DOES come to Earth.... This was everything an outdoor
event should be. This was NOT "Freedom" - this was FREEDOM! Wonderful
space, ins-outs into the deep dark woods, low dust factor, plenty of 
water to share, no young "testosterone" posturing, laser on trees,
lights on trees, great sound, great DJ's like Ethan, Monty, Alex, Joe,
Frank, John, Claire et al., reasonable cost factor, after daylight go 
hang out in and around a creek complete with jumping rock pool... red, 
white and blue = white skin becomes blue in water and red in sun but it feels
so good anyway..... 150+ high vibe ravers....

You people really should reconsider the massives even if they are "word
of mouth" famous... no, on second thought we don't really don't want
heaven too over-crowded after all ;-)


Mike

IF it's not obvious THANK YOU Gateway ... you did this one to PLURRR-FECTION
with only a dog fight incident to mar an otherwise georgous weekend. 
Obviously, dog fight NOT = gateway fault. Damn am I glad I made that 
drive ;-)

hi all!
i have been reading all of your posts for so long, i thought i would finally
post myself!

i had a great time a freedom!
maybe the reason was because we,(mark camp, my boyfriend courtney nielsen
and some other friends) ended up arriving late.(around 3am)  i was supposed
to run into an old friend of mine around 2am, but obviously never made it on
time. :(  (i spent the whole evening scanning the crowd for her)

anyways, when we arrived tony was just going on.  we were hanging out behind
the dj booth, just enjoying the lazer on the mountain and the music.  i saw
a lot of my friends, a great gathering of people.

probably one of the greatest highlights was when the space shuttle flew
over.  it was fantastic, exactly on time @ 5:18am. it was so perfect, the
igit(forgive the spelling, i have no clue on the true spelling but they were
great) brothers were on and there is this pink spot just quickly passing
over! (i got this great picture of it right over the dj booth!)  my friends
and i were all dancing, in front of the right front speakers, and it just
increased the great vibe we all had going!  one of my friends was looking
forward to seeing the space shuttle, but totally missed it. (kind of like
that gum commercial - i hope that my picture comes out)

the next best part was at 7:20am when Spun started.  he opened with this
great song that had this line repeating, "feel my mother f***ing bass in
your face" and another that said, "i've seen the future and it works." it
was great, the crowd was really into it.  Spun had a great set, a great way
to bring in the sun.

with the exception of the hot sun in the morning (i noticed a large group of
us dancing in the shadow of the truck holding the right front speakers) and
the little bugs swarming around (minor things compared to getting together
with thousands of people and enjoying a great morning), i hope you all had
as much fun as we did.  i looked but did not see any sf raves laminates.
maybe next time 

peace 
				         
				         :) shannon :)

ok, slight retraction- I realize that I did on;y hear 3 DJ's while I was
there. I heard Dan's set and the two jocks after him. I did not hear Jason,
who I'm sure I would have enjoyed. Regardless, the sloppy mixing was during
'prime time' (2-6am).

hello all-

just an apology to those who got tangled up between the current battle
between me and tristan, it's a nasty one.

i almost let someone drive me off this list this weekend, the tristan we
all know and love, who gave me the biggest bashing i have ever gotten for
my beliefs.  i almost let him make me quit.  then, after i went to mass
this morning (yeah, that's where we sit around and condemn people or so
that's thought) i realized just how much power that would give him, for he
would have the control over whether i was on the list or not.  once i
thought about it that way, i realized just how ludicrous it was to let
someone who disagrees with me and sends me personal messages accusing me
of being close minded, bigoted, and not qualified to go to raves control
that part of my existence.  HOW STUPID OF ME!

anyway, sorry people for the posts of mine taking up bandwidth that could
be given to loving and healthy topics, like, say, music!


i love you all, and sorry to those who find this type of post boring-

matt l

yah. i didn't dance very much. way too dusty, and i didn't feel like
twisting an ankle or anything. i just played with my glowsticks all night
instead. it's amazing how oblivious people are sometimes. yes, those trails
of light rushing through the air _do_ have objects attached to them, and if
you walk in front, you _will_ get hit. however, lots of people came up to me
and thanked me for putting on a pretty little light show. i think that was
the best part of the night for me. i think when adam et all started everyone
applauding when i was doing it was a bit more embarrasing than flattering,
but oh well. i liked the music in the experimental tent, but it was just too
hot for me to hang out there. it was even too hot outside for me for a
while. ick. oh well, the weather was beautiful, regardless. 
saw a few shooting stars and the space shuttle.. very pretty.
overall, the best thing was meeting new people. :)  so a shout out to
R.Lunatic, LowUFO, and the rest of their group, Wayne, Steveo, Phelps, and
Sarvi. i also finally got to meet mike migurski! =) . sorry to anyone else i
met and forgot.
everyone make sure to get leslie to show you the secret spot in her red hat. ;)

this is jungle sky volume II - jungle sky records/liquid sky music [JS008]
  - slower stuff. very nice to listen to.

4 hero: parallel universe - selector/reinforced records [SEL 3]
  - 4 hero is the greatest! =)

A history of hardcore part 1 (mixed by dj kenny ken) - sub base records [SB
86005-2]
  - kenny ken is sweet! older stuff, but very worth listening to

the history of out universe. breakbeat and jungle ultramix by dj DB - ? (on
tape)
  - some of the same stuff as a history of hardcore, but some excellent
tunes. the versions of 4hero's Mr Kirk's Nightmare and Boogie Times Tribe's
Dark Stranger are great.

smile - (can't find the cd right now, but it's in a bright yellow with blue
case)
  - not all breakbeat, but it does have 4hero's Mr Kirk's Nightmare 95 EQ on
it. =)

new york jungle ep - sm;)e communications (vinyl)
  - nice stuff. haven't had much of a chance to listen to it, as i don't
have a record player. :(

4 hero - Mr Kirk's Nightmare (vinyl)
  - ok. i saw this the other day but was short the 5 bucks to buy it. if you
see it, don't buy it!! it's MINE!!! =) (or buy it for me!)

Need we say more?  The vibe at Freedom was the best of any rave we've
attended -- maybe ever.  

Early on in the evening there was a sense of a desire for unity, for
cohesion, which was fulfilled as the night progressed into the morning.  At
sunrise still-eager ravers climbed the hills to watch a spectacular pink sky
and beautiful women danced in the golden glow of morning sunlight.  

By the way, I wish to add that scribing this check-in is Willow Girl (I'll
call myself), recent fiancee of the Awesome E. Nygma.  We fell in love at a
New Year's rave last January and have recently consummated our attachment
thru the exchange of a ring and are Beyond Blissful.  This event was, for
us, a celebration of our six months together and an anticipation of many
fine years to come.  Back to you, Nygma...

There were many highlights of this event. Awesome funky sets from Galen, Jon
Williams and DJ Dan. Watching the space shuttle make re-entry over our
heads. A man giving out roses to any woman he passed. A beautiful blonde
woman named Sarah who radiated love with everyone on the hill awaiting the
sunrise. Someone else (we called him Johnny Stickerseed) who offered cool
stickers to all of us. Another man with a long didjeridoo sharing a calming
vibration into our chests. The organic fruit cut and handed out.

One minor caveat: the fool who decided to light off a big firecracker amidst
the tents, just as we were considering leaving. I have come to the
conclusion that bringing fireworks to events like this is right off.

I -- er, we -- could go on for hours, but we have some more Bliss to create
amongst ourselves. Many thanks to Martin (who I had the pleasure of thanking
in person as we left) for such a well organized and safe event.

G & J (a/k/a E. Nygma & Willow Girl)

Wowser writes:  Thanks for all the compliments!!  Not! At least your blunt.
But Niels, NEVER in my post did I mention anything being "saved", nor
"Christianity", nor "religion" for that matter.  Further I did not mean for
you to be so outraged by the post, but I warned that some would.  My post
was for those who I thought might appreciate another's perspective...since
it was given strictly out of concern (mostly for newbies).

Your maturity overwhelms me!  As does your respect for people in general

love either. I practice it.  Even though people such as yourself belittle me

sis's, then I would have kept my mouth shut.  Seeing as how you defend
satanistic rituals, such as those found at "community" and some other

Wowser writes:  A simple gesture of concern is not a method of "conversion".
If I, and others, have seen the "Light", then you would really sound like an
idiot here. I don't appreciate you twisting my words.  Clearly a re-reading
of my original post is required, for I said that "community" went beyond
simple paganistic ideals.  And by the way, the parties I've attended with
"community" were rituals designed at calling forth unclean and nasty little
scum spirit things...so maybe you'll get your chance to talk to the ol'
S-man, or his "whore".  Or perhaps you know well of what I am talking about
already. I will not be willing to engage you in a debate, nor defend my
concerns for others, nor scrap with words over details.  You don't seem to
know or appreciate God.  I do.  And it is the coolest thing in my life,
although I don't consider myself "religious".  I can't help but want to
share my joy and/or conern just a bit.  But "convert"?  My post was simply
out of Love for others and I will continue to post in the future.  We're
still in the USA right?  Anyways, I can't say let's part with no hard
feelings.  But I can say, let's try to have some type of respect for other
people who think differently or see the world differently than you...OK?
Maybe you don't think anyone has feelings but you.  Me included.  But they
do, Niels.  Let's practice the first ammendment.  We're still in the USA, right?

Regards,

Troy
(Wowser)

PS.  A many thanks goes out to TEMPoNAUT and many others who appreciated my
concerned post about "community", regardless or not if they thought my
approach a bit odd.  And let me tell you Niels, and those of you who are
bashing God and everything spiritual only to talk about the dark energy
which sends your bodies into spasms or how cool it is to be a "darkie",
there were MANY who related to what I said and who also appreciate the REAL
vibe.  We dislike the imitators.  A big thanks to the 'fam' who supports
free speech and knows well that a great goodness does indeed exist...by
whatever name you call it.  I have a few more replies and then I hope
everyone will chill and put this subject to rest....at least for a while.

        Hi sfravers!  I just wanted to extend a heartfelt thanks to those of
you who responded in either a mature or positive manner with regards to my
recent **warning** post about "comeunity".  It was amazing the amount of
flaming this generated.  And even more amazing is the amount of hatred out
there.  My o' my, but did I almost cry.  My words really touched a nerve,
which was not my intention. I thought long and hard about what to say in
trying to warn my ravin' bros and sis's about what I consider to be a VERY
serious danger.  Originally I said my words would anger some...but I didn't
realize who. The numerous nasty and childish replies really hurt, but I am
not a stranger to childish hate.  Thus I hope you won't be a willy-nilly
when trying to express yourself from the heart (which is not the same as
expressing yourself from the ass as so many did in response to my post).
It is HIGH time (at least for me at) to express myself about the negatives
which threaten the rightious vibes which can happen at rave-type gatherings.

        I posted another response here tonight, which sums up some things I
wanted to say...so I hope you'll read it. I tried really hard to not be too
angry, even though the crap-flame posts really hurt.  Yuk!  My words ever
twisted by some 'sleepers' who thought they were being really cool.  Hatred
and a lack of respect for the 'fam' is NOT cool.  Deception is NOT cool.
Games are also NOT cool.  But what is "cool" is respecting the views of
others, at least for free speech.  What is "cool" are those of you who might
not have agreed with what I said, but supported my right to say it.  And
what is really, really "cool" are those of you who were aware of what I was
warning others against(especially newbies)and your strength to take a stand
for your convictions.  God is cool!  I hope you will shine that beautiful
Light of yours and take a stand for FREEDOM.  (I heard it was awesome!)

In Love for Truth,

Troy

Hey,

On Gay Day I was cruising through the booths of various interests, and 
walked up to the booth titled The Sperm Bank of California. I told the 
person attending that "I would like to buy some sperm."  She was so 
serious, she didn't get the humor.  But I did come away with some 
interesting promotional material and I may make an appointment with them 
when it comes time for my insemination....

D.

First off... Tristan, you're a CUNT 
 (I've been waiting to use that word for the right person). 
Congratulations... I have to look no further! 
 
