MDMA is unquestionably the most popular of the club drugs, and evidence of MDMA use by teenagers can be seen at most rave parties. Ketamine and GHB also are used at raves, as is Rohypnol, although to a lesser extent. Rampant use of club drugs at raves may be leading to the use of other and highly addictive drugs by youths. Heroin is being encountered more frequently at raves and clubs in large metropolitan areas, especially in the eastern United States. Many young ravers wear distinctive clothing and carry paraphernalia commonly associated with club drug use and the rave culture.
Ravers dress for comfort.
They usually wear lightweight, loose-fitting clothes and dress in layers, allowing them to remove clothing as they become overheated from dancing for hours. Many wear loose shorts or very wide-legged or baggy pants. Ravers often wear bright accessories like bracelets, necklaces, and earrings made of either plastic beads or pill-shaped sugar candies. MDMA users sometimes use these accessories to disguise their drugs, stringing MDMA tablets mixed with the candies. Pacifiers are worn around the user's neck, often on plastic beaded necklaces.
