The term “Rave” came into existence in the 80’s, it was used to
describe an Acid House party where people dressed in outrageous clothing
and danced all night to cheesy techno beats. From a parent’s point of
view raves are not a safe way to spend a weekend and if my daughter said
she wanted to go to one, I’d probably place her in the nearest convent.
However, if you had asked me that question when I was 20, I would have
told you that I had a friend who said they were great….as long as you
know how to stay safe.
There WILL be drugs! Those signs that say safety zone, drug free
zone, etc. aren’t worth the neon poster board that they’re printed on.
If you are serious about going to a rave, you’d better know what people
are offering you. The most common drug that you’ll see at a rave is MDMA
(“Ecstasy”). No drug is safe, but there are different degrees of
danger. Simply telling someone not to take drugs is unrealistic, that’s a
personal choice, but at least make it with your eyes wide open to the
dangers. Do a little research on some of the things that you’ll be most
likely to encounter.
Go with someone that you know well, preferably someone who has been
to a few of these parties. I know that this may come as a shock, but
there are some VERY bad people out there. Having someone slip a little
something into your drink is more common than people admit, so take
someone that you can trust to watch your back.
Ok, enough raving about how dangerous a rave can be, let’s get down
to the important part. What should you wear? The answer to that is,
absolutely anything. Since you’ll be dancing, and partying, be
comfortable. Wear loose fitting, light clothing. As far as colors go,
anything neon is popular, along with glow sticks, LED shirts, and wild
wigs. Fitting in isn’t really a problem, the more you stand out, the
more you fit in. It's all about having fun.