It seems to me that you've not even listened to Larry or tried to
understand him at all.    
 
Larry was kind enough to open up and share with us his feelings about his
decision not to go to burning man and why he's decided to slow down in the
Rave scene.  There's nothing negative to say about that.  He didn't have to
tell us at all.  And for that reason, what Larry chose to share with us as
well as any other personal beliefs and opinions, should be respected. 
 
If you disagree with Larry's views and values, then that's YOUR fucking
problem.  His decision has NOTHING to do with you at all.  And most
definately does not deserve a IMMATURE, negative response like yours,
Tristan. 
 
You just seem too occupied with your elitist "True Raver" attitude.  Well,
let me give you a clue, Tristan.  You're no "True Raver" to me.  So far
your attidude contradicts just about everything I believe Raving is all
about. 
 
It's not about cutting up people for sharing what they're feeling.  It's
about respecting people for thery're feelings and providing support and
other positive or constuctive types of feedback.  If you don't agree with a
person's beliefs, and can't think of a decent way to let them know... then
keep it up your ass. 
 
>NO offence guy but do you still wear dypers? 
Maybe you should be asking this of yourself.  It seems to me your need
something down there to hold all your BULLSHIT.

We had her spin at Planet Rock last Dec. 8th.  She was supposed to spin 
at a certain time, showed up late and only spun for 1/2 hour, and wanted 
to be paid in full.  I like her a lot, she's got a lot of heart, but she 
also has a lot of attitude.  As far as her style, it does fit in with 
Chicago a lot better than here too.  There was a short time that DJ Dan 
rubbed off on her, but now she's back to that same 'ol "too hard for SF" 
style...

I must say, twas such a fine holiday...

Friday night I was hanging with my non-techno chums.  Running around the city
ending up at he Cornet theatre for the late showing of ID4.  Having an early
brekfast @ some hole-in-the-wall restraunt @ 430AM.. 

Saturday I was off buying a new speaker system 4 my home getup.  Some decent
sized mids and a sub cabinet.  Spinning and trying to get that "just right"
sound...
Then to a CCC party round' 11:00 PM that lasted well into sunday morning (I
left around 9:30 and the DJ was still spinning)...  Wow, talk about spun.
I lasted till about 12:30 and then slipped into a blissful semi-coma till 6am
today...


Hope you all had a great time as I did...

"Dance with me..."

-Adam

I'm sorry if anyone missed it, but that was IMHO the best party so far of 
the year!  Who could forget all the people, the music, the UFO :), etc.

The music was definitely cool all night, and I noticed that there was a 
wooden booth built for the DJ, probably to built so the tables wouldn't 
get bumped.  Still, there were people crowded around the booth, making it 
almost impossible for the DJ to see how the crowd as a whole was reacting 
to the music.  While DJ Dan was spinning, there were two people with 
video cameras in his face, and he wasn't too happy about that.  I 
probably don't have to tell anybody here, but c'mon ravers, respect those 
DJs!  His set could've been even better.

I think DJ Dan, Tony, Rob Vaughn, Josh, and Spun all showed up the Idjut 
Boys... they're definitely good musicians, but mediocre DJs... cheers to SF!

About that "UFO"... a lot of people saw it... yeah, it could've been a 
plane, but do planes leave trails of sparkles? :) :)  Yeah, I might have 
been a little high or something, but everyone around me saw it too, and 
some people were <gasp> completely sober.  I'm not really too spiritual, 
and I don't believe in too much paranormal stuff, but there was 
definitely a lot of energy at Freedom, and I felt it.  Maybe all the 
energy we channeled acted as a beacon that got the aliens' attention... 
err... maybe not... some people say it was the space shuttle landing.. 
nevermind :)

Went to Nikita for the 2nd week in a row and had a little less fun than
last week.  When there is great music at Nikita, 1015 can be a fun place.
Last week Terry Mullin spun and the place rocked.  This friday the music
was very clubby and not too interesting.  1015 Folsom was just 1015 Folsom.
We spent most of our time upstairs groovin' to hip hop.  I won't go back 
until there is another killer DJ coming into town.

Despite being held in a a big dirt hole, Freedom was fun.  Again, great music
made this event.  Tony, Dan and Josh are bomb dj's who are perfect for
summer massive parties.  Too bad the outdoor location was not more, um,
inspirational? at sunrise.

	Thank you all Gateway folks. Light was awsome. Beautiful location
with a clearing for dancing near the stream, an area that became the tent
city, and the most delightful pool formed by the river, with waterfall and
a high rock to jump from. Spent 2 or 3 hours in the cool water enjoying my
self and meeting some wonderful people. I wish I could name them all by
I'am horrible with names. But if you are one of them respond to this
message so I can drill your name into my head. All in all one of the best
weekends I've had. Hope all of you had such a wonderful 4th of July
weekend.

I have to throw my two cents in with those who said Freedom was a blast!  
It was a helluva fun night and morning!  We got there around midnight, 
and set up our tent on the track.  Obviously, the dust sucked, but it 
added to the adventure of it all.  Plus, what better way to prepare for 
Burning Man, than to find the dust deposit pockets beforehand!  ;)

The music was nice, if not inspirational.  We grooved in front of the 
right front speaker several times, but I never saw any laminates!  We 
really must find a better way for sfravers to meet beforehand!  I was 
with some old skoolers and had some fine conversation, but it would have 
been great to meet some more people from this list!  Maybe next time...

Sunrise was beautiful, and when we were able to climb the ridge we saw 
the wonderful faultline and pastures beyonf as the sun broke the horizon.

Thanks to Martin for a solid vibe and a beautiful crowd!

love
john

For your Bastille Day (French Independence Day) enjoyment: Stella Luna
plays the Paul Masson Winery the evening of 7/14, the last of a four-band
line-up for a gal's birthday party.  There may be flyers printed, and I'll
add details as I get 'em.  Every time they play, it's new and different.
The music is psychotic/hypnotic/ambient/psychedelic, beautiful and
satisfying.  Please consider this for your weekend entertainment, if it
sounds appealing.

Enjoy,

Best party I've ever been to?  Yea, I could say that.....but geeez, I've
said that so many times that it really doesn't mean much anymore I guess.

The space was perfect, incredible, breathtaking, marvelous, and uh...really
uh good!  Plenty of grass, a beautiful stream running right through the
camp, and right behind the dj's.  A huge fire pit surrounded by big logs for
sitting.  The raver tent city that formed down stream a ways.  The shrine
someone set up accross the stream that I used for my daily meditation
(thanks).  The "garden of eden" feel of downstream at the waterfall...water
flowing down steps of rock...various pools of various depts for dipping.  A
15-20 ft. high rock for jumping into the big pool.  A beauitful meadow of
little flowers on one side rising to the trees.....   And many, many
complete strangers, nude and happily soaking up all of the bliss.  Children
playing in the shallow pools.  Dogs running and spashing about.  I don't
believe I've ever seen so many beautiful people in one place.  I was quite
taken by the experience.  True family.

I was lucky enough to get to dj at this party, and I was even luckier to be
asked to open up on the incredible sound system Friday night.  I guess the
original first dj hadn't shown up yet (I was scheduled to play Saturday
morning) so Clair asked me.  Dave, Justin? and I started playing didg into a
mic while a circle of meditative peoples gathered around the dance floor.
Dave did a little chanting as well as I, then I proceeded to slowly mix in
the ambience to begin the festivities.  I played ambience and a bit of slow
IDM, and had a blast playing on the biggest system I've ever played on.  I
didn't know half my records had that much bass in them :)  Great techno all
night.  I must commend the dj that spun after me, (sorry I can't remember
your name).  He spun techno all from cd's...and may I say....he did it WELL.

The laser fucking rocked.  The smoke from the fire was lined up directly
with the path of the laser, keeping a flow of smoke going even when they
wern't using the fog machine.  Really nice touch.  I was quite impressed.

Saturday evening, after spending time in the garden of eden mentioned above,
a wonderful thing happened.  Clair was spinning some ambient soundscapes
that just went so well with the landscape.  Then Dave, Justin? and I once
again proceeded to play didg, and once again a large circle formed (standing
this time) around the dance floor. (they took a little prompting, but all
was good after that)  After playing for a few minutes, we all joined in the
circle and stood for a few minutes just feeling the energy.  I was thinking
we should do a spirial dance and within a few seconds, Dave had started one
a few people down from me.  We proceeded in turn, spiraling toward the
center, laughing and smiling...all of this to sound of Clair's ambience
which helped everything to flow that much more smoothly.  Once we reached
the center there were woops and clapping and bliss all around.  Then we put
our hands on the ground to feel the Mother Earth, and once again, Dave took
the lead and started toning.  Soon we all were doing it.  There were
Ohhhhhhmmmmmmm's and Eeeeeeeeeeeee's, and Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh's all over the
place.  I just love doing that.  Then we stood and soon a large group hug
formed, which was definately the biggest hug I've ever experienced.  Clair
provided ambience for a while longer, into the darkness, then the thumping
again went off into the night and late morning.  Ethan premiered a great new
techno track he created to the delight of our ears, then proceeded to go off
as he usually does.  I ended up passing out, but I know Minor spun greatly
(some day I'll get to see you spin man, I promise), then John Carol did a
crazy marathon set of around four hours (I heard someone mention).  When I
woke up, John was still spinning.  I went over to the dance floor and to my
amazement there were about 15-20 people still dancing thier ass off.  I just
watched in amazement as Mr. Carol put them on and off, and even though I was
watch him do it, there were still times when I couldn't tell which parts
were the new song, and which parts were the old.  He's really good.  I think
he played almost every record in his box as well.  Eventually he stopped and
passed out next to the decks.  We all spent the day at the swimming hole in
bliss all over again.  Then it was time to load all the equipment up the
hill.  Special thanks to Dave Able and Ethan Miller for loading every
speaker in the place on to the 4X4 and then onto the big truck....and to the
guy with the blond dreads who owned the truck and spent the entire day
packing it with all of the sound equipment.  I had fun hanging out with
everyone all day.

I got to meet lots of sfraves, and please forgive me if I forget some or
most of your names.  I am working to be able to remember the names of people
I meet.  Let's see, Ben(not sure if he's an sfraver), Dave Bayer, Tony
Rotundo(sp), Jess Fogler, Erik (the guy at Moonpups house) (Jess and Erik,
thanks for the wonderful conversation about piercings, ambient music and
music making gear).  And was it Nancy? that I met in the raver tent city who
somehow knew who I was....I wish I would have gotten to talk more with you,
but my habitual distractions let me off on some adventure and I never got to
see you again.  There are several others that slip my mind at this point,
but I hope I can see you all again sometime.  (There is one guy I met, I can
see you in my mind.  You are blond and I met you first at RAW, but again
sorry I have misplaced your name.

Had a great time getting to know the Gateway crew, and getting to connect
with Ethan on a deeper level.  We shall make music together really soon.  I
met so many wonderful people...so many I can see in my minds eye as I write
this(the two beautiful women working the "door" when I arrived, who I talked
with so much and really tried hard to remember your names), but even walking
away with as many names as I did is an accomplishment for me.  I have
certainly been changed by my experience, and I *will* remember this party.

I love you all.

Rick

You say that there were Satanic "rituals" being practised.  Would you mind
telling those of us who have never seen anything of the sort exactly what
this looks like?  Were they building altars?  Any power symbols of evil
around?  Being a humanist who hasn't looked deeply into the darker sides
of spirituality, i admit i wouldn't know a Satanist ritual if it kicked me
in the ass, but i would like to be able to avoid em if i see em.  Can you
eludicate?

I really enjoyed myself at Freedom.  I hear the people
who had problems with it, but I would like to say that
it's important to realize that heaven and hell are two
different perspectives of the same place.

If you focus on the negative young boys at the gate or
the dirt on your shoes things may seem a bit bad, whereas
if you focus on a group of thousands coming together to
dance the night away and sharing their myriad of
personalities and differences with each other, then
things can seem a little inspiring.  Either way is fine,
just know you have the freedom to choose the perspective
that best suits you.

