Forums › Rave › Party Reports › Bye Bye Deramy Idolistic Views Of Raving (London party troubles)
Ive finally seen the dark side of raving, ive been to parties in london loads of times and there quality, but to all the parties ive been to theres been security and an entrance fee (£3-5). I neva minded this as inside the atmosphere was safe and there were no rudes to be seen,
This weekend i went to a nice big 4rig party in london which was free and had no security, which meant anyone cud cum, but all the local rudes heard/heard about the party and came down,
As soon as i got there i saw a guy get beaten to fuck and have everything jacked off him, his pockets were ripped apart his face was bleedin and that was right next to a rig
We did the sensible stay in a group close to the speakers and we saw no more trouble, i assumed the victim was either a dealer or well ruined an that i wud be fine, when the sun was cuming up we headed back to the car,
We walked round a corner and then i was on the floor and saw one of my mate gettin hit to the floor too, i recived a few kicks before i was quickly back to my feet and being punched a few times in the head, all there hands were in my coat & jeans pockets, (luckily i only had a wrap of md an sum green in a stash pocket) i pushed the two closest to me away and pretty much ran back to the rave,
I met my friend who had also been knocked too the floor a short way down the path, his face pretty swollen and the tell tale signs of a large black eye,
I still had not seen my other mate an his girlfriend who were alking with us, we headed back to a rig that we had another mate, found him and told sum rig members what was happenin (hope they sorted it out)
A few minutes later we found my mate an his girlfriend, they jacked his fone, but apparently the largest rude told them to leave his girlfriend alone
We then headed another route back to the car an met a few other people who had had a similar experince, including a midget, non of us were in the mood to go back so we just headed home,
So ive finally seen the darkside (did take a good few years tho), but we are easy targets, we’ll all have drugs money an a phone and most are too fucked to fight back, i definitly was id just taken my first eva hit of 2ct-7 as well as mushrooms and md, an its a dog eat dog world, there only learnin from example,
But enough about that 5mins of the rave, it was a heavy set up, with wicked music, had a well good time when i was dancin, an it aint put me off london, although i was havin 2nd thoughts about going to scum but i recon ill still go,
But I cant help but think that brused an blooded bodies were strewn in the long grass at that party, or how many fuckin phones, wallets & drugs thoses rudes had on sunday afternoon, hopefuly they wnt be smart enough to use the partylines on them,
Are you and your friends okay now ?
Some people are just crazy,they shouldent have been allowed
there…I often hear that the Free parties and Raves are more funny
there are less rules,dosent sound funny to me at all..
everyones fine just not a very nice thing to happen when your well ruined this is the first time ive actually seen this type of thing happen after 2/3 years of ravin
Dude I was there and saw that guy get beaten and robbed – thought they were just arguing between themselves at first, but then realised what they were up too – you could see them working in teams surrounding people – it made me sick. Couldn’t have a good time as was paranoid about getting jacked by some little rude boy…..luckily i was with about 20 mates who were pretty solid guys so they didn’t try anything on with us, but still, you goto raves to meet like-minded people and have a fucking good time – the last thing on our mind is to worry about little gangsta fuks – it was a weird night all round as just before we got there our mate broke his leg in two places after jumping from a fence! Luckily he was so high on K that he didn’t feel it!
Hi Timdogman:groucho:
raaa Welcome to Partyviberaaa
So nice of you to join us:groucho:
yeah there was a crew of 7/8 rudes just round the corner headin towards the bridge from the party that jumped us as soon as we turned the corner,
they were all pussys, didnt do shit to me when i stod up think they just expected to knock fucked people to the floor an then give em a kickin,
i got to my feet straight away, they gave me a few punches an backed off, i probs cud hav had them if i wernt so fucked think there were only 3 on me an they were all smaler then me but they probably had blades on them so its best that i jus chipped back to the rig
Fuck sake, its shit like this that makes me sick,these people aint got no concept of compassion, they just see this as a fucking free for all. Sad reality is these guys will either sort themselves out or end up getting locked away/stabbed and left to bleed in a ditch. Wish they would just stay the fuck away from good people and squabble/rob amongst themselves instead.
