It sounds like you got too old snotbag. I can tell you there is nothing wrong with our "scene". It's all the better for peeps like you not being there.

Settle petals...

Surely there's not enough supporters of good music in Adelaide for you to be slagging each other. WTF? :slap:

There used to be some good times at 5am clubs back in the day. Dreamers/Mile High/Freezer at the Hilton (for those that go back that far!).

But the funny thing is that this thread has had 1900+ views. So even if every one who has posted viewed it 20 times, there are still a lot of lurkers on this site.

Has FB turned everyone from particpants to voyeur's?

I have not been out in a fucking long time.... i reckon everyone gets too pissed and goes home to crash at 4-5am. Fuck, Sunday morning just started getting interesting at that time 5+ years ago...
It seems you just don't get that any more. Where the fuck is there to go? Where's all the regular type of crowd that used to peak at those hours, and look forward to the scene? That's right, sitting at the cas at 5am in the morning iced up playing pokies.

every man woman and their dog does not give a fuck about the scene. they all know that their favourite poofter with a pair of cdj's is going to be playing on the main stage at the next future or parklife

Where is there to go?

58's and Red's?! Lol...

Much rather kick back at a mates place for the Sunday sesh. 58's I refuse to step foot in, and Red's I absolutely hate.

Bring back my beloved Rise haha

Pretty sure that post was referring to venues that are open at 5am (agreeing with your earlier post Papa Nick - saying prefer to kick back at someones house)
By the way Papa Nick, are you related at all to Papa Sven?

the 'wogs' [i used it with love in my heart, no malice at all] at school would ask us 'sevos c*nt' in english it would mean are you going to join me in a trip to seven eleven for a slurpee...

i think it has just spiraled and spread from there!

actually if i was onion magazine i'd be looking at starting a forum and doing it properly...they have the content and the right people...[/QUOTE]

We did talk about doing this some years back but decided not to do it, as we thought forums were on their way out with Facebook and everything. And nothing looks worse than an empty forum. We might revisit this notion though. As has been mentioned, in Adelaide the one forum that is extremely healthy is Adelaide Massive. Khem does a great job with that and they have a nice community going.
