(Kandi) Raver Furs?

Xen Garden · September 02, 2009, 03:56:19 PM

Hahaha, I know everytime I post, it flashes OMG RAVER! But I was curious enough to see if there were any other ravers on this forum. Preferably Kandi kids, but all types are welcome to post and show their pride (Or shame). Junglists, Glowstickers, Gravers, Cybers, etc.

I feel like the loner on this forum cuz nobody's stated they live close to me/have same interests as me and I would like to meet some people with the same interests :D. PLUR

Total Rave fanatic over here!

Its one of the main reasons I am going to RF this year. For the wicked rave!

Got my pack of 100 glow sticks and other flashy/glowy things. Sooooo excited.

Yes! I knew I could at least find someone! :D Can I hug you?

i have yet to try the rave scene, but I'm interested. Except for the drugs part.

Pat The Fox · September 05, 2009, 01:38:18 AM

I'm also one of those potentially curious. I like some of the music and have heard about the dances.

Xen Garden · September 05, 2009, 02:19:21 AM

Mmm... drugs...

LOL Jk. I act like I'm always on drugs even though I don't do them.

I've been destined to be a raver ever since I was born, maybe. I remember that even as a small child, I always preferred listening to rave music over anything else. And I always loved the fashion and glowy, flashy things.
And the atmosphere when I do rave-related things is amazing in my opinion. If it doesn't give me chills down my spine, it isn't good enough for me. That's how I determine if a rave or party is good or not.

I used to go to them all the time between the years 1998 and 2000, went to many parties at the Riverside Banquet Hall in Richmond and the Spanish Cultural Center in New West.

Would have liked to been a part of the original rave scene in England circa 1989, but I was a decade too late and a whole continent away but we did have a pretty vibrant scene here in Vancouver 10 or so years ago.

Oh and you might get yelled at by mentioning drugs here, it's considered a bit of a taboo subject by the admins.

I'm not big into raves, music, culture or otherwise (not against them either, just indifferent :p), but one thing I do like is the fashion. XD

Especially the overabundance of brightly neon coloured glowy things. @.@; Oooh shiny...

Xen Garden · September 05, 2009, 05:44:59 PM

And with most overabundant ravers, alot of us get kicked into certain stereotypes that get people to hate us. For anyone who read the raver manifesto, one of the quotes in here say this:

"You may hate us. You may dismiss us. You may misunderstand us. You may be unaware of our existence.
We can only hope you do not care to judge us, because we would never judge you."

This can't be any more true. True ravers believe in PLUR (Peace, Love, Unity, Respect) and to judge someone goes against its true meaning.

*sighs*

Ok, lol.

I must Confess I have a bit of history in the Kandi Raver scene, haven't done it in a few years, hehe. Used to do the whole shebang LED's, Glowsticks, Tie Die Clothes, Facepaint, and of course, LOT'S of Kandi Bracelets, lol

um im a closet raver, havent been to any non furry related ones, but id love connections to people who could point me in the right direction. i just ordered a box load of rave toys for rainfurrest :3

Xen Garden · September 05, 2009, 08:30:38 PM

There's a rave I'm going to in Seattle called "Escape to Neverland", and DJ S3RL will be spinning. Every rave I gone to has been NON-FURRY Related. It's going to be amazing. If anyone else is going, we could always meet up there and hang out ^_^ By the way, that rave will be Happy Hardcore. Not everyone's into that kind of rave music, as a warning, lol.

Badinage · September 06, 2009, 01:43:52 PM

Seattlefur here. I've been dipping into the rave scene a little lately. The rave-style dances at furcons are just about my favorite thing there, You'll find me at the dance for hours every night :3

Been to several non-fur raves over this summer too, bubble bobble #, yellow brick road #, etc.
While it is fun, its a little depressing how my raver friends will just talk about how much the scene has been going downhill in Seattle for the last 6 years. Easy to see that too, I know the dance at Anthrocon totally blew away every other one I've been too.

Escape to neverland is on October 17th eh? Looks fun, I may be there :)

Xen Garden · September 07, 2009, 04:22:51 PM

If you do, we should meet and hug. I love hugs! Those who don't are squares.
