The group for the evening was Tom, Tim, Rach, Saman, Kate & Douma (who were to turn up later), Miss Trash and myself. It was raining, it was cold and i was tired. After working out who was driving us there to drop us off and having to double back because Tom left his ticket at his house we finally arrived at the sports centre at homebush. Made our way through the ticket people, stright past the sniffer dogs (more to that later) and into the event.
Now, I don't like trancy or happy hardcore type of dance music at all. However, I have always been told I should go to at least one rave so this was the one. My first thoughts when we walked in was 'Fuck this is tiny'. I had heard about how big these raves were and that with the combination of the light show was once of the things I was looking foward too. There was the main area which was only about the size of a basketball court and then most of the other 'arena' were just little back rooms/change rooms where they had stuck a DJ in.
So, whilst Tim and Tom went off raving and moving about like they do to that horrible music, Myself, Miss Trash, Saman and Rach went looking for the 'Electro House' area. We ended up at this tiny outside/courtyard area where some guys were playing what was mostly dirty house. Miss Trash decided to dance herself silly. Even though that was the best music there, it was still horrible.
So after getting there about 9:30 when it started, Saman, Miss Trash and myself were leaving at about 12:30. Rach went to dance with Tim and Tom. We went and met up with Miss Trash's mum who is a ranger at the complex where Transmission was being held and she ended up getting us a taxi. When we finally got back to Tom's after dealing with a retarded taxi driver who has no fucking idea where he was going we decided to retire to bed.
So, rave events such as Transmission really aren't for me where as Tom and Tim really enjoyed themselves. Different strokes I guess....
