I dragged myself to a party at the Lorax last night. It wasn't a long drag. It was downstairs and I was already at the place hanging out with Ritchie, Dean, and Chris when it started. It was interesting seeing a bunch of kids who have probably definitely never been inside the place wandering around and getting a feel for the social dynamic. Ravers are so nice. It was the total opposite of the Lorax's past couple of hip hop fests, where kids were aggressively drunk, starting fights, and there were a lot of them. The party last night saw two DJs go through their sets without a damn person dancing to their music. I felt really bad for them becuase the jungle they were throwing down was sick. I was really impressed. The majority of kids in attendance apparently weren't because they spent most of the night either in the alley smoking and watching fire dancers or in the back yard...smoking. The party really only started to pick up at around 1 AM, when people started to get into the gabber playing upstairs. It was too late by then because everything shut down an hour later.
