that rave looked pretty gay to me tbh. the dudes all looked gay af and i didn't see a single chick for the first 3 minutes. 97 was a few years after i pretty much stopped going raving coz the scene had gone to pot by then. the criminal justice bill in this country had fucked up the illegal rave scene of the late 80s which is where it really was at. once the raves went legal and big business took over you got hoards of idiots and dickheads going along. wearing fucking white gloves, whistles and fucking pacifiers among other dumb shit ffs. all the original cool crowd of the acid house days had long moved on. it was never about 'big business' advertising red bull, charging crazy money for drinks and moving in with stalls of just about every bit of crap they could sell to youngsters who were totally off their tits and would buy pretty much anything if it was neon colored or had fractally type patterns somewhere on it. for us it was about the music, drugs and solidarity. the us and them. when you entered an illegal rave that was in full swing in the late 80s it was a sanctuary, the police would not come further than the gate, so you were away from the law, the govt, your boss, big business advertising tons of crap you didn't need or want at every turn, your parents and anything else that was constantly trying to control or influence your every move. it was freedom baby, in that warehouse you could do whatever the fuck you wanted, take drugs openly, fuck a chick, walk round naked if you wanted. nobody would judge you, everyone was on the exact same wavelength and was your best friend. it was fucking awesome.
