A simple enough recipe. Back in the day, when raves were new, it was all about experimentation. Sometimes there was LSD or Ecstasy making the young one gyrate so. Or maybe the music led the boys into a trance of freedom. To kiss a boy and not be penalized for it.
Raves are still about experimentation with drugs, sex and other such thrilling things.
A raverboy would never dance to that. He would dance to Ministry or Download. In later years, it would be Fatboy Slim. What began as a mild interest in Rave culture turned into a full-blown addiction when I met Stan. He decided not to sleep on the couch and asked if I minded if he slept with me.
