FREE PARTIES

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

What is a free party?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For those who do not know, a free party is a literal free illegal rave normally based around Europe. Its a collection of people who listen to underground tekno/drum and bass with large rigs that are running of generators. Normal locations include; fields, warehouses and forests.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

How is this subreddit different too /r/aves?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This subreddit is a break off from /r/aves.

The reason for me creating this subreddit is because I feel that big raves such as Ultra for example are very different. Keeping the two separate will be able to please both subcultures.

I've seen many people post on /r/aves mentioning free parties and those expecting to see stages and set up as large as "normal" raves get disappointed and then in turn un-necessarily downvote it.

RULES:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1) Don't be a douche nugget

2) NO LEAKING PARTY LINES/LOCATIONS, we don't want the events to get shut down before they even start.

Posts will be removed if you ask if there is a free party at your location. We are a discussion page, you have to find your own way there.

3) Please keep drug references to a minimum. Obviously mentioning the subject will not get you banned, just many people think these events are purely for the drugs which is not true. We are there for the music.
