Best rave you've been to?

See many of my former school friends (early 20s) this summer are either going abroad or going to raves. I assume many here are 30-35+. Did you have raves when you were growing up and if so, how great were they?

Not a rave but went Plastikman in the ambassador aaaaages ago. That's almost 20 years ago. God I'm old. Haha.

Anyway what type of rave are you talking about. Something ancient like creamfields or what?

When the Criminal Justice Bill was enacted in the UK (1994) all the crusties and head the balls moved to the continent and spent summers organising raves in empty factories in Holland and Germany. All done from squats. When the winter came they went to Ibiza or India. They were the best nights. Go to bed at 4pm the next day sort of nights.

And to the government, I stick my middle finger up
With regards to the criminal justice bill,
For all the heroes out and on the way,
We all sing

Went to a rave in Kentish town in a abandoned church on a Friday night and left on a Monday morning.

A silage pit in Limerick was the strangest one

Best rave you've been to?
