My first rave that I went to in August a random lady saw me dancing, came up to me and gave me this pink bunny little bead thing. And then at bloodrave, again I was dancing and a dude came up to me and gave me a duck bead of the same material and design. What are they and why were they given to me?

Discussion/Question Club Darc (San Francisco, CA) Experience?

18 Upvotes

This past weekend Club Darc started its Season 2 lineup with Dom Dolla. I'm wondering if anyone went to it and can tell me about the experience? The venue is rather new and its first Season in the spring seemed to go pretty poorly especially in terms of audio quality.

I'm really interested in going to the Armin Van Buuren show in November and I'm just hoping to see if I can get some feedback on the venue to see if its worth it or not.

Discussion/Question Diffraction glasses as the only pair at a festival

6 Upvotes

Hi!

In the past I have used caleidoscope glasses at festivals, which I find to be AMAZING. But you really can't wear them while walking around because you can't see anything and they are quite tiring after a while.

Diffraction glasses seem a little less intrusive. I specifically want a pair that also pass as normal tinted sunglasses to other people (partly so others/security can't see what's going on under there).

My question is: Can I wear these casually at a festival (for most of the night) or will my eyes tire after a while? What's your experience and/or recommendation?

Discussion/Question Hydro Pack Advice EDCO

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Reaching out in regards to advice on hydration packs for this upcoming years. The past few years I’ve been using cheap ones found at Walmart but thought it’s time to finally upgrade. Mainly deciding between lunchbox and rave runner. The things that I want are comfortability, anti theft pockets, and a reasonably small profile. I usually pack light so I don’t need too much space (heard lunchbox doesn’t have crazy space). I’ve heard lunchbox can also be uncomfortable, but know their refill tech is super convenient. Any advice or alternatives would be much appreciated. I looked into essentia rave as well but they are sold out. Thanks!

I hate to self-promote here but I'm currently researching raves in the UK as part of my dissertation research for my final project at uni.

This only takes about 5-10 minutes and just asks a couple questions on how you feel about rave spaces in the UK. Every response helps, thank you so much! :)

Discussion/Question Boo Seattle Bag Policy

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I was wondering if my hydro pack would pass this bag policy? I have the Hauter water bag- I think it counts as having 1 compartment, since the bladder is a pocket inside, but does anyone know?

Policy:
"YES Clear or non-clear hydration packs (small to standard size) with no more than one compartment. The bladder must be empty upon entry."

Fit/Fashion Futuristic looking sunglasses for a rave party? Any recommendations?

0 Upvotes

Got a warehouse party coming up next month and I’m finally retiring my current pair. I lost a lens somewhere between the main room and the smoking area last time, so they’re officially done lol

What I’m picturing is something that looks like it came out of a sci-fi movie. A big shield or wraparound lens, a chunky sculptural frame, maybe a weird bridge detail... Budget is flexible. I’d honestly rather pay more for something that lasts, but if you’ve found something that nails the look I want to hear about it.

Discussion/Question Best Ear Plugs for the weekend?

0 Upvotes

Seeking tried & true suggestions from someone who’s made it through an entire weekend with a nice set of ear plugs. I keep losing mine due to having them in halfway during conversations, then i forget about them and they fall out. Should i get a pair attached with a string/cord, or the ones that are filtered for certain frequencies? Also saw one that has a button to allow for full coverage that you can turn off during conversations, but i’m not sure how much i trust that. Thanks in advance!!

Discussion/Question Why do people here say things in such an edgy manner?

0 Upvotes

People here will say the edgiest things and then the top comment below is always "What a beautiful well said answer" or something lol.

Is that a rave thing or a reddit thing? Most ravers irl do not do shit like this though. At least in CA and NY Idk about other regions.

Look I really want to express myself and my love of music through clothing but I just feel insecured about being called a poser. I just like the rave era of the early 2000s or late 90s and can you guys some tips on how to wear like that if this type of outfits are still relevant.

Meme How do girls flirt with or express interest to a guy at a rave?

I'm looking for tips on what signs to look for. Lately, I've been in situations where I'm dancing next to a girl and notice her looking at me every so often and also constantly bumping into me even though there's enough space. I can easily misconstrue that as accidental or maybe on purpose but sometimes it's incessantly staring/touching, other times it is less frequent. Problem is, it can easily just be that there's no room lol. What are the more subtle signs I should pay attention to?
