looks like a lot of fun
we’ll be chipped from birth by then, curfewed, shot if we step out of line 😉
what sweet memories, crowded round one mobile phone in a service station car park, listening for instructions for the free party
I come from the Old Golden Age,when the mobile phone was only a Myth !!!
The Lucky Star was driving Us !!!
raaa
na .. tbh i just thought of that idea myself earlyer on today when i was on my way to the bank lawl …bad realy but i not read any proper books in a few years .. got too lasy .. i guess thats what this thread is about as id rather watch a film that read a book and rather down load a tune than goto a record shop and buy a vynal ..sad realy 😥

and i don’t remenber the police busting everything up as quick in the early days, or is that just rose tinted specs?!
DF 😉
yeaaah, thats why i reckon a month without the internet, or even a year, wud be great fun!
gutted i missed it tho!
yeah your probably right there that reminds me of a book i read years ago called the devil on my back .. i forget the author but the jist of it is ppl get a info port on there back at birth and lern through it from computors and its all lies .. the info there given i meen… like how the out side air is poisonous and eveil beasts live out there and shit like that … oh they live in a big bubble btw … but its all bull and one kid gets out and makes a new life on the out side .. its a sick book .. must try find out the author:sign0018:

there were riots but not that many
raves were actualy smaller and lower-impact so there wasn’t such a backlash against them. Plus cops used insecure analogue radios which could be monitored on easily available equipment :laugh_at:

ahh dn’t worry B
i don’t think it matters when you discover the alternatives – friends, music, drugs, free-parties, clubs whatever
when you hit the first scene, get a great crew and it really takes off its magic :bounce_fl :bounce_fl
TBH I don’t think the initial buzz for someone aged 16-19 is any worse than it was back in 1991, if anything its easier to find out about parties and score drugs than it was in the early 90s…
OK feds have clamped down in some areas but its also because people took the piss a few years back and even so there is still a party every weekend or most younger people can afford to get mashed every weekend (this was a bit harder to do in the early 90s as stuff cost more and there was less of it!)
Oh and we were using the net to chat about raves and exchange ideas/plans as early as the mid 90s
i would resort back to dirty mags :laugh_at:
also i would resort back to socialising

oh yeah its ok, some bits better, like the things you pointed out, and maybe better opurtunities i duno? some bits worse i reckon like divided youth n a larger minority willin to do extreme shit like stab n stuff, i dunno
i aint like bitter and i love partyin at the moment, its not so much as i’d like to live in the 90’s more, i have no idea bout that! its more if i could go back for one weekend, it’d be ace to go to castlemorton on an exodus/spiral tribe etc.!!!
everyones always bangin on bout the good ol days specially on SJ, at first i proper believed it, now from what yourself and others have said i take it with a pinch of salt – rose tinted specs and all that 😉

yeah i think ur right, i think the actual partymakers did it alot better than today, but ppl who go, the pills were so much better back then, have either gone though a tolerance to XTC or just remember it better than maybe it was, now we are able to obtain pure XTc alot easier, so surely crystal should be much better than any dove or love heart that was around in the 90s, also boy bands came out then and everyone hates boyzone
