I mean, why should they even be worried? Sure, maybe they drop a few curse words here and there—I guess that's to be expected—but as far as everything else goes, they’re pretty much alright.👍 I wonder what Jason Chavez32 means by that—it’s a bit of a mystery, I guess!😁 ?

amberorca192 said:Well, I know some folks here in New York City who have been part of the trance scene for maybe ten years now—even though you can't really say there's a massive, intense scene in NYC itself. Maybe there's 200 people at most, if that, and honestly, I think that’s probably better that way. I mean, isn't it possible for someone to ride the wave of an actual genre for ten years even if they don't truly love it or live for it?

There are a few of us oddballs out there who are absolutely obsessed with Goa trance, even though that sound has pretty much vanished—and whatever has stepped in to take its place doesn't really deserve to carry the name.

🤮

I get what you're saying, but there's at least *something* happening in New York City—a real scene exists there—whereas in all of California, there's just... nothing. People tried to make things happen a long time ago, but it never quite stuck because the techno and house crowd was just too dominant... though we didn't really complain back then, since at least that scene had some real momentum, unlike how things feel today...

In that case, do you know val or Mickey and the others?👍

By the way, I'm originally from California—though I work in New York City now—and I found some of those comments about girls from the West Coast a little offensive... but hey, I guess everyone is entitled to their own opinion...
If I'm heading out to a show... I'm definitely not going there to hunt for a guy!!! I go to soak up the music (Morales certainly isn't the type! 👎 ), dance my heart out, have fun, and hang out... basically everything that PLUR used to represent, which I think some people still hold onto today 😘
And honestly, trance is just something special... at least for me 🙂 ...there's this unique energy among the crowd... it's almost like everyone is mentally connected... and you always see that slight, peaceful smile on people's faces...

Exactly that😘
Who are you, really?😁

I’d also add that what briskranger2 is talking about is a whole river... it's truly a unique culture—not just a river of dancing, but a way of life... unfortunately, that kind of scene doesn't really exist here in California... and sadly, we don't even have a solid techno scene anymore either; it all feels like just faint traces of what the scene was like back in the late nineties or early 2000s...

The whole point of this thread was supposed to be about the game mechanics—just sharing ideas and having a decent discussion—but I guess everything just boiled down to this unnecessary obsession with Morales... Honestly, spider, you might as well just start a whole new thread dedicated to him, where everyone can sit around talking about his skills, his tattoos, his muscles, and all that stuff.😁

I think I’ve slowly just gotten used to traveling away from our beautiful country... you look around and see so much happening everywhere else... so you decide to peek 🙂 for a weekend... and you come back feeling totally satisfied... then you basically crawl out of bankruptcy for a little while before going broke all over again 😉

I find myself traveling all over the place too, though usually just to catch a certain big-name act—but when it comes to the vibe itself, I feel like everything is becoming more and more stripped down, no matter where you go...

Rebecca Ramirez5 said:I suppose I agree—though it seems like only a handful actually get it. Most people just experience that pure feeling when they're high, which isn't really my thing... honestly, I can't say I respect that at all.

🙏 That’s pretty much it...👍

Summer at Aurora always seems to have that special magic, doesn't it?

I mean, yeah—but lately, it feels like everything just boils down to maybe two or three really great parties, while the rest is kind of... meh. I guess we'll just wait for summer to roll around again and start the whole cycle over from scratch... you know, with Cox, Morales, and Westbam leading the way...😕

Rebecca Ramirez5 said:if you're building PLUR based solely on a smile, then I guess that works.......

Hmm... I'm not sure if you caught my drift, or maybe we just have different takes on what PLUR really means?
In my view, it’s more than that—it’s about how we actually look at people, our genuine attitude, and that underlying vibe... That's more or less what I was getting at, if you know what I mean!

Rebecca Ramirez5 said:Yeah, I mean, everyone used to know everyone back in the day... but not anymore. I suppose that’s just because the whole scene has fallen apart. You show up to a party now and realize the entire vibe is being swallowed up by synthetic stuff—like, in massive amounts—so you really don't have much choice but to either close your eyes to it or just walk away.👍 👍 👍 👍

Oh, come on... I don't think I could ever truly say goodbye to the party scene. It’s basically what defined a huge chunk of my life over the last decade or so. Of course, I’m not hitting every single event like I used to—that would be a bit much—but still... Even today in San Francisco, I know maybe 20 or 30 people who still show up to these things with that same old energy they had ten years ago (which, honestly, feels like a pretty small number), but even then, we can always make each other laugh... isn't that enough? Isn't that the whole point?
To me, that’s exactly what those famous words are about: peace, love, unity, and respect... right???🙂 🙂 🙂

I wouldn't go so far as to say they're better than John Doe's debut album—though I suppose they're still pretty decent...

Rebecca Ramirez5 said:Honestly, things haven't changed all that much today... kids these days have the exact same kind of fun we did back then. I mean, sure, electro is everywhere, but hardcore techno and progressive trance are still very much alive—you just have to actually want to listen to them, I guess. And maybe without all those intense, PLUR-style outbursts you get when everyone is caught up in an adrenaline rush from amphetamines or some other brainwashing substances...🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

I suppose I’d agree with most of what’s been written here, though I still feel like things used to be a little different—everything felt somewhat more intimate, you know? You actually knew every other person there. We had places like: Cassie, Kulušić, the Factory, MTV (New York City), Stella Maris, Up & Down, Shakespeare, Ace (San Francisco), Arsenal, Belvedere, or whatever it was called (Key West), Aurora (Santa Barbara), the Chapel, or Night (Miami)... and where are all those summer parties on Maui, Oahu, Manhattan, or Auburn now? Anyway, I guess it’ll never be quite like it was; we're getting older, new kids are coming up, and all that...
👍 Cheers to the good old days
