The Raver's Manifesto:

Our emotional state of choice is Ecstasy. Our nourishment of choice is Love. Our addiction
of choice is technology. Our religion of choice is music. Our currency of choice is
knowledge. Our politics of choice is none. Our society of choice is utopian though we know
it will never be. You may hate us. You may dismiss us. You may misunderstand us. You may
be unaware of our existence. We can only hope you do not care to judge us, because we
would never judge you. We are not criminals. We are not disillusioned. We are not drug
addicts. We are not naive children. We are one massive, global, tribal village that
transcends man-made law, physical geography, and time itself. We are The Massive. One
Massive.

Until the sun rises to burn our eyes by revealing the distopian reality of a world you’ve
created for us, we dance fiercely with our brothers and sisters in celebration of our
life, of our culture, and of the values we believe in: Peace, Love, Freedom, Tolerance,
Unity, Harmony, Expression, Responsibility and Respect.

Our enemy of choice is ignorance. Our weapon of choice is information. Our crime of choice
is breaking and challenging whatever laws you feel you need to put in place to stop us
from celebrating our existence. But know that while you may shut down any given party, on
any given night, in any given city, in any given country or continent on this beautiful
planet, you can never shut down the entire party. You don’t have access to that switch, no
matter what you may think. The music will never stop. The heartbeat will never fade. The
party will never end.




The definition of raver:


A "raver" is one who goes to raves. Contrary to popular belief, there are many
different types of ravers.

First there are Candy Ravers; these are the ones you see running around shouting things
like "PLUR!" or "Want a hug/sucker/glowstick/massage?" They are
identifiable by their brightly colored clothing (phat pants being a must...if they’re made
of fun fur, all the better), enough Candy (brightly colored bead bracelets)to sink the
Titanic, oodles of children’s toys, as well as a few glowsticks and pacifiers. Candy kids
are known as the cutest/most annoying people you will ever meet. A lot of them are pretty
fake - it’s impossible to be that happy all the time. Candy Kids are also notorious for
being users of the drug Ecstasy - this is not entirely accurate, but with the way they
dress and act, its not hard to see why this is assumed.

Next we have the "Goth" ravers. They’re quite easy to spot - they will be
dressed in all black, preferably incorperating some fishnet, spikes, and buckles into
their outfits. The more there are the better. They will not socialize outside of the group
they came with, and they will NEVER under any circumstances dance. They’re too goth for
that - dancing equates to happiness and celebration, and that’s just not cool.

Ginos and Ginas (also known as "hoochies". These are those well-dressed, snooty
people that really shouldn’t even be at a rave. The only reason they’re at the party is to
pick up on some 15 year old e-tard. Well, maybe not, but they certainly are only at the
party to get a piece of ass. They will be dressed in whatever is "trendy" and do
not know how to dance.

Next are junglists. Junglists are often viewed as being "agro". They listen
primarily to Jungle/DnB music, and are partial to camo, hoodies, and clothing in dark
colors. Popular junglist hairstyles are dreads (m+f), short hair (m+f), or short with two
long bits in the front (f). Quite a few junglists are ex-candy ravers. They may also be
"old-skool" or "jaded".

Old-skool and jaded pretty much fall into the same category. Old-skoolers are ravers who
have been in the scene since "way back in the day". No matter how good the party
is, the music/DJs/parties/drugs/people/anything else about the scene was WAY better when
they first started raving. A jaded raver is not nessicarily old skool, but shares the same
views as the old skooler.

And even still there are many ravers that do not fall into any of these categories.
So...perhaps a raver is simply one who goes to parties to dance the night away, and loves
the music. Interesting concept, hey?






Interesting facts about the 1500's:

Most people got married in June because they took their yearly bath in May, and still
smelled pretty good by June. However, they were starting to smell, so brides carried a
bouquet of flowers to hide the body odor, hence the custom today of carrying a bouquet
when getting married.

Baths consisted of a big tub filled with hot water. The man of the house had the privilege
of the nice clean water, then all the other sons and men, then the women and finally the
children, last of all the babies. By then the water was so dirty you could actually lose
someone in it. Hence the saying, "Don't throw the baby out with the bath water."


Houses had thatched roofs-thick straw-piled high, with no wood underneath. It was the only
place for animals to get warm, so all the cats and other small animals (mice, bugs) lived
in the roof. When it rained it became slippery and sometimes the animals would slip and
off the roof. Hence the saying, "It's raining cats and dogs." There was nothing
to stop things from falling into the house.

This posed a real problem in the bedroom where bugs and other droppings could mess up your
nice clean bed. Hence, a bed with big posts and a sheet hung over the top afforded some
protection. That's how canopy beds came into existence.

The floor was dirt. Only the wealthy had something other than dirt. Hence the saying
"dirt poor." The wealthy had slate floors that would get slippery in the winter
when wet, so they spread thresh (straw) on floor to help keep their footing. As the winter
wore on, they added more there until when you opened the door it would all start slipping
outside. A piece of wood was placed in the entranceway. Hence the saying a "thresh
hold."

In those old days, they cooked in the kitchen with a big kettle that always hung over the
fire. Every day they lit the fire and added things to the pot. They ate mostly vegetables
and did not get much meat. They would eat the stew for dinner, leaving leftovers in the
pot to get cold overnight and then start over the next day. Sometimes stew had food in it
that had been there for quite a while. Hence the rhyme, "Peas porridge hot, peas
porridge cold, peas porridge in the pot nine days old."

Sometimes they could obtain pork, which made them feel quite special. When visitors came
over, they would hang up their bacon to show off. It was a sign of wealth that a man could
"bring home the bacon." They would cut off a little to share with guests and
would all sit around and "chew the fat."

Those with money had plates made of pewter. Food with high acid content caused some of the
lead to leach onto the food, causing lead poisoning death. This happened most often with
tomatoes, so for the next 400 years or so, tomatoes were considered poisonous.

Bread was divided according to status. Workers got the burnt bottom of the loaf, the
family got the middle, and guests got the top, or "upper crust."

Lead cups were used to drink ale or whiskey. The combination would sometimes knock the
imbibers out for a couple of days. Someone walking along the road would take them for dead
and prepare them for burial. They were laid out on the kitchen table for a couple of days
and the family would gather around and eat and drink and wait and see if they would wake
up. Hence the custom of holding a "wake."

England is old and small and the local folks started running out of places to bury people.
So they would dig up coffins and would take the bones to a "bone-house" and
reuse the grave. When reopening these coffins, 1 out of 25 coffins were found to have
scratch marks on the inside and they realized they had been burying people alive. So they
would tie a string on the wrist of the corpse, lead it through the coffin and up through
the ground and tie it to a bell. Someone would have to sit out in the graveyard all night
(the "graveyard shift" ) to listen for the bell; thus, someone could be
"saved by the bell" or was considered a "dead ringer."


So this is my conclusion....House Music....you me