I thought the setup was a bit nicer than the last few years, with
the laser going over the crowd and the sweeping colored lights.
The sound system was great... the music was up and down.
I liked Josh and John Williams a lot... but then DJ Dan
lost it a bit for me... he got a bit too chaotic that a
strength was lost.  Tony's set was good but vanished into thin
air and the Injut boys were a bit mellow.  But then in the
morning I was having a great time dancing with the
remaining people in the morning light.  That's where my
night was made, in that peace and energy I felt in the morning.

I've said this before but I'll say it again...
It doesn't matter if it's a big or small party, a
commercial or underground party, an old timer or fresh
people party... All that matters is you and your attitude
right here, right now.  You can find the ultimate vibe
and joy anywhere, as long as you're willing to look where
it really all comes from... deep within your own heart.

Sometimes it's easier than others, but it's always the
same thing that makes the real difference... you.

I'm glad people found heaven at the gateway campout, and
I'm glad people found heaven at Freedom.  I'm also glad
some people found heaven staying at home getting a good
nights rest.  All are just as important as each other,
and we need to remember that.

If you're not willing to debate your point of view, then you shouldn't
have wasted our time posting your very debatable points of view in a
public forum. The existence of  Satan, God, and the Tooth Fairy have
not been proven beyond a doubt, and therefore have been, and always
will be a subject of debate.

I guess you're the only one allowed to post hype right?

> Further I did not mean for

So you expected it to outrage, even though you didn't "mean it"? What
kind of twisted thinking are you employing? Or did you figure that
Christianity is a common enough cultural background that people would
tolerate your blathering? What of the Hindus, Jews, Pagans, Wiccans,
Atheists, and other religions (even Satanists) on this list -- we're
just supposed to take it because we're "minorities"??

Go reread your own post. Your "warning" was a condemnation. You were 
being negative about something you don't understand or believe in.

> My post

I appreciated your perspective, and I replied in kind. You can couch
your blatherings as "protecting newbies" or "concern" or whatever, but
it was a very thinly veiled religious proseltyzing in my eyes
(and clearly in the eyes of a number of other people as well).

I believe you are putting forward a fallacious argument in positing
that satan exists and gives a flying fuck about being present at
Come/Unity (he's too busy telling your church elders how to steal money
from the church coffers, too busy figuring out new ways for pastors to
fuck underage boys and girls and get away with it under the guise of
"love").

You are using abstract words like "love" "freedom of speech" "concern"
to defend a message that didn't really have any place on this list.
Post away, go ahead and make my day. You shouldn't be  surprised if
people respond to you as they did, and being pathetic as you are, you
feign "injury" -- you fluffy little helpless sheep you!

> And by the way, the parties I've attended with
> "community" were rituals designed at calling forth unclean and nasty little
> scum spirit things...

That's not true. Those strippers and hoes have been known to shower 
occasionally.

> I will not be willing to engage you in a debate, nor defend my

So you won't be able to debate me until I "know or appreciate god"?
Isn't that conveeeeenient!  You can only preach to the converted, in
other words.

I am truly happy for you that you've found god and are happy. However,
you should realize that this is a *PERSONAL* thing and that your god is
not my god, and when you condescendingly make public claims that we are
the worse for not being under His grace, you are insulting us.

> I can't help but want to share my joy and/or conern just a bit.

Neither can I.

> But "convert"?  My post was simply out of Love for others and I will 
> continue to post in the future.  

Then I guess I'll continue to respond to your posts out of "love for
others" too because I've "seen the light" and know in my heart that you
Christians (especially the ones so insecure in their faith that they
must warn/convert others against "sin") are all a bunch of liars,
charlatans, con-artists, and thieves! 

If you were secure in your faith, you wouldn't find the need to warn
the unbelievers about the perils of evil. You could walk through the
valley of the shadows of the night of the living dead and come out 
undaunted. Or do your "soul savings" make you eligible to collect
special coupons granting you seating near the apostles that you can
cash in at the pearly gates?

> We're still in the USA right? 

Yeah we are. Which is why I can expect christians like yourself to make
school prayer mandatory even though we are supposed to have a separated
church and state. We're in the USA where Christians have organized
resistance against distributing condoms and birth control information
in schools (why would christianity want to limit it's flock of poor,
disaffected, impoverished, diseased, uneducated dimwits by which it
fills it's coffers, when you can create a bumper crop of newborns ripe
for the pickin?)... this is why I can expect "good christians" to be
killing abortion clinic workers -- taking lives to protect the "pure"
souls of the unborn. We're still in the USA with "in god we trust" on
every dollar bill , and with school children forced to repeat "one
nation under god" every morning before they begin their studies. We're
still in the USA where Christianity was used to justify slavery... 

> Anyways, I can't say let's part with no hard

THat's right. Lets have some respect. I WAS DEEPLY INSULTED BY YOUR
POST. *I* *HAD* *TO* *RESPOND*. If you want nice cordial discussions on
this list, then don't bring up off-topic postings on religion that
fundamentally cannot be shared by all readers on this list. Perhaps you
can't understand that because you think your sick and perverted ethos
is just "love". But I don't.

Here's the deal. If there's some Xtian postings on this list that I
find insulting, I will reply, sometimes rudely, always blasphemingly.
If you want to keep your pretty little eyes away from the evil filth I
promise to spew in response, you'd best not post about it on this list.
There's plenty of lists where you can get together with other cretins
and blather on about "love". This isn't a freedom of speech, it's just
common courtesy (netiquette).

> Let's practice the first ammendment.  We're still in the USA, right?

Freedom of speech doesn't mean that I have to tolerate your speech.  I
let you speak. I even spent the time reading your spew. If you believe
in freedom of speech, you must let me respond to your lies. That's
really what freedom of speech is about -- it's a double edged sword and
it can cut like a knife!

If you're not willing to debate about your postings, then you're really
not employing freedom of speech, which implies discourse -- just
proseltyzing and propaganda. I still believe that is the fundamental
purpose behind your warning and I won't stand for it.

is there a name for the kind of mellow/inspiring/house/trance they were

just called it "morning techno."

 This was a really great party. I couldn't imagine a better location, 
with the grass and rocks, river and trees; it was sublime. Props to the 
guy who watered down the dancefloor on Saturday afternoon. It stayed as 
dust-free as could be expected, and was flat, soft and spacious.
 The music was right-on too. I usually prefer faster Goa stuff, but the 
techno Ethan, Minor Minor and John spun was very trippy, fluid, and 
perfect for an outdoor party.

 One group of our friends arrived around 6pm on Saturday, only to find 
all the signs torn down. Lost for hours, and ready to turn back, they 
hooked up with a couple of guys in a 4x4 who had been camping in the area, and somehow 
knew where where the party was. They gave our friends a ride in, and 
actually stayed and had fun for an hour or so. Some good karma working 
there, I'd say.

 Hi to Jess, Andrea, Rikki, Renauld, and everyone who's name I've 
already forgotten. Thanks to that crazy, smiling guy who danced his 
nutty dance back and forth between the rear stacks all night (btw; I'll 
have what he's having; does anyone know what it was?), you kept us 
entertained when we were too tired to dance! And big thanks to Gateway 
for all the hard work that went into organizing everything.

You'll never see a flame from me, or even so much as a spark ;)  I don't
like the bitter, nasty messages either, but I love every person on Earth,
and that includes people who are closed-minded, people who hate or ridicule
me for my beliefs (even if they haven't met me), people who think I can't
be cool because of my age, clothing, or hair, etc.  All I want to do is
give my love and support to everyone; it's up to them whether or not to
accept it.

Peace,

Those are wise words. I don't think I heard many people say they were
dissapointed they went to Freedom. I had some problems with it, but was
incredibly psyched to be out and around tons of nice people. That's not to
say that constructive criticism can't be made about these events- and that
one can't have a good time and yet be dissapointed in the same stroke. I
believe this is because though these parties are great communal events (for
some of us), at the end of it we are individuals with our own special and
unique agendas. I hope it stays that way.

Dalshire,

This list ebbs and flows.  On the average it is *MUCH* more positive than 
negative, one just needs to wait out the conflict.  Since we live in a 
world of yin and yang, positivity circulates right along with 
negativity.  However, both serve equal purposes, and each person must 
decide for themselves how they are going to learn from the respective 
experiences.  One needs turmoil in one's life in order to put it in 
perspective.  Sometimes the most real "living" comes from understanding 
conflict.  It is my opinion that we are the most alive when we interact 
with others, and in this interaction their is always conflict.

Sometimes people need a forum to vent and express their opinions.  
Problems arise when all that is expressed is negativity, but I'd feel 
the same if all that was expressed was positivity.  So, just give this 
space a chance, and you might be pleasantly surprised.  

finer shades of grey,
KaySEE

I picked up someone's thick navy sweatshirt at the AMAZING campout this weekend
from a chill area just off the dance "floor". It has a little embroidery on it
too. Let me know if it's yours!

It's actually pretty tough to find good Jungle mix CD's. Though I mainly
buy vinyl, I went on a quest about a month ago to buy a good mix CD to see
what I was up against (jungle mix styles). Here's what I came up with:

Legit:
Renegade Dub Selection II: Continuously mixed. Great stuff from '94 when
Dark Step was first starting to hit. Features a lot of the top producers
that went overlooked by the first wave of major label signings. I got it at
tower for domestic price...

Logical Progression: A nearly definative history of Drum'n Bass. From LTJ
Bukem's Demons (I CAN'T belive this is 91!!!) to modern classics like "One
and Only". Though a little on the fluffy side, still a great comp.Seperate
trax

Artcore: Number two just came out, and looks just excellent. A great mix of
dark and intelligent stuff by some of the UK's most respected
producers:T-Power, Optical, Doc Scott and more. seperate trax

Pure Rollers #1
I listened to this last week. Solid. Though it doesn't have lots of peaks,
it just keeps going and going. Really good mood music. continuously mixed.

------------------------------------------------->
There's a lot of crap jungle out at the moment. In MY OWN OPINION (!!!)
these are some things to watch out for:

-Moonshine Comps- there's some good stuff on there, especially on
Counterforce, but mostly this is way way mainstream stuff from the UK...Oh,
and the 140+ compilaitons are mostly happy hardcore these days. BEWARE!

-Jungle Sky- Much respect to these east coast boys for really pushing the
scene, but their comps just aren't up to par. The most common criticism I
hear is that the UK stuff they mix is played out, and domestic stuff is
weak overall. *shrug* It IS the UK's music- hell, this is their
hip-hop...it's gonna take a little more time...

-Random UK comps with scantilly clad women on the cover and noone you've
ever heard of before on the track listing...listen before you buy:)

-peace-

After a fabulously beautiful weekend at the Gateway campout, I'm leaving
for Europe tomorrow for a few weeks.  I'll be in London first, visiting
friends and I'm planning on hitting as many raves and clubs as I can get
my poor wrecked body to go to.  I'm especially looking forward to hearing
some wicked drum 'n bass and some harder, faster techno...:)  Then I'm
going to France to visit my Dad. I'll be back in August.

I'm unsubscribing from the list until my return and when I get back I'll
have to decide whether or not to re-subscribe.  Much as I love y'all, I
did just about fail physiology this last quarter because I spent to much
time on the list.  I'd hate to flunk out of med school (or worse, kill a
patient one day) because I was too busy reading reviews of the last Sunset
:)

So either I'll see you on the list in August or I'll see you in person at
the next event we're at together.

It's been wonderful getting to know you all and being a part of the
community.  I'll look forward to some real-life hugs and exchanges of good
vibes next month.  If I get a hold of a computer in Europe I may post a
little hello/review of the scene.

Be good to each other while I'm gone...

Peace,

		Ranting and Raving

Hey all!

Here's my Promise review, albeit a rather late one.  

