I think a big rig is quality:devil_wag, but i would take it further away than 1 mile from town. Best out in the sticks miles from anywhere. Yea you might not get as many people, but you are sure to pull all the like minded people. And that way sometimes you dont even have a visit.

The biggest problem is net advertising and infolines, that just gives a tip off. Before ya know it choppers in sky and bingo your pinged! Whatever happened to the old school way of doing things?

Dont get me wrong i have made the mistake of net advertising and infolines. But this year has been a turning point for me, leasons have been learned.

Had two shutdowns, the first shutdown the police arrived in force with riot gear, attack dogs the lot. That was a very close shave, lucky enough i was able to negotiate with the police. Second time i just shut down (cheif inspector showed up) wasn’t to bothered cause we had 20 or so hours of tuneage:wink:

i prefer parties that have a deacent soundsystem, not always huge wall of speakers as they dont always sound that good. Fair if they have managed to get it right, but i often find this isnt the case and big massive walls of speakers can sound like loud wet farts! Some ofthe best parties i have been to have been smaller scale ones just a small stack, but pounding sounds! but then some of the best have been bigger ones (such as the planet yes multirigs a few yrs ago!) I like a party to be in a good location, with places to explore, and a good place for a sunrise spliff! but then ive had good times at warehouse parties. I think the main thing to make a party great is to have all my friends there!! (or to be in the mood to make new ones!)

Not really a question of Loud V Quiet IMO (although quiet always helps get away with it wrt being noised up by OB etc)

Good attitude from all involved is paramount, and good atmosphere (main job of the DJ really) are the golden ingredients. Decent chems are a given in that IMO (sorry, but it’s the truth. Rave music may not be about the drugs, but they are a large part – it may be possible to have a good rave with no drugs, but I’ve never been to one. I’ve seen good drugs turn a crap party into a stomper too many times to mention though…:weee:) That’s people for you…

Back to topic though – I’ll forgoe the rant about long throw subs on a rig with no nearfields (done that at least once somewhere). Suffice to say I think they’re silly…You can be loud without being audible 6 miles away…:you_crazy:you_crazy:you_crazy

Smaller parties are good, cos numbers aren’t guaranteed. Granted, a 10000 person 30 rig rave is a ball, but a rave in a field that size with 100 people less so. Small parties are easier to get the atmosphere going in. If 10000 turn up, with another 29 rigs you can always move somewhere bigger…raaaraaaraaa

we has a wee gathering sat/sun , bout 50 -100 at peak, 2 bobbys came down(1male 1female) had a chat, complimented us on location(in a dip) and asked how many more peeps we were expecting to which we replied that is it. they were met with NO hostility. they asked us to clear up to which we replied we ALWAYS do. we uped our course a bit by saying about violence in city etc and that theres hardley any trouble at partys which they seemed to take in. they even had a little bop about infront of the stack as they left- if only all coppers were like that

Nicely!

We have had several like this as am sure many more peeps have to.

You just wouldnt get this response from a multirig event and I think most of my memorable times have always been at smaller intimate locations. Although I did go to Monegros this year and that was 50k of peeps which was immense and I loved every minute of it. The difference is that its a paid for event and as such well organised.

It is always good to read that there are still PC’s working with the community, what a nicer place it could be if as you say they were all like this.

Having the right rig with quality of sound is paramount in our book, and often that is lost with a mulitrig/big rig event……its all about the music……

i’ve just watched Bunsen’s post with the video of the Beanfield (I was in one of those buses, about knee high to a pixie)

I think this country is well overdue a revolution

but there doesn’t seem to be any central focus (poll tax was a close one), so in the absense of a rallying call…

i think we should just rise up and fight, right now. it’s gone too fucing far. we should take every opportunity to not be pragmatic or cooperative. we, you or I should start a fight with the law today

i think the next big social movement will be against the police state we are living under

and i think it should start this summer

:toxic:

Amen to that, I’ve been sharpening my pitchfork for months, I’m ready. As to the question loud or quiet, imo the louder the better, i love it when the police turn up but can’t stop us. All they can do is try to look hard in their silly riot gear and walk around trying to gather evidence with their fucking cameras. People used to fight for what they believed in but now it seems we are prepared to roll over onto our interest free three piece suites and be pacified by television and the promise of two weeks paid holiday a year.

Death to consumerism, death to ignorance, death to opression.

it depends. if i help fund/organise it, i’d rather not have my rigs taken (hypothetically, i dont have a rig yet!), even if the police don’t stop it they’d probably confiscate the rig vans at the end along with some pretty expensive equipment.

loud with bare ravers ‘avin it when the police can’t do anything does make a “resistance” sorta point… buuuuut if the rigs get taken it’s a bit shit, just gotta help the rig vans get out unnoticed!

queit small ones are good cos everyone knows each other. they aren’t as hectic or messy as huge ones but good laugh and guarenteed no OB and no scally cunts!
