rinsing the same site over and over is arguably worse than using a new site which is more heavily poulated. if residents face the same problem again and again, they can create much more effective detterents against the raves. if you only keep residents in a particular area awake fo one night, they’ll be a bit pissed off. do it 10 times in a year and they will fuck you up. we had residents ascociations on patrol round our area ayears back when we were dumb.
at least the organisers of this tried to source new sites, even if they did turn out bad. personally i think this has less to do with location and more to do with media. bottom line is the police need to been seen to keep order. we only faced real police opposition when the press were accusing them of being ineffective. the same is happenign ona national scale now, with guardian etc running regular peices on the re-emerging rave culture.
setting fires doesnt help either, we had a similar problem:
Ravers burn down cottage
Apr 10 2003
By John Williams
AN ILLEGAL rave on Saturday night ended with a deserted cottage being burnt down after 700 partygoers swarmed to Coldharbour.
Two fire engines went to battle the fire at 7.30am on Sunday after residents of the village endured a sleepless night, disturbed by four sound systems that took over a private field.
some guy climbed an abandoned two room house with his fire poi, you can guess the rest.
