this is a fine post. it talks about music and raves in non-idiotic
fashion. i hereby proclaim chris to be post-teen.
let me restate that talking about raves is not what i was objecting to, my
beef is with idiots who just flame people because they mention the word
rave. or PLUR for that matter.
i haven't been to any raves, but i certainly have no beef with anybody who
has.
i would also like to point out that the majority of the immature behavior
in the PLUR thread has been on the "anti-rave" side of the thread with
most "ravers" checking in only to defend themselves and making valid
arguments IMHO... i just think the "ravers are idiots/no they arent"
thread needs to be dropped NOW because it's old, it's tired and it has
NOTHING TO DO WITH MUSIC.
PLUR,
josh
