: 20 years time the concept of 'music' will probably be outta date...... kids
: will sit in a virtual rave machine, fill up with designer, safe, substances,
: plug in nutrient leads, and prepare to party continuously with their virtual
: friends for weeks at a time. There will be virtual doormen in the cyber-rave
: whose job is to give out free refill substances and plur to the vibe. Virtual
: doormen will clamour to give out the most and best vibes, competing in their
: friendly competition where the 'best vibe doorman' as voted by all (if they
: want to) receive huggs from all ravers on their way out.

Marvellous... I am planning a cartoon strip in which an alien lands, gets
out of his craft saying "I'm off to that rave" - he trots off to Rave
Mountain where he can be seen leaping around in the crowd giving it some
sproing factor. Time passes - now is then - and the people move down to
Chill City above which hovers a cloud of fragrant smoke.  Here the people
laugh and may draw their ideas, minds merge and people love a little more,
grudge a little less.

By the way all of the above is true (I can't substantiate the alien bit, but
it might have been me in an abstract metaphorical way) and it happened last
saturday night/sunday morning at the best house party I've ever been to.
Thanks to Karen, Gid, and all of the lovely York people who I just love love
love love love

keep rising you lovely lovelies