First off, let me say that it was sooo nice to be able to go to a 
regular ol' indoor SF-based rave, I do love the outdoors, but not when 
there are nothing but outdoor parties due to space problems for the 
indoors.  Thanks! :)

The location was pretty cool, it almost looked like someone's house.  I 
think it was a yoga place or something, judging from the random yoga 
flyers I saw everywhere!  In certain ways, it reminded me of the Acme 
(the good points of the Acme) because of the multi-level/multi-room set 
up, which I find kinda fun.  I do like having one big room with 
everybody in it, there's always a nice unification of the group with 
that, but I also enjoy wandering around from room to room discovering 
new stuff with every turn when there are multiple rooms & levels, it's 
kinda like wandering thru some surreal fun-house! :)  Always something 
new to discover each time you turn the corner.  And this space had a 
*big* bonus that the Acme lacks big-time, that being an outdoor area 
with chairs in which to cool off.  Very nice!  One thing I would have 
changed would be to add more cushions & soft stuff to sit on in the 
main chill area upstairs, that hardwood floor with 2-3 pillows just 
didn't cut it for me.  Gimme Beanbag chairs, & mattresses like Madness 
had! :)  

This was a particularly cool party because Paul brought along two 
newbie friends who were trying out the whole Experience for the first 
time!  This was really nice to watch & participate in their first 
journeys.  Paul, they were really cool, you have to bring them out to 
play again!  

The music was pretty damned cool too, found myself jumping all around 
to whoever it was playing that juicy hard goa after Ethan's set, really 
dug on that!  Does anybody know who that was?  I thought I heard 
someone say Surge, if so, I'm gonna hafta keep a lookout for him again. 
Altho really, this party ended up not being so much with the music, 
more time was spent with friends & the newbies, which was cool too.  
Met some new sfravers too, like Austin, Jim Cyr, & Carol Saldana (with 
the groovy psychedellic tank-dress!) and ran into Brian Darkness whom I 
haven't seen in ages (thanks again B!).  

Well I think that about covers it.  Hope to see you all at Beautiful 
People next weekend, muchly lookin forward to it! :)

Love,
Shawna

Damn str8!  The best part bout this is that it is my understanding that
this will be held at the Greek Theatre!  Could probably stick your head
out of the window and attend the concert if the tickets cost too much :-)

I have to second this one.  Everyone has their own interests, their own
pace.  Anyone who thinks that what they do and know is better than
anyone else is just wrong.  I started raving years ago and thought I was
cool as fuck because later everyone was doing it and I was
first..etc..etc.  Now, it's not the greatest interest of mine and I am
not up on the latest happenings as others are, but does that make them
cooler than I?  Does it matter?
To each their own and praise diversity.

dude, I remember reading the *exact* same elitist bullshit last year.
Something along the lines of only the cool kids were at Burning Man and
everyone who went to Basics was a poser. someone can check me on this,
but I even think it was a Tristan who posted it as well. Fuck that.

Just because you have the means and drive to make it does *not* make you
a better person or a better human being. Not everybody has the same
health or economic resourses that you may.

instead of making condesending remarks, I'm thankful that I've got all
my
limbs intact, a good back, some cool friends, and a bit of cash for my
trip.
There are enough assholes in this world, you really don't need to add to
their numbers.

Hmm... that last message makes no sense without an introduction... :-)

Ive only been on the list for a few days tho Ive been here in Berkeley
enjoying the sunny west coast for a month now.  Im originally from 
Pittsburgh...  a city with a well-deserved reputation as an up-and-coming
rave scene (well, actually, its had that reputation for a while :-).
Anyway, I will be starting grad school here at good ol' UC-Berkeley in
the fall and am here getting a jump on things.  That last message about
Dead Can Dance got me so hyped cause I currently live in the Foothill
Residence Hall and can hear all of the concerts at the (outdoor) Greek
Theatre.  Yes!  Anyway, Ive been meaning to post here and stop
lurking so here goes...

My first SF-raves experience was not good I hate to say.  I went to
some party...  the last Saturday in June...  Uhh... I forget the name.
Anyway, it was on the ROM.  The crowd was a decent size (it was at
a location around 21st and Mission) but the attitude was *GREATLY*
dissappointing for a locale w/ such a great reputation.  The only
people who spoke to me were asking me if I was buying or dropping...
Im totally fine w/ people getting wasted but please dont bug ME about
it!  In four years at Pgh parties Ive never had that happen!  Anyway,
the people *I* spoke to (only a couple) were quite discouragingly
standoffish.  I *really* think I found a bad party judging from the
heavy PLUR of this list.  So to stop this rant Im looking for
anybody whode be willing to show me the ropes in picking out
good parties and getting familiar with DJs, etc.  Id especially like
to hear from any UCB students cause they are nearby!

- David

PLUR up ya scene!

you could just climb the hill behind it, and check it out... How about a
bunch of SFR's (DCD SFR's of course) get together and stake out a nice hill
spot for the concert? that'd be nice... or I could just pay the ticket
price. =P

Dear You;

        I agree I can't spell, and to make it worst I even forget to use my
reader equipped spell checker. So much for the English language, but areas I
do however shine in are Calculus, Physics, Quantum Mechanics, Differential
Equations, Multi-Dimensional Vector Calculus, Thermodynamics, Licensed
Massage Therapist, Master Electrician(unlicensed), Certified Electronic
Technician, Electrical Engineer, Computers, The Net, Psychology, Certified
Crisis Counselor, Certified Body Centered Awareness Therapist, ...etc.  

        In addition and as an Electrical Engineer I have designed systems
and parts for the following Military aircraft; A-6 Intruder, A-10 Warthog,
AH-64 Apache Attach Helicopter, F-4 Phantom, F-15 Strike Eagle, F-16 Falcon,
F-111 Ardvark, Discovery Space Shuttle, Tomahawk Cruise Missile, Maverick
Missile, and numerous air sea rescue helicopters as well. Also, helped
design the following hi-speed computer mass transits vehicles(trains),  New
Cities Metro-North * Long Island Railroad's FL9-AC Dual Mode Locomotive, New
Jersey Transits Electric Silver Liners and ALP-44 Electric Locomotive,
Baltimore Light Rail Vehicle, Maryland DoT's Coach Car's, Amtrak's Northeast
Corridors AEM-7 Electric Locomotive, and LA Metro.

        Sometimes skills like spelling have to suffer, sorry. Nice mature
remark there Randy, your name has just been added to my redirect to the
trash can list. You have the pleasure of joining people like: Wowser, &
Captain Crunch. Congratulations.

Let Freedom RAVE!  Wow, it was great hearing the fam's reports on this
year's gathering.  I missed it, but did some cool stuff up North.  I went
last year, or so, and it was GREAT then.  Glad to hear it was still cool.
Let Freedom Rave is one of those special times of the year when we get
renewed, or at least it seems like that to me.  Shine on!

[from conversation overheard while waiting for my apple fritter at lunch]

1: I went to a rave this weekend. There were 4000 people there, and not one fight

2: Were they that drunk? or on PCP or something?<girl titters.shes out of her league>

1: I dunno, they weren't drinking. maybe noone knew how to fight. There were
some people kinda slapping each other, though...but no one get hurt 
<he's not disapointed, hes just confused> 

<time/speech elapses. I ask what party he went to. He asks if i do dust. 
I eat my fritter>

1: you know, real ravers hide their appearances when they aren't going out.
They don't look like they go to raves. 

<like aliens, and supergyros, i guess>

I was kinda irritated for a minute, then i realized that i 
would really like to see 4000 dusted aliens sfraving away.

well, maybe from a distance. 

them aliens are unpredictable as it is. 

besides theyve prolly got super-cool barbarella drugs.

and just say 'no' to PCP

does the gov't have any alien tranquilizers?

maybe we show them TV until they pass out from 'days-of-our-lives' shock.

but bettty sez she still wants to go.

and to stop wasting bandwidth

take care

A couple recent house cd's I would recommend are: 

Future Sound of Chicago Vol. 2 

- great selection of Cajual tracks with mixing provided by Derrick Carter,
  on Ministry of Sound

DJ Mark Farina - Seasons One (I think?) 

- If you like Mr. Farina's sound you'll dig this cd, and it's easy to
  find (it's distributed by moonshine)... 

also, in the slightly experimental house vein, I *highly* recommend
Herbert's "100 lbs" on Phono. Awesome.

Nope, but it's the same Taylor profiled in the latest xlr8r.  He used to
be one of my favorites years ago but it's been awhile since I've heard him
spin...

Andy

ps anyone know if exist dance is indeed defunct?

Hi Karen! Yeah, they were building alters there...but it wasn't so much that
as it was who and what they were building them to.  There were hexigons on
the dancefloor and walls, with candles and all kinds of stereotypical
satanistic crap everywhere.  Their ring leader got up on the speaker and
kept putting on these ram-looking masks.  He chanted and ordered everyone to
call out to the "demon" although they called it by another name.  It was
erie!  The vibe was not there, needless to say.  But another presence was
there...a presence which calls itself a vibe. Yuk! It was as though a veil
of swiriling, hot, confusing, fear had descended.  There were also some
pretty weird supernatural things there...like voices in the music saying,
"Love can only hurt you" and "Stop Love!" and other lies. It was gross, K!
As though these kids were being brainwashed.  They were dead for all
intensive purposes.  Makes me sick to my stomach to think about it. Their
eyes were big and dark (not like from drugs though), and I found out later
what "comeunity" was all about.  Sadly, there are other groups like this in
SF and elsewhere.  Like I said, I've raved from coast-to-coast.  The main
characteriscs I've found in these 'sleepers' is that they lie about what
they do and jump down your throat it you try to talk about it.  They want to
keep their activities secret.  They also lash out and ridicule anything that
is positive...usually spewing a negative and calling it positive.  They try
to keep the Truth from being known and keep everyting up-side-down. Oh yeah,
they also put words into your mouth ANYTIME you talk about Love or God or
the positive vibe (like they did with my original post....saying I was
"religious" or a "Christian", even though I NEVER used these words).  I
think most people know that music is a powerful tool.  And I hope most
ravers know about the REAL vibe, and not just the imitations.  We all know
the spiritual nature of rave events (usually), and I think those who deny
this are only fooling themselves.  After all, music is the language of love.

On a more positive note, however, the real vibe did come that night in
particular as a result of a few VERY dedicated individuals who knew what was
going down.  Things turned around for a while and I think everyone there was
faced with some choices.  Oh so important are those sublime choices!  The
presence of Love actually came down!  Hard to describe, but AWESOME!  Let's
just put it this way, we kept calling out for help...and help came!  That
kind of help is available to anyone willing to take a stand.

Karen, if you have any questions, please feel free to post them.  FREEDOM!

In Love,

Troy

Hello All!

I saw Symbiosis live a couple months ago at a party, (forgot which one,
sorry!), on 50 Oak street and just this past weekend I happened to be
looking through the CDs at Tower and stumbled on their first full CD
release. I immediately snapped up the last CD left remembering how much
I loved them when I heard them live...their CD is just as INCREDIBLE!!!
I'm not too good at classifying music but it seems to me to have a bit
of everything for everyone...ambient, techno, trance, breakbeat. Anyone
else have an opinion on their music / CD?

The CD is titled: Clandestine Electronic Subculture
Released by: Domestic Recordings

well well well, where to start... first, a hewmungous thank-you to gateway
systems, for throwing such an amazing party.  the sound system just raged
and i admit i got caught up in the laser wave-thingy more than once..
the disco ball hanging between the trees was a nice touch as well.
of course, the thing that made this event so special was the people.  i
met so many kind, loving, open people i won't even try to list them all
(i did make an attempt in my journal tho :)  

rilly good moments:
 -seeing lots of familiar faces and getting to know many of them much better
 -waking up sunday morning and jumping off the big rock into the icy water
 -getting to play didjeridu even though i forgot mine
 -the spiral dance on saturday's opening ceremony

barely bad things:
 -forgetting my didjeridu at home :/  i kicked myself about 130 times for
  this one...next time..
 -getting way lost after taking a wrong turn and spending 3hrs trying to
  find the campground..good thing it wasn't dark!


thanks again to everyone, i hope to see you all again *soon*


love,
 justin

NON RAVE RELATED: Update on my disk problems, then a joke.

