I wish high school parties were that good back then!

First ever party was in Kelowna in 97, first big party in Vancouver was Hunny (98), that was a crazy night. I was 17/18, Id say 8.5 years as i only went to like 2 or 3 parties in 97. Had a about a year long hiatus in like 2002 or so.

[frogprincess]

first raved @ magic mountain II (or maybe I) in 1997 @ the ripe old age of 17.
raved on for the next couple years and then stopped going (until i fell in love with an ultimate raver sometime in 2001).

i have not been to a rave since 2004, but i'm sure i'll be posting on fnk til the day my fingers fall off.

Nah bro, the Stickmen were a breaks act from waaayyyyyy back in the day. The big headliners back then were Keoki, John Kelly and Bad Boy Bill. I actually used to looooooove breaks before I lost all my taste, musically speaking (just saying it before somebody else does) =)

Yeah. I woulda been surprised if it was the same Stickmen (Since we're probably thinking different ends of the province!). Anyways, your still old!

Apex Project 2005; I think I'm the one who's been partying the least so far. Funny how it all worked out though. I basically just went to Apex just so I could say I've been to a rave once in my life, but as it turns out, it's been a HELL of a lot more than once. I've been going pretty much non-stop since then, with the exception of about 7 weeks earlier this year. Although I usually feel like shit the next day (even when I rave sober! WTF?), I regret nothing. Thinking back, I've always like electronic music, I was just always in denial about it. Where I came from, if you liked any kind of electronic, you were basically considered a druggie, back when it wasn't cool to be a druggie in my town. Once I came to Vancouver, things did definitely change.

Partying is still fun. Until the day that it is not, you'll probably see me at raves all the time, with the camera and Clubzone stickers in hand

that put a smile on my face.

[prozac]

^Yeah that was my era too. My first party was early 2000 I believe . . . ah Talk-sic. I still remember my Dad saying "It's not the Tuesdays I'm worried about it's the Wednesday mornings!"

The "rave" thing dropped off for me sometime in 2002 and the only all-nighters I've been to since have been dnb one-off dirty basement type thingos, a couple times a year.

[Grapes]

First dosed in August of 1999. I used to be able to remember the exact day.. I think the 24th?

First rave was at Riverside (but not the more common building) on September 6th. It was called "Golden Groove", and it sucked ass (in retrospect. I'm sure at the time I thought it was awesome, but I was high as a kite).

Went to another smaller party that got busted within 10 minutes, then went to Simple III, which was hilariously ridiculous. Then I went to Interstellar Overdrive, put on by the much missed N.I.C.E. production company, and I remember thinking.. "Hey.. I might be doing this for a long time".

Now I can't remember the last "rave" I was at. Maybe it was Shambhala! (my third). But I definetly haven't stopped partying.

The friends I used to party with have come and gone (to a handful of them, good riddance). My choice of intoxicants has certainly skewed in a different direction. The music has changed and shifted. But the one unifying theme has been:

Since the first time I really tried it, I've loved to dance.

And that's always been there, no matter what was changing around me.

Looking forward to hitting the floor again tonight.

Lost count when I started doing drugs. That was around year 5 or 6 or something like that.
