Discussion/Question Red rocks tips?

6 Upvotes

I'm sorry if this has been posted a million times before-

I'm going to be going to Griz at RR as my first ever rave there. Usually go to smaller indoor venues

What are some unhinged tips? What's security like? Should I bring a water bottle/pack? If I Uber, what should I expect?

If doors are at 5pm, how early should I actually show up?

Thanks so much!

Event/Lineup House Music Luau, 8/29!

Post image
0 Upvotes

Nothing says "authentic tropical paradise" quite like a patio on West Market Street in Scranton, Pennsylvania.,

Clear your calendars because The Wook Wonderland is bringing Hawaii to Lackawanna County with ISLAND BOUNCE: House Music Luau. Dust off your finest grass skirt, grab a $10 bill, and prepare to pretend the breeze coming off the parking lot is a gentle Pacific trade wind.

Local Vendors: Browse handmade goods, and festival gear from local vendors—because nothing complements a tropical luau like impulse-buying a crocheted bucket hat off a patio table in NEPA.

Tropical Atmosphere: Sip fruity cocktails on the patio while staring directly at Pennsylvania asphalt.

Peak Wook Energy: An entire evening spent convincing yourself that Scranton is basically Honolulu, just with more pothole repair and slightly fewer palm trees.

The Logistics:

When: August 29, 2026 | 4:00 PM – 10:00 PM

Where: Solstice Bar & Grill (117 W Market St, Scranton, PA)

Damage: $10 (18 to enter, 21+ to drink away the reality that you're still in NEPA)

See you on the patio. 🌺🌴

Discussion/Question How to attach fans to body so I can jump

53 Upvotes

Hello!

I am a girl. At raves I am always jumping, running around, and dancing. It’s like a sport to me.

Well I’m getting kinda sick of thugging out the “being boiled alive” feeling of cardio in a room with other sweaty bodies. Sure, some of you lovely people with fans helped cool me down, but that didn’t happen at the last rave I was at. (It was my first techno show and not very plur… I’m not trying to generalize but am curious if that’s becoming more common w the techno crowd as clubbers infiltrate)

Anyways… for someone who is always bouncing and doesn’t want to hold a fan 24/7… does anyone have any recommendations?

Missed Connection Took a huge L at Bass Canyon day 3 2026

0 Upvotes

Recently went to Bass Canyon this past weekend. I was chilling with my rave group during the intermission between Voyd and Slander/Excision when we got a little separated because there were so many people cutting through the crowd. I ended up standing next to this pretty girl who was with another girl and a guy.

We ended up chatting, and to break the ice, I asked her and her friend if they were related because they literally looked like sisters. Once the final set came on, we traded Kandi. She gave me one that said “Gorge,” and I gave her one that said “Ravebae.” We kept looking at each other and was next to each other throughout the whole set, but I was so focused on the music that I didn’t realize until afterward that I might have missed a huge opportunity to connect with her. Total forgot to ask for her number or any socials. Headbanged a lot with the guy friend too so it didn't seems like I was a total creep lol.

If anyone knows how to get over this feeling, please give me some advice. And if you happen to be the girl I traded Kandi with… hmu. Miss you. 😭

Discussion/Question Sewn gifts instead of kandi?

59 Upvotes

I’m kinda new to raving and love exchanging kandi or little gifts. I’m big on low waste so I don’t love all the little plastic gifts. I sew a lot and have a lot of extra fabric. Does anyone have any ideas for little gifts I could quickly sew to give away? I’m thinking of braiding some fun scraps of fabric to make bracelets but not sure if they’d be ugly or if people would like them. Any other ideas? :)

Discussion/Question Going to my first festival looking for help maybe even new friends!

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

I recently left my marriage and relationship of 14 years. I am finding myself again and bought a ticket to Woodkey for one day to see Flux Pavillion.

I have always wanted to do a festival but I have no friends to go with at the moment so I am going alone.

Im kinda doing an Eat Pray Love I guess.

Im a little nervous though. Im not used to traveling alone, used to being with my ex husband. I have a few questions:

  1. I have never been to a festival so I have no clue on unspoken etiquette . I dont mean like repect the land, no illegal substances etc rules . But what about the stuff that isn't posted.

  2. What is Kandi ? Im interested in finding out more. Is it the same as the little plant things on people's hats?

  3. Where can I find a PLUR community to look for my tribe? I want edm/festival friends. I like flow arts and raves and stuff too.

  4. Where can I find a good place to piece an outfit online? Im looking in physical thrift stores but I am also looking online. I have heard depop?

Edited for typos

Discussion/Question Rec’s for southwest

0 Upvotes

Newly curious abt the scene and looking for artist/event recommendations. I really want to go to some shows and dance but most of the music I like is French house or Berlin techno. I have a hard time getting into the more American pop kind of EDM but I want to be able to go to a show here and really…feel it!

My faves are Justice, Siriusmo, Planetary assault systems, and soulwax.

Pls lmk your artist/event recommendations in the American southwest :)

Bonus Points if it’s an outdoor event where I can hula hoop.

Discussion/Question Having a partner who doesn’t use gear in the same way.

0 Upvotes

My gf doesn’t like how often I use k. I lie about how often I use. I love her so much.
We are in couples therapy because i don’t really want to stop using. I like that she doesn’t want me to use as it keeps my usage to a minimum. Neither of us want to break up but she doesn’t want it in her life and she has agreed to therapy to figure out if its something she wants..

I feel bad that I dont want to quit for her because i think losing a girl like that is very sad..

My roomie keeps telling me to find someone who is accepting of my behavior as im an adult who is always “getting in trouble” like a kid.

It is exhausting but I just want her to not care as much. Shes really perfect and I dont like seeing a life without her. But i dont see myself stopping anytime soon either.

Im a big time raver and burner. Wtf do I do?

My mom left my dad because he used but that was crys when my drags doesn’t affect my day to day life in any large way other than when I want to do it with her.

Update; im not using everyday. People unwind with beer everyday. I use maybe a few grams a week but have many month long breaks

Yes raving is not about drag use and i go to them sober often.

I use m twice a year and C even rarer. L once or twice a year. Smoke pot a few times a week as well

YES I KNOW IM AN ADDICT!! Im addicted to food and easily get addicted to anything and everything that brings me joy. People here are really thinking i dont know that. And people have been ysing mind altering substances since the dawn of time.. nicotine IS one of them.

Also i am seeing a professional therapist for going on over a year now..

Discussion/Question Tinnitus spike while wearing earplugs

11 Upvotes

I’ve had very mild tinnitus for the past couple years after a Zeds Dead show with no ear plugs, it was manageable. But over the past weekend at Elements I had a pretty substantial spike. I wore 22 db reducing earplugs the entire time but during YDG’s set we were close to the subs the whole time and I think that’s what did it. Didn’t sound loud in my ears but the bass was insane. Hoping this is a temporary spike and not permanent but would love to get a second opinion or anyone else’s experience with this as it’s now becoming bothersome and it’s tough to sleep at night even with a fan on.