First, thanks to everyone that helped me out with my EIDE disk problem.  

For those of you that find yourself in this position in the future here's 
the scoop:
        1. Normally a low-level format of an IDE drive destroys it.
           newer drives ignore the system request for a low-level
           format, so my new drive is ok after all, but I DOS still
           thinks it's only 504 megs.

        2. Either your system BIOS (or disk controller BIOS) has 
           to recognize that the disk has more than 1023 
           cylinders and create a special internal
           table that is used to fool DOS, or you have to have a
           special software driver that does the same.  Since my
           BIOS is an old ('92) AMI BIOS, it wasn't quite doing
           the trick by itself, and the software drivers that
           came with my new EIDE card didn't work.

        3. I've ordered a card from AMI that supplements the 
           existing BIOS to handle the large drive.  $50 through
           Colfax International in Sunnyvale.  This way I don't have
           to replace my current BIOS chip, and since it's from
           AMI, I think it's pretty safe to assume that it will
           work ok with my existing BIOS.

The card should be here in a couple of days, so we'll see how it goes...

Second, here's a joke from a pen-pal of mine in Singapore.  Seem to me we 
need some good vibes on the list right now, and humor is a universal language...

---------

Once upon a time there was a nice young man called Karim. He used to sell
caps for a living, and roam around several villages. One day he would be in
Mughalsarai, the other day people would find him in Faizabad.

It was an afternoon in summer and he was traversing the vast plains when he
felt tired and wanted to have a nap. He found a nice mango tree with lots
of branches and cool shade, placed his bag of caps beside him and went to
sleep.

Tired as he was, he was quickly fast asleep. When he woke up after a
refreshing little nap, he found that there weren't any caps in his bag! "Oh,
 Allah!", he said to himself, "Did the thieves have to find me of all
people?" But then he noticed that the mango tree was full of cute monkeys
wearing colourful caps!

He yelled at the monkeys and they screamed back. He made faces at them and
found the monkeys to be experts at that. He threw a stone at them and they
showered him with raw mangoes.

"Ya Allah, how do I get my caps back," he said. Frustrated, he took off his
own cap and slammed it on the ground. And lo, the stupid monkeys threw
their caps too! Smart Karim didn't waste a second, collected the caps and
was on his way.


   50 Years later ....

     Young Abdul, grandson of famous topiwala Karim who was also working
hard at making $$$ doing his family business, was going through the same
jungle. After a long walk he was very tired and found a nice mango tree
with lots of branches and cool shade. Abdul decided to rest a while and
very soon was fast asleep. A few hours later, when Abdul woke up, he
realised that all the caps from his bag were gone! Abdul started searching
for the same and to his surprise found some monkeys sitting on mango tree
wearing his caps. Abdul was frustrated and didn't know what to do. And then
he remembered a story his grandfathers proudly used to let him.

"Yes!!!! I can fool these monkeys!!!", said Abdul. "I'll make them imitate
me and very soon I'll get all my caps back!"

Abdul waved at the monkeys        -- the Monkeys waved at Abdul
Abdul blew his nose               -- the Monkeys blew their noses
Abdul started dancing             -- the Monkeys were also dancing
Abdul pulled his ears             -- the Monkeys pulled their ears
Abdul raised his hands            -- the Monkeys raised their hands
Abdul threw his cap on the ground ............
          ........ one of the monkeys jumped down from the tree, picked the
cap, walked upto Abdul; slapped him and said "Idiot!!! Do you think ONLY
YOU HAVE A GRANDFATHER?????"

The words of Mr. Matt Kodama (thank you) led me to look further into
the Dead Can Dance show (this is my last post on the subject... I 
*PROMISE* :-).  Anyway, it would seem that they are also playing at
the Greek Theatre (as I had said originally.  *sigh*) on August 9th.
Apparently tickets went on sale yesterday (Sunday).  See 
http://www.usfca.edu/usf/neufeld/concerts.html for a little more info.

        You bet freedom sucked! All that fuckin' dust and shit on the
ground, and anyone trying to dance just a little more than shaking around
either got the shit kicked out of him (I was near the speakers...) or
choked on the dust he kicked around...
        Without being age-discreminatory, I thought that overrall the crowd
wasn't too young but way to immmature... I got the impression that people
coughed up 20 bucks just for the "scene", the "vibe" and not at all for the
music, at least for the majority... And why should they come for the music?
DJ Dan's set was way uninspired that night, and the rest was just lame...
Maybe I'm just losing taste for breakbeats... I can understand laura's
critique about freedom: compared to the parties in england like
megatripolis, freedom was pathetic...
        And without wanting to be an asshole, what the fuck's up with the
tents!?! I mean, this was only a one night celebration, not a fuckin'
weekend drug-a-thon (which are tight, by the way...)

        Well overrall, freedom sucked, and the only I liked about it was
the bus ride to and back... I met some of the coolest people: It doesn't
get any better than riding in a ex-hippie bus going at about 50 mph with
happy ravers, a garth + jeno tape ripping it up, and bowls of weed being
passed around like flyers...

        Went to Mantra, though... as the VM says, "fuckin' awesome"...
Surge, Theta-blip and Dutch absolutely ripped it up, and Neil really spun
some good orbital-type shit as well... The only thing I didn't like at that
party was the music was so good in both rooms and I couldn't be both places
at once...

        Catch you maybe at f-8's cypertrance party... Mars ripz!

Hi Dalshire -
 Couldn't agree more.  It's really distressing, isn't it?  It seems to   
come in waves.  I think the problem is that the list is really large now,   
and if you include enough people, then the number of loudmouth,   
offensive, thoughtless, and negative people eventually gets high enough   
to be really irritating.  It's the bad apples spoiling the barrel.   
 Remember that these negative posts all come from a half-dozen people,   
and there are 900 more out there that wish they'd put a lid on it.

Waiting for the wave to pass...

Wow, I am really put on the floor by what I have read on this list.  I   
have
known about the sfrave list for about a year, when I started getting into
raves and such, but I never really had the time to be able to read all   
the
mail.  This summer I figured I would get a chance to read the mail and   
find
out more info on raves around Northern California, since I have more time   
to
go.  Maybe it is not my place to say what I am going to say, because I   
have
just put my name in on the list, but it stuns me to see how much negative
mail is here.  I have always thought of people who attend raves to be   
those
few people in society who could accept the thoughts of others.  I did not
think that they would be telling others that they should go home if they   
do
not attend a certain rave, or complaining about imposing beliefs upon   
others.
 What has happened?

My best friend, who introduced me to raves (she posted as "Annie", maybe   
you
all remember her) is the most loving person. Through her I have met some   
of
the best people at raves and on my own as well, but this bunch of letter   
does
not seem to be what is idea behind raves.  Do we not attend raves because   
we
love the music that is spun?  Are we not there because we love the music,   
not
because we are there to say we went?  It seems to me that where one   
person
goes to do what that person wants to do is up to them.  It does not make   
them
any kind of person. other than someone who knows what they want to do.  I   
do
not understand what is going on here.  Please someone tell me that is
different at other times and that this is just a time when there is a lot   
of
negative energy circulating.

if you any poor person wants to listen to show, we can hang out on the 
hill right above the greek theatre. and stuff. DCD would be an incredible 
show, but 30 bucks?

I've been to parties where this happens... and I'm not the usual
crystal-wearin' clone, either.  I've got a pretty healthy dose of
skepicism.  But we (humans) don't understand half of the energies around us
(if that), and I've SEEN shit happen I can't explain.  Like when the energy
of a party is manipulated into something dark and dominating, full of
tricks and lies.   I've seen it done more with visuals than music,
actaully, but both are direct pipelines into vulnerable minds.

...and every one of those similar parties I've been to ended THIS way, with
a few VERY dedicated, powerful people taking a stand and keeping their
roots in LOVE and making those sublime choices based on the REAL POWER of
that love.   Yeah brother Wowser, yeah sister Karen, help DOES and WILL
come to those who are willing to take a real stand.   FREEDOM!

You are too harsh, IMHO.   I've been to the Megatripolis club next to
Charing Cross many times, back in the day when it was good, too.  Don't
expect all scenes to have the same vibes.  Freedom did what it could, for
being a massive commerical event.  It wasn't magical, for sure, but it was
nice.  It seems you had set expectations beforehand that were sure to be
dashed.

First you bitch about dust, and then about the tents?   Um, maybe tents are
a good way to escape dust while you try to do certain things?

Sorry, but I had a good time, and am trying to see the positives, not
trying to tear down the promoters because it wasn't like Glastonbury or
whatever...

	How many different types of techno do people like around SF? How 
many times have people said they would like to hear this or that. Well, 
with at least 6 systems with there, you will be able to find the vibe 
that comes with the music which pulls you the most at that time. We don't 
seem to have many multi system parties around here (maybe because it is 
so hard to get enough people to come out and fully populate one system 
let alone a hard techno/trance and then a second housier system...) but 
when you get enough people out there, there will be a vibe to suit 
everyone. So why is that competing?
	And who said the organizers do not want rave camp there? It makes 
sense to any community to put the big noisey things away from the 
sleeping areas. Systems like the Wicked system and ones that some people 
are talking about bringing up (to a very wide expanse of land where you 
can be really silly with the amount of bass you produce) would rattle the 
poles of tents. Since Burning Man consists of more than a rave, I think 
it is common courtesy to point the larger systems away from main camp. I 
may have said in an eariler post that the gate people were not exactly 
happy with people trying to get in for free because "they were with the 
sound system", or that the organizers may not have been happy that some 
people in rave camp didn't know how to clean up after themselves, but 
since I never talked to Larry and company in person, and only heard my 
information from people who ran the medical tent and a few who worked as 
builders or cleaners, I cannot say that they were either happy or unhappy 
with the raving community as a whole.

> Let's face it, there will be 2 separate events out there; Burning Man
> with its "Hell" theme, whatever that means, and the rave camp.

	Hell is on Saturday night... And is a short bicycle ride away if 
you camped at the rave camp. Two events? Depends on what one does with 
oneself out there now doesn't it?

     High 9's on the rant'O'meter... one of the best e-mails I've seen!

     Pavement doing Velvet Underground covers.  I loved the use of the 
     fritter as a symbol of fleeting time, and the closure of the

They don't look like they go to raves. 
     
<like aliens, and supergyros, i guess>
     
I was kinda irritated for a minute, then i realized that i

well, maybe from a distance. 
     
them aliens are unpredictable as it is. 
     
besides theyve prolly got super-cool barbarella drugs.
     
and just say 'no' to PCP
     
does the gov't have any alien tranquilizers?
     
maybe we show them TV until they pass out from 'days-of-our-lives' shock.

	I think there was one Chrysalis which approached the type of vibe
that burning man had, the first one in the amce. The one where things were
going so well that the needles kept running (ok, so the vibe never hit
that really high point because of the needles jumping, but it was there). 
Out on the playa, you could feel the energy of the people dancing getting 
caught up in the vortexes coming off the playa (and for those of you who 
don't believe in energy or whatever, go out to the playa and feel your 
hairs stand on end - that is what I will call th energy of the playa) and 
getting sucked off into the night. There were those that brought their 
citiness with them, and those that still felt they were not enough, but  
there were many that could let themselves go and run out into the dark of 
the playa, strip and yell and scream. Try that at a Sunset and see how 
people react... Being strong/self-sufficient enough to pack a backpack 
and leave for another country and journeying with loads of other people 
who you have never met, and who you don't know if you have anything else 
in common with but the desire to journey in this or that place and 
experience things with them, is not exactly an easily task. To some, that 
journey and the experiences you take with you is what raving and 
traveling is about.
	How many parties are there that if you don't want a sticker on
you, you will not offend someone by saying no thanks. How many parties are
there that if you don't want glitter all over you, you can not have it on
you without hurting someone's feelings (granted they probably are just
trying to be nice, but I may have reasons why I don't want glitter on my,
like I don't want it on me for the next 10 weeks)? How many parties are
there were people free comfortable enough to prance about naked? And why
don't people like other people to prance about naked? If the same unity 
that we experienced at burning man existed at the above parties, why do I 
have these questions?

