This has the awesome feature of only existing because everyone was thrown in to a situation and sort of had to band together. Man, I felt so *with* everyone this night.
I've been to the Concord before for Dan Fournier; I had no idea they'd ever host an improntu lost-ravers backup party. I'm not sure the owners were expecting it either--I know the one old woman was kind of worried about people sneaking off to the bathrooms to have sex. But other than that the staff were completely awesome, (they didn't ID me!), they just trusted us to live and we did.
I showed up after 23h and they still just told me 5$ which was a.. nice change for once, compared to some other places that try and start jacking the price as soon as they can get away with.

The broken beer bottle was mildly dangerous, but I made sure it got swept up (though I had to poke the overbusy bartender to come do it twice before he got to it).

And turtlefuck was the music HARD

(And Frown before and after was awess too )

The bags thing didn't seem to be enforced. I know we just noted that others clearly had backpacks on in full view of the coat check people and so we just kind of.. held our bags low so that coat check didn't notice, and went on, and no one bothered us about it.

The police showing up wasn't that sketch. They didn't do -anything-. Just wandered around. They used to do that in Halifax all the time and the rave scene thrived (<http://freetekno.toronto.on.ca/forum/viewtopic.php?p=10410#10410>).
