Do people still go to raves?

Just last weekend.

Of course the more responsible organisers that actually clean up after themselves probably don't organise raves during a pandemic.

How do you even organise an illegal rave in a field? Either it needs a ton of power and lots of speakers, which sounds logistically implausible, or you just have someone playing music from their phone speakers, which sounds shit.

I feel like I might have misspent my youth, but I'm not a raver: I'm straight.

Used to do this sort of thing in south Wales

Power wise, a 2kw generator is about enough to power some decks and speakers to get a quarry or a bit of forestry going. . I bought one at one point, to guarantee me a lift to local raves. Dunno who organised them - mate used to ring me in the week and tell me when where

It's like the early 90s without the good music.