	Tristan is right about not being able to find ANYTHING quite like 
Burning Man anywhere in the states. And if people would look at what 
Tristan says instead of how he is saying it, they might actually find 
something worth listening to (one can separate the two and object to how 
it is said while still getting something out of what was said). I said 
something about PLUR eariler to the effect that it is easy to apply it 
when it is convienent, well, here is a time when it seems people are 
striking back at someone who is not from SF, has been rasied what is 
probably a more sulf-sufficient manner than we Americans are used to 
seeing and who happens to be a bit too blunt for many people, but who I 
have seen say what I believe to be some spot on accounts of how things 
have been. And maybe his views of unity are different because of this... 
	To a degree, you will find this attitude with people who are
self-sufficient because they are not going to let you hide from the shit
you don't want to deal with - to a degree. Everyone can come up to burning
man, for some it might be a positive life changing event, for others it
might be hell (theme for saturday night in main camp left aside). To each 
their own experience.

Please let's not lose sight of how subjective all this is.  What's dark
and foreboding to one person can be intense, focused, and transcendental
to another.  Was it "tricks and lies" or fun and games?
Good and evil only exist relative to a chosen value system.
Ultimately, too much white light will blind you just as much as pure
blackness.

However, I don't think wowser's concern about spiritual manipulation 
within the rave scene is *completely* without merit.  A few on this list
may remember the uproar that occurred a couple of years ago when Matthew 
Fox, new-age Episcopalian priest brought over a group from Sheffield,
England who were incorporating rave elements into a religious service, and
were eager to spread their message here in San Francisco.  A group of us
met with Matthew Fox to express our concerns about raving being used in
an exploitative and manipulative manner.  It was a constructive meeting of
the minds (IMO), and the "Nine O'Clock Service" ravemass  went off in the
basement of St. Patrick's with much media attention, and very positive
reviews.  To make a long story short, the Sheffield group disbanded some
time after that after its leader Chris Brain was discovered to be sexually
abusing some of his disciples.

You see, it's really not the brand of spirituality that matters.  Satanism,
Christianity, PLUR, etc.; these are basically the tools that people
use to help each other become more aware of the forces of nature that seem
to come from outside the observable universe.  Of course, power vampires
can use these concepts for their own egocentric ends, and *that's* where a
potential danger might reside, though I suppose it is a person's right
to give up their individuality and will to a "leader" -  we all do this
to some extent.

Of course, some tools (like guns) are more tailored for abuse, and history
has a way of demonstrating this, which is why Christianity gets such a
bum rap sometimes.

Anyway, I don't think anyone needs to worry about the possible detrimental
effects of rituals, imagery, spells, on ravers.  Those things must
quickly give way to the beats, or everyone  starts getting bored.  No
ritual can replace what most of us get on the dance floor.  The ceremonies
I've witnessed at raves succeed because they are nonspecific in their
intent other than to bring us closer to each other, the music, and perhaps
the nature surrounding us.  If the message starts becoming more structured
that that, like if one person says "let me show you THE way" then it is
no longer a rave: the ravers tune out, while those who want to follow are
free to do so.

>...and every one of those similar parties I've been to ended THIS way, with

Whatever. Maybe it just took time for everyone's e to kick in.  Either
way, it can often take a while for a good vibe to take hold, for many 
reasons.  Interpret it however you like, but I agree that each of us has
the power to help spread it.

so i went to LA this weekend to check out one of their massives - 
stratosphere - to check out a friend spin and to experience LA energy 
again. unfortunetly they lost their indoor venue and decided to throw teh 
party in the desert. unfortunetly because they obviously wernt prepared 
for an outdoor party. needless to say it was total chaos come morning. at 
least a few 
generaturs gave out, and there was no music by daylite. after getting 
our truck stuck in desert sand and having a tow truck rescue us, we got 
to teh site about 3 - 3.3o am. at this time teh desert was dark with 
beautiful stars and the lights of lancaster in the distance. the middle 
soundsystem was playing some sweet goa (dj theo) and a shitload of lazers 
were firing off into the desert. people there seemed really disconnected 
from communal vibe but quite a few were incredibly into the music, like 
ive never seen in SF, but is common in LA. people just mob the speakers, 
hanging from them and heads in bass bins and a thick wall of pulsating 
human flesh absorbing the thick trance sounds. then that soundsystem gave 
out, and there was teh remaining two playing less hard trance and some 
trancy house. now the sun is illuminating the desert from below teh 
horizon and the tall yucca desert trees and and surrounding mountains 
turn colors with the approaching sunrise. there is problems with another 
soundsystem and only one is left. and then something quite amazing 
started to happen. people began gathering around the one soundsystem as 
one group, just crowding the speakers with people on top of 'em grooving, 
everyone fell in sinch and hands flew into the air as lite continued to 
illuminate teh desert. with every pulse of bass the crowd pulsed closer 
and together. this happened for about a half hour, till another 
soundsystem was turned on, one of teh larger ones with dj trance droppin 
the wax. the sun peeked over teh horizon and people scattered 
again. for an hour or so dj trance played some hard house and trance and 
then the last of teh generators gave out - and thus brought the party to 
an end. 
for some time i wandered off into the desert and had quite a spiritual 
experience with the immense yucca trees and other desert life. the sun 
was getting quite warm, and i just relaxed under teh shade of one of them.

and then we left.

there was quite a bit of potential, especially with that beautiful 
location (minus all teh garbage people left) but it was just too 
unorganized. from my experiences LA energy is quite different, but a well 
organized event there could really focus that energy into something 
wonderful. i hope they all learned something from their experience.

an interesting moment...
	- i was strolling a dirt road walking to our car when a group of 
ravers yell from their car "friends and family"  and take off. wearing my 
FnF laminate i just had a feeling that someone would recognize it, and 
felt a breif moment of solidarity with those ravers speeding away down 
the road in a trail of dust, knowing that somewhere, some time ago we were 
getting rocked at an FnF.

well thats the breif version of my weekend,

energy,
tom

I must say I'm really surprised to see all the negative reviews about
Freedom.:(????

I was kinda hyped on it since I missed it last year but all my friends 
went. So I was expecting a lot when I got there...and they delivered.

-A nice secluded, non-bustable location with plenty of parking and a  
pseudo-dance arena.

-Everything seemed to be well organized, lines flowed and the security     
 (and owners) were cool. I could see how things could have gotten 
 easily out of hand considering the number of people they were trying
 to cram through that one lane driveway.

-A top notch sound system (you could hear the bass all the way from the 
 top of the hill in the morning.

-Dj's ripped it up! Dan played some sick ass breaks! Unfortunately, 
 (and I think it was Dan too) Someone hit a double beat soooo bad it
 almost knocked me sober.

-The free fruit in the morning just hit the spot!

I was impressed, massives can be so...yucky! This was definitely one
of the better massives that I've been to. Yeah the gangsta element was
present, but as the evening progessed it dwindled to nonexistent

 It was good to see all the people that I haven't seen in a while and 
to meet all those that I've been meaning to run into. (I'm not even 
going to begin to name off names)

To those that had negative experiences, *find us SF Ravers!!!*! We 
don't bite and we're not hard to find. And together , I think we have 
enough vibe to fill a small country ;). 

Special thanks to Martin and the crew for yet another fantastic 
production...and I'll see all of you at the BBQ!!!!!!

Hugs,

CT

P.s. Branka, I hope you're leg is okay. I told you that you couldn't
     breakdance on the dirt! ;)

:) Hey people :)
I've only just joined the Sf raves mailing list a week or so ago, and I've
been patiently reading everybody's stuff, but I can no longer passively sit
back and watch. I have to get involved, become part of the cyberscene, if you
know what I mean.
Anyway, the main purpose and inspiration for me writing this is note to let
people know that I have been to many, many, many  raves and kickin' clubs and
parties in my life, all over the world, and the club called Mantra (on Sunday
nights) is without doubt one of the best I've been to.
In fact I wouldn't really call it a club, because the word "club" for me has
a kind of commercial, meat-market, bad vibe tone to it. Mantra is like a
secret underground party whose atmosphere reminds me of the first rave events
in England back in 1986-88. (You had to have been there to know what I'm
talking about, and maybe some of you were??)
I've been here in San Francisco only 3 months now (I'm an older hard-core
raver from England) and I've been going out to parties/raves/clubs about 4-5
times a week, always endlessly searching for the right people/place that has
good music, high energy, positive people etc. But I've never come across a
place that carries so much clear spirit as Mantra.
It will transform you and transport you to a higher vibration. This place is
sacred space, a trance-endental experience that is uplifting and rejuvenating
- food for the soul.
It helps if you're into psychedelic goa trance 'cos that's the music in the
main space (the DJs are Dutch, Surge and Theta Blip) 
But even if you don't like this kind of music, I swear you will LOVE it after
a while 'cos the vibe is so strong and pure and beautiful. 
Anyway if you need a different sound you can always check out the other space
- "The Temple of Osiris" where DJ Neal spins amazing down-tempo-lush-techno.
Much as I love trance music, I've been sucked in many times to this room
because the music is incredibly addictive.
I'm so happy to have stumbled across Mantra, and now I wake up on Mondays to
start work (after 2-3 hours sleep) and I feel refreshed and invigorated,
instead of trashed and knackered!! A new experience for me, for sure.
You know, I could go on and on and on (even more than I already have, believe
me!) about how much I love  everything within Mantra, but I think I've said
enough for now. I'm sure you all get the picture.
All I can say is come and check it out for yourself, it's a really special,
magical place, and surprisingly not many people seem to know about it yet
(though I predict that this is about to change soon).

Blessed Be

There is a big difference between being blunt, and being an asshole. 
Asking someone if they are still in diapers because they have 
reservations about going to BM certainly puts their comments in the latter 
category.  I am so tired of people being beaten with a bunch of PLURilist 
crap. I will say it again: PLUR DOES NOT EXIST IN A VOID! If you want to 
receive, you have to offer. If you are not willing to give, don't expect 
to get.

Ah, more hardcore fans :).  Through a joint effort, some of us acquired 
tickets by leaving 'Light' and  (thank you Ben who borrowed my 
truck) driving to the nearest payphone (15-20 mountain road miles away) 
...upon his returning we broke camp and took one 
last plunge into the deep river pool before saying 
our goodbyes..home through the Sacto Inferno to San Rafael by 8:30 PM.

Definitely, let's all meet at the Greek, it's a small intimate place and 
just thinking of experiencing DCD there, of entering their labyrinth... 
...sends chills down my spine...............

~~peace,  Maureen

Sorry to say you went to the wrong party. You should have checked out
Sweet a much smaller event. No fancy lighting or visual, just very
good music and an awsome vibe. It hapened at a restorant of all places.

*SIGH* Where to begin?

I was not aware the hexagons were consider satanic symbols. I guess we 
better start pulling down all those stop signs, because they are satanic 
symbols. Hey, everyone, don't pay attention to those stop signs! They are 
signs of the devil! Go Go GO!!!!!

I can only imagine that you are referring to a *PENTAGRAM* Pentagrams 
have been long associated with both white and black magik, but I suppose 
the distinction is lost on you.

I would love a further definition of "sterotypical satanic crap." Upside 
down crosses, baby coffins, goats heads? Any of those there? 

While I find your observations interesting, they seem *very* subjective. 
Have you ever stopped to consider that mask was "ram-looking" because you 
wanted it to be? Did you ever stop to consider that they were calling out 
to a daemon by another name, because that is what you wanted to hear?
Is it possible that you are confusing paganism with satanism, because you 
honestly don't know the difference? Have you ever seen the former as 
seperate and distinct from the latter?

I would like to know the title of that song. The concept of someone 
actually playing a tracks such as that seems rather far-fetched. Anyone 
else that has gone to ComeUnity ever heard such a track?

Funny, I didn't know that Niels was representitve of ComeUnity. Didn't 
ever hear him mention it either. Or is he just part of the conspiracy? 
Who are 'they?' People that don't agree with you? 

