What sort of a person would go to this? (UK drive in rave)

[planetgeli]

A rave. From 9-11pm you say.

I think you mean school disco.

 

[killer b]

My favourite regular rave of recent years ran from 7-10.30, and was wicked. A packed dancefloor as soon as the doors open, a wild and totally up for it crowd, incredible music, and I could still get to bed by midnight. Perfect.

If it could be done, establishing some drive in set-ups round about now would be a very good thing. It’s sorting out Car-by-car speaker set ups that is the stumbling block, I guess. Big screens are already well-trodden technology for big concerts. But if that could be solved you could actually get some theatre and live music performances going on.

Yes cars. But outside of a handful of big cities a huge proportion of hog and theatre patrons travel by car anyway.

 

[BristolEcho]

Cars aren't even that comfortable to be in are they?

This is just a novelty. Much better off doing what most of us have been doing - sitting at home on the sofa/garden playing tunes you like and drinking cheap beer. We had our first lockdown festival this week and I reckon it's the future.

It's taking place in Bristol.

This looks utterly miserable to me. Like a traffic jam with music in the distance.

A low power FM transmitter, and use your own car radio to listen.

I've got a memory foam double bed in the back of my van! So YES!

I was talking about potential for a number of these venues around the country. Perhaps in big shopping centre car parks. Bicester shopping village is really near to the RSC - might be scope to stage some works there.

Or some kind of Bluetooth thing?

 

[Saul Goodman]

Or some kind of Bluetooth thing?

That was my first thought, but you'd need a fairly hefty Bluetooth speaker to come close to a car's sound system. Although I'm not sure an FM transmitter of low enough power to not require a license would be powerful enough. I'm sure it could be worked around with repeaters or something, though.

For people to use their own car stereos the tech is dead simple and already available.

 

[Thora]

Fuck off Frank I'm not a twat because I love a rave, but possibly for other reasons!
I wouldn't go to this because I like to get high when I rave and I wouldn't be able to drive home.

I would go because I can’t drive, so Mr Thora would have to be the designated driver

That looks rather nice.
Maybe drive-in movies will become a thing again, too.

What looks nice about row upon row of parked cars? Oh wait. I've remembered your wing mirror fetish.

A distinct lack of cyclists?

 

[nogojones]

The main reason I go out is to dance, so this just isn't going to work for me unless I have a big bus or something

You can use an unused FM frequency to broadcast the sound.

Doesn't leave much time to come down off your mdma to drive home

Or as it's only two hours long drive there coming up for start of music

 

[spanglechick]

If you used the car stereo, though, wouldn’t it run the risk of flattening the battery?

It should be fine for a couple of hours, unless you're running amps, or your battery is on its way out.

The one I saw advertised said they had a jump start crew ready if you needed it

Already a thing

 

[Orang Utan]

The same people who would go to any sort of rave. Twats.

you're the twat for using that massive paintbrush

Looks like a scene from Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. We should expect Tina Turner to strut out on stage to encourage some dudes in bondage gear to fight to the death. Now that I would go to

 

[Chilli.s]

I guess its how good their sound system is. Having being getting disparaging looks from everyone round here about that afternoon a couple of months back when I accidentally made too much noise at home, I'd love to hear something loud enough.

But if you're sat in an a big car park surrounded by loads of other cars, it's going to sound shit.

You've talked me out of it!

2hrs before 12 is my preferred dancing hrs these days.
Does it say you can't get out the car because then i wouldn't go. If you can dance around your designated parking spot, I'm in - if the music is my thing.
I would be very happy to have somewhere out my house to go dance right now.

 

[Mattym]

Apparently, Berghain are doing a 48 hr one very soon.
