To miss E?

[CroutonCrab]

Might be all the stress in the world at the moment but it’s made me think about what I’d give for a couple of doves and the clammy hands that come with them. Don’t think my heart could take it now

This girl would be in her early Eighties today... but sums up LSD well.

''I lived in a monochromatic world''...

The days after would be too much now!

Plenty of day raves (Pre covid) to relive our youth! I go to 4/5 a year.... it's all about the Mandy these days.

Caned it back in the 90s at big raves like world dance and dreamscape or smaller venues like sterns 😎 pills, sometimes speed but the paranoia comedown from speed was awful.
Used coke and E quite a bit from the mid to late 90s (bagleys, the cross, Camden palace,turnmills, the fridge, mass, the end) 2007/8

Great days, great music.
I do listen to new stuff, Just stumbled across Franky Wah on Spotify, also love Bicep, camelPhat, cristoph. Can't beat the 90s tho.

I always feel so lucky to have lived and raved in London in the 90s.My favourites were Whirlygig, Escape from Samsara and Return to the Source at the Fridge and Strawberry Sundays. I lived within walking distance of Club UK so we often ended up in there after 3 AM when it was half price! :D Thankfully we weren't there the night it got raided, but a friend was. He tried to walk out covering his face as the police were videoing everyone, and walked into the back of a police horse, which gave him a hell of a boot! Also went to a fair few illegal raves in derelict building, random fields etc. Some of them were a bit scary though, but god we all felt invincible in those days! I wouldn't do it again, but my god I'm glad I did!

🥺😉😊😬. The days.

Oh good old days!
The Fridge, Camden Palace, Fabric!
Remember walking into a club at midnight and then the lights turning on 5 am - literally felt like I was there for 10 minutes:)
Once remember seeing a guy dressed as Pac-Man in the middle of the dance floor - still not sure if that was real or not!

Sums up the feels for me....

A few times a year I vape some weed. Thats enough for me now, doesn’t take very much. Makes music sounds so good. But only when I have few days off.

I go to a festival every year with friends and take it - just once a year - it's pure joy.

Let's hear the whistle posse one more time!

I'm enjoying this thread, living your pasts vicariously . I was a little bit too old and boring and scared for the 90s club scene but threads like this are great to see how happy everyone was!

You'd be surprised... No one is too old.

As for a previous Poster who wrote ''REPORTED" I bet she partakes of alcohol....

A very staid Christian woman came to a Free festival and decided to take LSD...We said we'd look after her... Took her to a churchyard {Where she wanted to go} and she could only say ''It's wonderful I had no idea''...

Consciousness expanding... She is in her 60's now.

Don't miss E but do miss the '90s, just the best decade of my life.

I hear ya, i agree, a good rave is what the soul needs
Id love a nice candy flip

Sums up the feels for me....

Ahhh heaven.....

This is making me so old - every now and then I like to watch ' human traffic' just to reminisce!!!

That's STILL my all time favorite movie.

Actually i don't drink. Not sure what your point is, drugs are illegal in the uk. Might as well reminiscence of good ol' days of stabbing and robbing.

I've never tried E, maybe born a decade too late but this is my favourite thread ever and it's made me smile. What I wouldn't give for a night off aged 32 with three kids to try my first E!

The negative nancies in here though 😂🤣😂 seriously, get a life!

Here here
Some have a stick so far up their own ass its funny

If by a life you mean miss E, take drugs, and break the law then no thanks.

Get off the thread then?

@Craddle64

As someone who obviously has no experience in the scene, why are you even here? To look down and tut tut people? That's pretty sad and pathetic really and says more about you than us.

Many of us have memories that will last a lifetime, have felt the love, freedom, creativity and pure joy of the scene with ZERO ill affects. You can believe your b.s. "drugs are bad - mmmkay" mantra but with no experience, your talking out your ass

Oh excuse mr i thought this was mumsnet not prodrugs website i will get my coat 😂
If i see a reply to my comments i will reply back, simple as. You know what to do.

There has been a really good Radio 5 documentary about rave culture. It is still on BBC Sounds.
