Ever walked up to a complete stranger in a club...

[Gnome Raver]

Actually this reminds me of something similar and even funnier!
The first rave I went to was Pleazure in March last year (the first one of the year I think).
They changed the location that night and a lot of people (me included) spent a bit of time crusing the streets of Port Melb. trying to find the venue. Well once I had it wired and realised it was still quiet I decided to stand on the corner and meet people and tell them where to turn.
Basically it went well, until this car full of... hmmm lets just say they didn't look that friendly.. guys reacted badly to my question that I yelled out to them...
"YOU LOOKING FOR PLEAZURE???"
It was after this that I realised that a guy standing on the corner of a dark street in a white shirt with two big fluro blue circles on it asking this question could definately be taken the wrong way.
HAHA

However it was all worth it when I got in to the party and throughout the night I had people come up to me and thank me for helping them find the place... ahh what memories.
On that note, anyone reading this have digital photos of that night???

well I'm glad to see I'm not the only BL loonie around, who says drugs don't affect *twitch* umm, affect you...
Now all I have to do is figure out sunday night at gods kitchen, since jb is the only person I know by sight and I don't think he's going...
Since most of the ppl going to GK will probably read this, I'll be wearing a tshirt that says "i read your email" (as opposed to my usual "WTF?" tee), so grab me if I'm wandering around looking lost

cheers,
hux.

this might be abit off-topic but sort of relevant in a way... anyways i dont mind sharing the embarrassment.

both at Pleazure this year-
1.
sees a friend (not acquaintance... a FRIEND). friend sees me and smiles. little GhOst runs and hugs friend happily. astonished voice says, " umm... hi my name is alan. wats yours?"
2.
tickles friend from behind while walking past. friend turns around looking slightly unhappy, complete with questioning look.
little GhOst starts to doubt her eyesight, peers into his face and asks "Crispy?".
"wat?"
"are u Crispy?"
"huh?!"
didnt help that he wore a yellow furry jacket and looked like a big chicken.
meek apologies and fast getaways applied in both situations 1 and 2.

That's how I met Fylar and gregington. I was at Trancemit 10 at Geisha in Perth with friends (Tacticale etc) a wile ago and Fylar was there going psycho (as per usual). He was obviously having a good time, so we started "chatting" and I randomly asked if they were BLs. The rest, as they say, is history. Funny really...

okay here's my story...
i was meant to meet haste at a bush party (who is the 1st bluelighter i met, along with mikey. both of you jaded fools rock!).
anyway, haste tells me that he is going to have some sort of a "blue light" thingy on top of his car, so i should just look for it and come and say "hi"!
so i get to the party and start looking for this "blue light"!
i finally found this car which had some kind of a blue-ish light thingy in the back seat! i walked towards the car and there were 2 guys standing there!
Me: "is this THE bluelight? i'm looking for haste!", thinking they'll know wut i'm talking bout!
the two guys looked at each other: "eeemm, yes! this is a _blue light_!"
me: "no no, but is the blue light from bluelight?"
guys: "yes, look at the colour, this _is_ a blue light!"
by this time, the two guys r fully laughing, thinking that i'm in "La La land" and sooo off my face that have no idea wut the hell i'm on bout!
they thought that i'm "on a search for this blue light which is going to save me" or something like that and "haste" is like the name of a "God" i have created for myself!
hehe.
so by this time i'm trying to get myself out of this mess: "look, i'm straight damn it! i'm not talking crap! i know wut i'm talking bout!"
guys: "sure u do! yes look at the colour! OoOoO a blue light!"...
...and started laughing their ass off again...
...so i walked away!
------------------
...and that's why i fly on my own now! No one to impress, depress, out best or digest.

HAHAHAHAHAHA That was sooooooo funny that night and to clear things up it was me and haste that where mocking u

Dance in the middle of the fighting.
Dance in your blood.
Dance, when you're prefectly free.

I often consider how much better my life would be if I didn't make it to Trancemit 10...

At the last utopia I was trying to find the bluelight meetup, but good ol' peakig me went to the wrong place. So I asked about 50 ppl if they were from bluelight, each time they looked at me like I was a fucking alien!
I mean damnit!

I remember at elektrick 001 in perth i was supposed to meet up with his royal rawness but that got FKed up when danny howells started playing. In the middel of Howell's set raw came up to me n asked "are you a bluelighter" and, because i was majorly rooted, i thought he said "can i borrow your lighter" and gave him me lighter, but then i kinda got the idea, after about half an hour.

I have never embarassingly sked someone if they're a bluelighter, usually i just say "have you heard of bluelight", which is heaps n heaps safer, unless they're an undercover n they take you out the back n start strip searching you.
peace