While I don't necessarily agree with the method with which Niels chose to 
respond(although he appears very knowledgeable about Judaism and 
Christianity, even in a tirade,) I offer him kudos in one important area: 
insight. While I saw no overt mention of Christianity in your original message,
the subtext was certainly present, and he caught on.

Personally, I feel that anyone that capitalizes the word truth, as you 
have, feels that they know what it is, not just for yourself, but for 
everyone, and has the annoying tendancy to go on ad naueseum about it, 
which is probably why you have the opinion that people jump down your 
throat when you choose to talk about it.

Do you purport knowledge of what the "REAL" vibe is for me, or for anyone 
else? If so, you are fooling yourself. Music is *A* language. And as a 
language, it can portray love, hate, melancholy, desire, apathy, and 
almost any other emotion, just as any other language. The listener also 
has a role in the interpretation of music, what a particular song means 
to *them* Music can be communal, or deeply, deeply, personal.

Freedom? What Freedom? To listen to you tell us the "Truth"? Sorry, I 
think the world has had enough messiah's to last it a lifetime...

Oops! Well, except for comic value the above is pretty worthless. Someone 
was so kind as to point out that stop signs are OCTAGONS and not 
HEXAGONS. I stand with bowed head....

I wasn't planning on entering this discussion but you should realize that 
pentagrams are spiritual symbols to many faiths other than satanism, such 
as Jewish Cabala and Christian Cabala. When you say you are posting "In 
Love of Truth" you must realize your posts are only half-truths at 
best. Also, you can't be offended when someone calls your posts 
"Christian". To acknowledge satan, one must believe in the christian 
dogma (or a deriviative thereof).

Can't believe i'm posting,

Hi All!

 I don't get to the City often as I do not have a car but I would Really 
like to go to Beautiful People this Saturday. So I would like to ask if 
anyone out there in cyberland is in a position to give a lift. I would of 
course be happy to help with gas but that is all I can afford. If someone 
would like me to drive I can (legally!!) do that as well.

 

THANX IN ADVANCE!!!!!  =)



Ran

Someone told me about this book they recently read (perhaps it was a movie),
anyway it was about a person who "landed" in another, rather "primitive"
world.  This person took advantage of the tribe and ended up attempting to
rape one it's members.  The tribe came upon this wrong doing and stood there,
in unity.  Without internvention, the attacker of course could not cary
through with his crime.

I am very sad about our dear brother Matt Lanier's decision to leave the
list.  I certainly hope he recondiders his decision, and realizes the value
of his input as a person and as a member of his faith.  I am more sad about
the passive tolerance and even support of such negative, degrading and
disrespectful posts such as those by our list mate Neils Mayer.  I suppose I
can now agree it be high time we take Todd's preverbial baseball bat to this
thread before any more damage is done.

pluR,

P.S. Matt: ...fear no evil...

P.S. Neils: I apologize for my politeness.

>From July 10-15th I'll be heading for my yearly camping trip with alot of
friends from the Sacramento and various other places. There will be  some
friends that are in a band that will perform and I will be spinning there.
A house set and a trance set. I've been saving up a trance set to blow
these campers minds away. Some of them are not into the scene and probally
haven't heard much of the music. So I'm going to try and take them on a
ride of there life. So, if anyone can spare some of that positive energy
please send it my way to help me out with my sets and as I start spinning,
I'll let that energy flow into me and then I will send  it right back out 2
folds into the night and hopefully hit everyone with a great force of that
positive energy. This will be the most people I've ever spun for. There
will be about 30 or so people there all having a great time. This is the
9th annual campout, and it get better every year.

Now for the hard part. I'm suppose to be leaving either tonight or tomorrow
morning, but I also have a playoff and championship softball game to play
weds night at 9pm and 10:10pm which means leaving at about midnight weds
and driving about 2 hours past Sacramento or not going to the game and
driving up to Sac meeting up with friends and caravaning there. I want to
go with everyone, since I'm driving alone. It would feel like I'm with
people on the way to the campsite, and being there from day one, or driving
at midnight alittle worn out from the games and driving alone. Even If I
wait until thursday, I'd still  be driving alone, and I'd miss a day and a
half of camping. So, what should I do? Any thoughts

Tim (knucklehead)

Speaking of geometric shapes, what about the PENTAGON! Isn't that
satanic? When I was in my senior year of High School, I got to
participate in this science awards thingie where they gave us kiddies
visits to of interest in DC. I visited the Pentagon because I was
interested in digital signal processing and got to speak to some DSP
experts there... I also felt a strong, dark presence, during that visit
but that might have been a hangover from shaking vice-president Bush's
hand.

I bet every country we've helped destroy (Vietnam, Iraq, East Timor,
Guatemala, etc) probably would agree with me that the Pentagon is
Satanic.

Also, what about those lighted Christmas star thingies that people in
some parts of Orange County (Southern California) put on their houses
during Xmas season. Those are five sided stars too, but they're not
upside down....

To quote from The Illuminatus trilogy by Robert Anton Willson and Robert 
Shay:

"There are a million holy books, in words and pictures and even in music, 
and they all tell the same story.  The most important lesson of all, the 
one that explains all the horrors and miseries of the world, is that you 
can get off The Wheel of Life at any point and declare that your trip is 
over.  That's okay for any given man or woman, if their ambitions are 
modest.  The trouble starts when, out of fear of further movement - out 
of fear of growth, out of fear of change, out of fear of Death, out 
of any kind of fear - such a person tries to stop the Wheel literally, by 
stopping everybody else.  That's when the two great bum trips begin: 
religion and government.  The only religion consistant with the whole 
wheel is private and personal: the only government consistant with it is 
self-government.  Who ever tries to lay his trip on others is acting from 
terror, and will soon resort to terror as a weopon if other's won't 
except the trip through simple persuasion.  Nobody who undersdtands the 
whole Wheel will do that, however, for such people understand that every 
man and every woman and every child is the Self-Begotton one: Jesus 
mother-fucking Christ himself."

Tristan.

Hey I happen to LIKE goats.  
 Why is it that they get this bad rap with being tied in with satan and such?
 Why not like, a chihuahua, or something (that's mainly because I don't like
chihuahuas)...

If it's than Pan thang (and I don't mean Peter), Well, he was an allright
joval sprite anyways...  I mean, ok the guy had cloved hooves instead of feet
and a sexdrive like a rabbit, but hey, we all have our faults...

Excellent threat dude! Baseball bat -- now there's a tool of divine
christian retribution if I've ever seen one! If you can't understand
it, destroy it! That's PLUR for ya!

Destroying interesting topics is an old Christian tradition -- like
when they burned the library at Alexandria (which amongs other things
contained extensive medical knowledge that some claim was as good as
anything we had up till the 1900's). This, more than any other act of
culture-reversion brought forth by the Christians precipitated the dark
ages. A time of disease, stupidity, poverty, war, and suffering in
which Christianity finally thrived, took root like a weed, and drove
out all that was good in human culture....

     Whoa!  And the "This is What You Want, This is What You Get" of the

     The flyer I got while I was in LA quoted:
     
     "Reinforced against the elements of darkness at a Legal Venue, with a 
     county approved Permit, Police Cooperation, Fire Dept Cooperation, a

     Wow... I wonder if they took their lawyer to the desert with them, or 
     if he/she stayed at the 'Legal' venue?

so i went to LA this weekend to check out one of their massives - 
stratosphere - to check out a friend spin and to experience LA energy 
again. unfortunetly they lost their indoor venue and decided to throw teh 
party in the desert. unfortunetly because they obviously wernt prepared 
for an outdoor party. needless to say it was total chaos come morning. at 
least a few 
generaturs gave out, and there was no music by daylite. after getting our 
truck stuck in desert sand and having a tow truck rescue us, we got to 
teh site about 3 - 3.3o am. at this time teh desert was dark with 
beautiful stars and the lights of lancaster in the distance. the middle 
soundsystem was playing some sweet goa (dj theo) and a shitload of lazers 
were firing off into the desert. people there seemed really disconnected 
from communal vibe but quite a few were incredibly into the music, like 
ive never seen in SF, but is common in LA. people just mob the speakers, 
hanging from them and heads in bass bins and a thick wall of pulsating 
human flesh absorbing the thick trance sounds. then that soundsystem gave 
out, and there was teh remaining two playing less hard trance and some 
trancy house. now the sun is illuminating the desert from below teh 
horizon and the tall yucca desert trees and and surrounding mountains 
turn colors with the approaching sunrise. there is problems with another 
soundsystem and only one is left. and then something quite amazing 
started to happen. people began gathering around the one soundsystem as 
one group, just crowding the speakers with people on top of 'em grooving, 
everyone fell in sinch and hands flew into the air as lite continued to 
illuminate teh desert. with every pulse of bass the crowd pulsed closer 
and together. this happened for about a half hour, till another 
soundsystem was turned on, one of teh larger ones with dj trance droppin 
the wax. the sun peeked over teh horizon and people scattered 
again. for an hour or so dj trance played some hard house and trance and 
then the last of teh generators gave out - and thus brought the party to 
an end. 
for some time i wandered off into the desert and had quite a spiritual 
experience with the immense yucca trees and other desert life. the sun 
was getting quite warm, and i just relaxed under teh shade of one of them.
     
and then we left.
     
there was quite a bit of potential, especially with that beautiful 
location (minus all teh garbage people left) but it was just too 
unorganized. from my experiences LA energy is quite different, but a well 
organized event there could really focus that energy into something 
wonderful. i hope they all learned something from their experience.
     
an interesting moment...
 - i was strolling a dirt road walking to our car when a group of 
ravers yell from their car "friends and family"  and take off. wearing my 
FnF laminate i just had a feeling that someone would recognize it, and 
felt a breif moment of solidarity with those ravers speeding away down the 
road in a trail of dust, knowing that somewhere, some time ago we were 
getting rocked at an FnF.
     
well thats the breif version of my weekend,
     
energy,
tom

One of the promoters of the event was Jason Jay. Anyone on the socal-raves
maling list would have told you NOT to attend this event. Jason Jay is...
how should we say... not the most respected promoter in LA. Stay away from
any events promoted by this man, even Magic Wensdays (which just got moved
to the Roxy.. huh), they are trouble. (Last fiasco was Futurama 2).

I think the only reason he went to Stratosphere was to see a good friend who was 
supposed to be spinning there, otherwise I'm sure he woulda been at the Light 
campout with all you other lucky folk! :)

OOOOPPPSSS!!

Sorry all! I live in Santa Cruz. ( cheeks a nice scarlet red )



Hi All!

 I don't get to the City often as I do not have a car but I would Really 
like to go to Beautiful People this Saturday. So I would like to ask if 
anyone out there in cyberland is in a position to give a lift. I would of 
course be happy to help with gas but that is all I can afford. If someone 
would like me to drive I can (legally!!) do that as well.

 

THANX IN ADVANCE!!!!!  =)

And how are people to know YOU aren't interested without asking?
Granted, it would be nice to have at least one "Hey what's up" for
every few "Want some E?"s.  But then I rarely approach people to begin
conversations so I ain't complaining.

It is somewhat disappointing how many times I've offered water to
people who's eye I catch (i.e., no interrupting of the dance-flow
involved) on the dance floor and gotten looks that seem to say "Get out
of my face".  But hey!

Everybody, please fell free to bug ME about this and anything else for
that matter, if I'm not interested in the offer or conversation I'll
let you know--assuming I'm capable (please take an incoherent
mumbling/rambling as "No thanks, maybe later").

Tim

    DCD-  is the band Dead Can Dance; completley non-rave music. 
Simply Beautiful! They are playing at the Greek Friday, August 9th.
I just purchased tickets: $25 ( plus the fucking $4 BASS service charge )
for general admission. Show starts at 8p.m.

	Black German Shepards are something to look out for, I hear.  There are 
some religions in today's world you don't have to be dogmatic at all to worry 
about.  I doubt you'll see them throwing raves though.

