Out of all the parties that I've been to, thank goodness none of the fellow party-goers dressed like this. They can have all that happy/hardcore, plur bullshit. Just make the damn ground shake.

Back in the day in Seattle when I frequented raves (late 80s/early 90s) I remember seeing more of a semi goth look and also people into wearing Dr. Seuss type long hats, etc. That earlier photo just looked like a bunch of nerdy dudes trying to look hip but failed miserably.

Looks like he's mocking ravers, or maybe a Halloween party?

I came in to the scene around '95. At that time it was transitioning out of the Dr. Seuss scene and progressing into a more techy feel. The scene here was kind of a hip-hop vibe mixed with just chill low-key people. Memphis was a different story, very thuggish/gangsta vibe. You didn't step out of line in Memphis. my favorite parties were the underground, warehouse, drive around for an hour trying to find the place then following the vibrating pavement to the entrance. The International Ballroom in ATL and Marathon Village were always a blast.

Indeed. Good times, good music and it seemed as if everyone at the venue (total strangers) all acted as if we had known each other for years.

I know this isn't the music thread but since we're on the subject of raves, I remember this track(1991 release). This was the shit back then, at least for my friends and I.

This was hardcore techno and there will never be a generation of music production like this ever again IMO. Listening to this stuff on X and in a warehouse of Dr. Seuss delights and chicks half naked in cages....

EDIT: If you read some of the comments on YouTube it gives you insight as to how epic this track was in the early 90s. Lots of folks bashing the later generation. The most recent comment was 7 years ago! Lol.

Yeah that's strange because generally speaking raves were supposed to be about being happy and carefree. I can't even imagine being in a scene like you described in Nashville. Maybe it was just a change of the times, not sure. I described my fondness of music in a thread a few months ago which is buried deep in this site's archives by now due to little interest, lol. But I was talking about the variety of music and activities I was involved in having been in Seattle in those days. One day I'd be raving out and the next day I'd be at a live house checking out a grunge band. It was so much fun to have so many choices back then all in the same place essentially.

Music just isn't the same anymore. People knew how to play instruments and produce real music, unlike the majority of shit that is on the airwaves today. I guess technology played a role in that. It became so easy to put together a few notes into a track and suddenly it's music. Admittedly it's fun to have such powerful tools like that.

From '93 I lived abroad so I was completely out of the scene here in the US for a period of 10 years. It's one of the reasons there are certain genres of music or artists I never got into. Maybe an entire generation.

Man I miss raves. I still go to music festivals from time to time, and they are great and still generally have that 'everyone is accepted' feel, but they just don't compare to the raves I grew up with.

I find myself constantly correcting kids that call festivals and venue events "raves". Listen here little girl, this is not a rave, this is a DJ playing a sponsored and publicized event at a sports arena. Just because you put on fuzzy boots, are wearing a bikini and have a blinking glowstick necklace on does not make you a raver.

Genres have changed a lot and a lot have went mainstream.

Exactly! Honestly the whole EDM thing and big sponsored shows in Vegas ruined it. It's a pretty broad scope of music I suppose but much of it is just shit. Untalented hacks getting rich off of idiots.

2. This detention scene made me think Murf993 must've worked like that.

And by the way, this girl fight scene resembles the quarrel in this thread.

Haha, funny, but I'm not pretending to be anything. Picked that username because it's another version of my name, which is Steven. Maybe I should change my username to Little Steven. Then I'd be pretending to be a member of the E Street Band.
