Party Vibe

It seems though the British and foreign authorities are now working together to “deal with” the “problems” caused by the “euro-teknivals”.

Apparently “British dealers” have flooded places like France, Italy with ketamine (or are perceived to be doing so!) , and there has been an influx (in recent times, 2004 onwards) of UK crews who have been forced out of British free parties have gone to Europe

the cops there are none too happy (a fair few people, including some I know, got busted by Italian authorities at Italytek as they allegedly pushed it beyond “agreed finish times” and pissed off the locals).

OF course because of the sheer size of crews, the lack of strict border controls and the terrain not all events get busted (smaller things do seem to get tolerated as shockraver site clearly shows) but when things do go tits up its not at all pleasant…. (Czechtek 2005? for instance)

nah, the problems were more to the cops as most of the undercover units they sent in in them days ended up getting on drugs themselves and being quietly invalided out of the force so as not to cause a big ruckus. Its almost funny until you realise how much taxpayers money got pissed up the wall with these sorts of operations. Also cops then didn’t have as much of the high tech equipment that they have nowadays, although they had some surveillance kit their main computers were very old, and their radios were analogue and you could easily listen in and find out where they were 😉