Wowser,

I think you're mistaking Satan with Clubland (TM). THey are both very
similar, and very different at the same time :-). Even worse, it sounds
like you were tripping pretty hard (did you take LSD? Did someone
"spike" your drink, or did you just forget to take your Lithium
supplement?). Did anybody else even see this kind of stuff happen at a
Come/Unity? 

Granted, I've only been to a few Come/Unities and the closest I can
imagine to this kind of stuff happening was that Zen Monk that did some
chanting, healing prayers, and bell ringing at the Malachy benefit in
'94 (i think). Maybe Richard Sun did his spectacle as well, which has
the evil content of, say, Cirque du Soleil. But hey, then again, even
the most benign Barnum and Bailey Clown can become EVIL under the right
circumstances!! And remember EVIL spells LIVE backwards!

Sometimes they like getting "dark" at raves (and industrial, rock,
etc); sometimes the DJ can do it without additional circus performers
setting the mood (e.g. R.Sun); sometimes they'll take you from "dark"
to "light" just to give you that redemptive feeling. There's a good
message to take home from all this -- look at how easily others can
manipulate your mood, then extrapolate that to President Clinton, Ralph
Reed, Bob Dole, or Rush Limbaugh speaking on TV or at some rally. Then
ask yourself about freedom of speech and democracy, and how free you
actually are.

Anyways, I think this "evil rave" thing, if it ever really happened at
all, is more a catharsis than real honest-to-god devil worshipping.
Much in the way people like seeing a good scary or violent movie,
people may just be getting in touch with their primal jungleistic inner
being that modern society (and especially Christianity) has repressed.
I've been to raves like that and I like it because of the primality it
evoked. I'd only be worried if they started telling you explicitly to
"worship satan" but then again, I'd be just as annoyed if they asked
you to "worship god".

At the same time I would have to agree that these could be pretty
psychologically powerful moments, and they CAN be used for the purpose
of "doing good" or "doing bad" -- I sincerely doubt that Come/Unity is
attempting the latter.  I think the same mass evocation thing happens
in a Gospel Choir going into a frenzy of dancing and singing (too bad
they mix in xtian symbology, but to my way of thinking, it's no worse
than using satanic symbology), or in the Nazi events that mixed
spectacle, music, rhythm, and an invocation of pagan, barbaric symbols
of the past to evoke conformity/strength. Clearly the latter was "bad"
but in many ways no worse than similar church-lead anti-communist
(communists being "bad" because they were atheistic) religious rallies
in the 50's-70's that helped us (for example) commit genocide in
Vietnam and throughout Central and South America.  The frenzy of a
large group of people can be powerful, scary and evil. Or good. 

One of these days people will just "do it" (the mass evocation thing,
not the athletic footwear thing) just for the sake of doing it, without
a message, without an ethos, without a war/cause to rally people ...
just because it seems like just as good a thing as going to work,
brushing your teeth, taking a big steaming dump, going to sleep, sex,
or whatever. A good deed and a good thing freely chosen. Perhaps
raving/dacing/communing is a way to "do it" without having to worry
about being psychologically manipulated (as it would in a gospel
church, nazi spectacle, or Christian anti-communist rally). 

I believe people should be free to choose individually what to do --
for example, some Jews believe that your good deed freely chosen
(without a church/temple or society telling you it is "good" or placing
a raver-approved PLUR stamp on it) turns you from a waste of skin into
something that makes your role in the universe "worth it" and makes the
the creation of "the universe" worth it because it enabled you to do
that good thing. (that worthiness and eternal betterment IS YOUR "SOUL"
-- THAT WHICH WILL DEFINE YOUR BRIEF ROLE IN HISTORY FOR ALL TIME,
nothing more). PLUR, as ethos, is completely pathetic in comparison
with this view. IMHO, if you can define it with a word, it's probably
not all-encompassing enough, and any word can be used in a lie. By not
making it trite and pronounceable, you're preventing that. So when
Christians talk about Heaven, Hell, Sin, Soul, and Satan, these are
just convenient comic-book concepts making some deeply abstract
existential concepts palatable to the masses... Taking these too
seriously as concepts/realities in and of themself is the reason why
most Christians are so fucked up. Taking the bible for anything more
than a piece of literature is also very misguided. The bible is more of
a literary time-capsule of words that you cannot interpret accurately
in this day and age (hermeneutics). Literal adherence to the words is
folly -- most Christians interpret the bible freely already (where
convenient). So feel free to read and interpret the Book, but remember
that it's no more relevant to life today than a play by William
Shakespeare or some Greek tragedy.

Well, I'm struggling through the work day here and am pretty unfocused, so

What? Yes the special effects rocked and it had potential but the plot
sucked. "Oh yeah I know lets use a computer virus on them!"  PLEEASE....
And like no one would notice a huge chunk of the moon going black while 
the mother shit passed in from of it... no one looks at the moon now a
days. If they going to spend 84 millions on the movie they might at least
get someone to give them technical advise, and a good writer to create a
belivable plot.

I'm still living and working in the afterglow from this weekend. Light 
Campout was one of the most incredible parties..
Lots of thanks to Gateway Systems for their love and energy, dragging 
that sweet soundsystem and the cool blue laser and the crates of oranges, 
bananas, peaches, plums, nectarines, grapes, breads, cookies, water, 
juices, generators, and all that jazz. thank you thank you thank you. 
Everyone should try to support Gateway and attend a couple of their 
parties every once in a while.. they are really great people

The Bible has been interpreted accurately.  See the New International
Version.  Not 100% accurately, of course, but closer to original intent
than any other written translation to date.

Crystal-clear to me.  This simply refers to Jesus, who was the Word, a
manifestation of the divine, and the architect of creation.  It's
completely relevant to life today, because it speaks of the beginning of
all that exists.
Shakespeare's plays and Greek tragedies contain many concepts that are also
relevant to life today.  The settings, no, but the stories, certainly.  In
light of this, it appears to me that your last statement in the top
paragraph of this e-mail is invalid.

believable plot? Aliens! Giant Spaceships! If you have a concept like that,
I figure you can make the plot as whacked out as you want... I admit I have
yet to see this film, but I'm really looking forward to it.

  From a recent review in the SJ MercNews the reviewer said to see
  this movie on the big screen since it would be "worthless" on video.

  Given all the special effects and action I'd tend to agree with that
  view.  I'm going to see it on the big screen if for nothing other than
  the visual fest is should provide. =:-)

Nope. One thing is to assume a set of axioms at the begning of the movie
and take it from there. In this case the axiom would be that Aliens exits
and they decidde to move into the neighborhood. But if you start making
random assumtions, and breaking any type of logic along the film you end
up with a bad plot (or an acid trip). Like someone said this aint no new
"Star Wars". But this has nothign to do with raves so I'll shut up.

Hello all,

This was my third Freedom and by far the bigesst and best for me.  My first
(or maybe 2nd or 3rd) rave of my life was Freedom in 93'.  In 93' I saw the
lasers on my way to the delta, said "what's that?", looked, went in,
Xplored and started my raving career that night...

Sound was great. Did anyone go up to the hill to dance?  It seemed just as
loud echoing off the hill as it did in the arena. Soo many tents this year.
I guess it's really catching on to have your own little chill tent.  I
borrowed a tent from my neighbor and gave it to kidee to set up.  I had no
idea what it looked like but I figured I would find my friends around it
some time in the night.  I never found my tent.  Ahhhhhh can you believe
it.  Not till it got light out did I find it.  The people were very
friendly.  I took my naval buddy, whose on leave right now to the party and
he was blown away by this party.  He was the one walking around with a
viedo camera, sorry if you got blinded by the light.

I have no idea what order the dj's went in but the music was sic all night,
except when someone bumped the tables during _____'s set.  I didn't see who
was up but he was after tony, and I bet he was pissed.  Sunrise was cool.
people were cool, music was cool, the dirt was uncool but as the saying
goes "God made dirt, dirt don't hurt"  (I'm not religious but thought it
might be humorus to say at this point on the list).  HHHHHMMMM what else
can I say.  Ohh yeah I met a few more sfravers and hung with the RFSF
(right front speaker family// I think this is catching on Sarvi)

Well I think this weekend I want to go check out Unlock the House.  I've
been hearing good reviews of this party in LA last Sat.

Anyone going to Movement tonight, I hear Tylor from LA is on with Kimo and
Graeme too.

Much love

There's already one SFR banner. You'll find it at F&F parties, I'm not sure
who's in possession of it though.

I want to hear some feedback on this...

I've been going to parties for over 5 years now...I've been DJing off and
on for almost 3...I think I've heard enough to know if a DJ is doing well
or not so well on a particular night. At freedom, I heard 3 DJ's beginning
with Dan, who were not having good nights. I'm not talking about
deck-bumping...I'm talking about falling out of a mix- or poor record
selection (songs that don't work together).

ALTHOUGH the music might have been good- meaning the songs were fresh, or
whatever, did anybody notice the bad mixing? Or were people just into the
music...or was the vibe cool enough that people didn't really care? I'm
just wondering, b/c it seemed pretty obvious to all my friends that
something was amiss...

This isn't a diss on the gathering, the dj's or anyone who had a good time
at the party...I'm just curious...

-peace-

I noticed exactly the same thing.  Since I started DJing a couple of months
back, I've been paying much more attention to the mixing styles and song
selection of the established DJ's out there, trying to pick up bits and
pieces along the way.

There were some killer songs played on Saturday, but the mixing was
definitely sub-par.  There was an instance during DJ Dan's set, for
instance, where I wasn't really listening to the music, as I was heading
out of the main arena for a little fresh air where the mix was _so_ off
that it totally caught my ear and made me turn around...Someone mentioned
that the decks got bumped at some point, so maybe that was the cause...

But there were alot of other goofups as well.  Alot of people seemed to be
"mixing on the fly" -- meaning that they were bring the cued record into
the mix before they had beat-matched them (they usually use the pitch
adjuster to get the records synched after a few measure or so).  That seems
to work for really housey tunes -- on smaller systems, but when you are
playing through a mega-wall-o'-sound, it really sounded off...And, yeah,
alot of the mixes sounded "forced", as if the tunes didn't really want to
go together, but were being mixed anyhow.

The jungle was pretty killer on the other hand, but some of the DJs had the
system up _way_ too loud.  The bass was totally getting clipped, and was
assaulting my ears to the point where I had to leave.

Oh yeah, and another thing...

Did anyone notice that the Simon Tune (Two Crates) got played twice within
the same 20 mins?  I thought I heard it, but I heard the second playing
from the bleachers and it could have been another heavy-bass acid track I
heard...

But, as Alex said, I'm not dissing on Freedom or the Gathering crew.  I
think that Martin is the only guy around who can pull off a massive like
that one.  No security problems, plenty of facilities (read: bathrooms),
and a generally cool crowd instead of the 'pose fests I've been to at other
massives (anyone check out Lucky Charms?)...

I think that some of the bad mixing was a product of the DJs being so
removed from the audience and having trainspotters weilding bright lights
and video cameras surrounding the booth.

My $.02

     I don't know dill about DJing but,
     
     Although the mix 'dropped' a couple times as far as song selection in 
     my opinion, what a lot of people considered DJ error sounded like an 
     artist just 'going deep'.  I LIKE to hear a double beat, or a rough 
     blend every once in a while, especially if the DJ takes their time 
     doing it ... fades it in real slow and tasty... so it's not shocking, 
     but pleasantly disorienting.  Usually it makes me dance a little less, 
     and listen a little more, but if I'm already *ON*, it's great.  It 
     takes me somewhere that neither disc alone or mixed with a clean 
     matched beat could.  ((Horrified bystanders may have observed the rare 
     "my left side is dancing to this, and my right side is dancing to 
     that" phenomenon several times around 3:00 am.))
     
     I actually started feeling kinda sorry for the DJs towards morning 
     though, as I could see better, that shed started looking really small. 
      Not only that but people were hanging off of it, and walking behind 
     the DJs all night... I'd be afraid to move around at all while 
     anything was spinning in there.

     I do agree with Alex somewhat though...
