If you want to dance, you can. You don't need someone to dance with. People are there to have a good time. This is where the drugs come into play. The reputation ravers have for being chronic drug users seems well founded at first.
Kids stay up all night dancing.
Everywhere you look there are kids drinking water and chewing on pacifiers, and giving back rubs. These things are always portrayed as a side effect to the drug use in the media. In my experiences, as with many of my friends, there is an innocent side to each of these. When the music is good, you feel like dancing. Water is often looked at a sign of drug use at them because ecstasy is a dehydrating drug.
