I fully believe that everything that is wrong with the rave scene is directly attributable to irresponsible drug use.

I agree...somewhat...I also believe that the deterioration of the scene can be attributed to the "type" of people who come to parties nowadays...PLUR is dead...you wouldn't know it from the way I and my friends act but it's a fact of life...another question is...did it really exist at all? I've only been partying for a little bit over 4 years but at all the parties I go to anymore[here in NYC and up and down the east coast] I don't feel the sense of "comfort" anymore...I remember when I could start a conversation with anyone and would meet tons of great people to chill with...anymore now I keep to myself and my gf or hang around my friends...here in NYC the scene has just gotten so grimy...abuse[abuse...not responsible use] of E is a problem but also Dust is a very popular drug here and it's just fucking up our scene...Also you have the thugged out drug-dealers/posers who come to parties just looking for a easy hookup...if u wanna do that then go to a booty club!! Shady, Shady people...*rawr* I'm actually think that I may start going to more clubs come Spring...at least then I'll hear some new DJs that I haven't heard before and I'll be away from the grimyness of the party scene...
BTW - Hullabaloo was totally different in that respect...I had such a great time there...my first time...and I met some pretty cool ppl...yes I got asked multiple times if I wanted to buy drugs but the vibe there seemed so much more true to our PLUR roots LOL <---cheesy....hehe...my gf even commented that "Canadian partykids seem so much cleaner and less shady" lol...So be happy with what you guys have and preserve the magic!! We're definitely coming back...