P.S. Sorry to hear about that mate, good to hear your ok!
grr – unfortunately this is becoming way more common and the level of violence is clearly escalating.
Although this was happening some years ago; if people resisted or realised whats happening the rudes would often just walk away – but now they are determined to get a few blows in first; and as you said if people fight back they ( or at least one of them) are prepared to use weapons.
The streets of London are as bad as if not worse than free parties.
Although its less common outside London, I’ve increasingly noticed even at “bumpkin” parties there are opportunist thieves you have to look out for; as well as “domestic” arguments and fights between people who know one another or even road rage incidents when everyone is a comedown and someones bad parking has blocked an exit point.
one thing though – was headfuk actually anything to do with this event? IME they are particularly careful to have events in buildings with security and well chosen areas to try and stop this violence happening.
Often the rumour mill says they are involved in a party when in fact its other London crews..
If its not I will edit the subject line as it would be a shame and even more of a victory for the scum to see a good crew get its name blackened…
it was advertised on the headfuk web site an everyone was calling it headfuk – although i dont think any actual involvement took place, maybe an amp or somthing, it was just to get a big crowd, although the rigs involed usually have a good venue & security so i had expected to pay a fiver an had my hand stamped
apparently the rudes were chased off site shortly after i left and it kept going without trouble through sunday, wish id stayed now although i did feel good for work this morning (bar the brused temple and back)
This was the party i went to, after we had a quick tour of the systems i quickly came to the conclusion that i was not getting too fucked up here.
First one of the systems turned off the music cause a stereo had been nicked out of one of the rig owners vans.
Shortly after we moved off to the first rig you came to on the path and stayed there the rest of the night. pretty sure 2 girls sitting down near me had their phone snatched whilst skinnin up and never even noticed till later. i was too messy to be sure of what i was seeing.
later i was rollin up and suddenly had a crowd round me, so all gear and phones were gripped tightly till everyone fucked off.
had a mad time, but you just dont need that cause your on edge all night then.
music was fucked up and fast
:crazy: :bounce_g: :crazy: :bounce_fl :crazy_dru :bounce_g: :crazy: :bounce_fl :crazy:
Anyone else think systems should provide secuirty or stop the party if there’s trouble? I think they’re bear some responsability if they don’t…
TBH if this is the result of lack of security they should get some for the safety of their crowd or stop doing parties:omg_no:
their other option is to be accused of being in cahoots with the robbers as they are effectively turning a blind eye to the activities as long as they themselves are not affected; they have to know this is going on and eventually someone will get so seriously injured they may end up dead
all the rigs involed are safe as fuk, ive been to parties put on by all but one of the rigs and there and usually in a warehouse with sum hench security guys on the door that give u hassel if you’ve got your hood up,
this party would have been well safe but i think it could heard from the near by estates and the locals came to take advantage,
a group got to gether and scared off the muggers, i assumed that it was mainly rig members and it carried on through out sunday without any incidents,
the only thing it’ll change is im keepin my nos cannister in my pocket useful wepon:groucho: take dwn them rudes
i am glad they are usually safe as
its very sad that this thing happens at parties or anywhere else; keeps the sound people away and slowly the atmosphere is polluted by nastiness
hope the next one is better:wink:
TBH thats as good as it can ever get.
“Londonistan” definitely exists; but not in the way the racist reactionaries portray it
It is not just one racial/religious group stirring up the trouble but a destructive street culture where young men grow up enjoying violence, fighting and its part of a weekend for them – which has been building up for 20 or more years unchecked. A combination of social breakdown and bad role models has made it worse year upon year…
So every group wants to be the warlords, defend their territory, and rob the newcomers/outsiders.
In most situations the “troops” (i.e. Scotland Yard/Red Ken) move in and “restore order” by force (ever seen a full-on met police raid?) but at the moment the raves are a no-mans land where people are fighting for control
Sadly thats the way London is at the moment – crews and ravers cannot afford to let their guard down at any time. At the same time its unfortunately very easy to get in to a mindset of accepting violence as routine at any social gathering 🙁
