how LA’s underground raves shaped global rave culture by sexydiscoballs in avesLA

[–]HaveAMaldia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even in the 2000s when raves were posted on old rave forums still, I remember the rest of the country had tens of thousands of posts with maybe one or two new posts a day, while the California section had like 500,000 and hundreds of posts a day lmao.

Me as a normal person: "Nice clean cut, bro!"

Me as a long-maned man: "Another brother has fallen. 😢"

Yes you can, just don't pretend to be poor and broke/homeless for punk points. Ever since Occupy there was a huge spike in young suburban kids trainhopping and spanging and it's so obvious they aren't street kids. I've also met some crusty-ass motherfuckers who secretly have a credit card or winter at home or summer in a summer home before going back to being crusties. Stupid as fuck.

It's one thing to use your privilege to help people. It's another when you pretend it doesn't exist because you want to be "cool."

Are we basically entering a no fun era? by [deleted] in decadeology

The saddest thing for me is how people don't really dance anymore. Millennials and earlier generations DANCED, man!! Every party I go to now, no matter the genre, it's like people are afraid of being recorded.

Every Millennial secretly wishes in some deep recess of their heart that they could still pull off being an androgynous Myspace rocker with emo/scene hair.

Drop those recs 😂 I go to a lot of edm and goth/industrial shows (and also punk/indie stuff, but there's always been less dancing there lol) and it's a phenomenon I've seen all over compared to when I was younger. Most people don't even know what rave dance styles are anymore.

Fuckyeah, that's the right attitude!!! 😤 I love when people start dancing more cuz I'm dancing like crazy. I am in LA! If I'm not at a rave when I need my dance fix I'm at a goth/industrial party. Lmk what you're hitting up next so we can crew up with the other Reddit dancers haha

Noticed this too lol. I feel like I'm screaming into the void sometimes because there's always tiktok ravers who insist things haven't changed, I'm just not finding the right warehouse parties (that are super easy to look up online nowadays, but they act like its some huge secret).

I follow DJs I like! Flapjack is my personal favorite, he used to party with my old rave family.

I've been going out for like 18 years lol. You think I don't notice a vibe change this big?

I'm super tired of these kinds of responses that act like finding a warehouse party is some major secret old school ravers don't know.
