How Do I Find Out About Rave Events? Hi.. I've never actually been to a real rave, but a few mates of mine have back in the day, in a forest usually.
I've been wanting to go to one for a year or two now, but never hear or see anything about them, except for stories from people who used to go to them when it was a big scene.
I'm only 19 so I missed out on the heyday, happy hardcore and the like.. but man.. some of the things ppl tell me are classic.
I'd rather go to a rave in a field somewhere, where everyone is caned but real friendly, dance my as s off all night than go to town on the weekend where there always seems to be trouble with some random group of idiots.
I live in South Wales, I'm not sure whether we have a big scene here to be honest, but does anyone know where I can find out about events near me?

It should be a really interesting bunch of people that
turn up to Strasbourg to make some waves following the
Police battering of ravers at the Czech Tek. Hopefully
a lot of on the case people, who are quite tuned in,
all in one place.
12th November - 12h Strasbourg -
14:00 Place De la Republique.
There is information about everything happening being
co-ordinated at this website!
http://www.soundcirkle.info/europe/
--///
here's a note from the website
"The manifestation will start at 14:00 (13:00 GMT) but
we can access the Place de l'Universite at 12:00
(11:00 GMT) to prepare the mobile sound systems.
Ending would be around 19:00 (18:00 GMT).
Then we'll do a short Teknival..."
--///
Event against arbitrary repressions of named
"Teknival" and "Free Parties".
Those events just are the expression of free Art and
Cultures, without commercial purposes, open to ALL
PEOPLE, helping them to share, develop and enrich
those cultures.
An Event to ensure that what happend in Tcheck
Republic never happens again anymore !!
In an emerging constitutional Europe, we won't
tolerate member nations scorning places of creative
freedom or destroying them with Police brutality or
security laws.
We can't give up in front of those kind of
discriminatory acts.
We won't abdicate ahead of intolerance.
We won't accept to be silenced.
We just have to go ahead and spread informations.
For this, we need U... .. .

This is an entrant to the Undercurrents BeyondTV6
Festival. We have used some xvid/divx footage that was
uploaded here in the film and we are contacting those
authors to get a hold of mini dv versions for the 3rd
edit. If you have footage that you think will go well
with this film please contact us at the above email,
please do the same if you have any suggestions or
comments. The film itself covers the day of blockades
in an agit prop, music video style. It tries to
explain the frustration of the previous 2 days of
being " penned in " by the police at protests and the
contrast between the direct action blockades and what
was going on at Live 8. Tech stuff: This video was
encoded with the Xvid open source codec.

[AZTEK] [BIRTHDAY] [BASH] Thanks to everyone who came to our birthday party last weekend at the Old Army Barracks.
Couldn't beleive how many people turned up to make it one hell of a night to remember.
Was a nice venue with loadsa underground bunkers, barns/hangars, surrounded by trees literally in the middle of nowhere. (it used to be a secret nuclear military base of some sort during the cold war)
Massive thanks to 2B3, Free 4 All, N.on S.top T.ekno, Confiscated & One Love sound systems for helping us make it a party to remember.
For the amount of people there, there wasnt a single bit of trouble from anyone or the OB, nothing but good vibes from start to finish.
Hope people liked the fireworks and we're sorry the burger van couldn't be there.
Were having a break for a couple of months so wont be out again until our Xmas bash. Hopefully see you all there with our new rig.
Teddybears parliament picnik Dear Lovely People,
This weekend as many of you may already excitedly be aware the Teddy
Bear's are having a picnic! in Parliament Square!
BACKGROUND: In a clear sign of the times, the Teddys have recently
announced after a great and wide Federation of Teddy Protestor non-hierarchical consultation process they will now and in the coming months in solidarity stand up and be counted against the powers that be and its unjust ways. yes ladies and gentlemen, we human beings may not be alowed to protest, but the cuddly toys certainly are not covered by s132 SOCPA*
INVITATION: So, please do help us by distributing this written
invitation widely, and if you can come on down to Westminster/Parliament Square with your teddies [and
their teddy placards??]
DETAILS: Meet at 12 Noon on the Green opposite Big Ben this Sunday.
Bring the usual picnic fare, and more if you can as this is a very special
occasion. And if you have a musical instrument, great, as the those
groovy
Teddys just love to dance. More info below!
PRESS RELEASE: Federation of Teddy Protesters assert Freedom To Protest
The Federation of Teddy Protesters are becoming increasingly unhappy
with the way their furless friends, the Parliament Square Picnickers have been harassed by the Police since the introduction of the Serious and
Organised Crime and Police Act (2005) this year. This draconian law forbids demonstrations within 1km of parliament without the prior ‘authorisation’ of the Police. To date we believe that they have made at least 19 arrests, age 17 to 70, and possibly more.
For Winnie the Poohh's sake, at least six of those arrested were
friends of ours the Parliament Square Picnickers! Their crime? Simply daring to
eat cakes with ‘Freedom to Protest’ and ‘Save our Speech’ written on them in icing, for wearing t-shirts with slogans such as ‘Make Trade Fair’ and ‘Peaceful protest is an essential part of democracy’, for discussing the important issues of the day at their ‘people’s commons’, for clapping in a provocative manner and generally drinking tea without permission. Even T-shirts and art supplies have been seized as evidence.
Being inanimate objects and therefore not subject to this outrageously
undemocratic legislation the Federation of Teddy Protesters (FTP, in
solidarity with the fledgling civil rights movement here in the UK) have
decided to support their comrades by staging a ‘Teddyblairs Picnic’ this Sunday at noon in Parliament Square. Therefore we call on all free thinking
Teddies, and their human buddies who value free speech, and the right to drink any beverage without authorisation in front of the 'Mother of All
Parliaments' to join us in tea, cakes, singing, party games and silly peaceful protest.
BREAKING NEWS: this just in the Teddys have just now made an
electrifying debut appearance on Al Jazeera stating that they will be making a revolutionary declaration on the big day. They also urged all free thinking fun loving peaceful people to join them in saying NO! to s132 of SOCPA. Repeal this legislation!

[The D’Alliance] “Got Milk?” Satirizes Pro-Athlete Witch Hunt
See it for yourself.
I appreciated the fact that a statement forwarding milk as a "performance enhancing substance" was accompanied by the characteristic small type at the bottom of the screen, noting the source as the California Milk Processor Board -- a font of medical knowledge to be sure. The fine print also states: "muscle claim requires exercise program."
No mention was made of potential side effects, however.
