Love Parade
Sunday, September 25, 2005

Back in Blighty and it's cold and wet, but this is ok considering we haven't seen rain for 3 weeks. Feeling a little weird and jet lagged but figured I should write up the Love Parade which was wicked fun.

About 35 floats decked out in various styles and colours and MASSIVE soundsystems take over San Francisco's equivalent to Oxford Street and thousands of people take part in one huge street rave! Many decided the excitment was far too overwhelming and removed all of their clothes as the party progressed up the street. Each to their own ya know.

Every different style of electronic music was catered for... some quality jungle and acid techno along with Goa Trance (thought that died years back) breaks and hip hop. The Love Bus complete with Ghandi atop (see pic) was the best for us... maybe it was the foxy girls pole dancing on the back that swung it ha ha! I've posted a couple of vid clips below that probably do a better job of showing the party off than words and pictures. Unfortunately my cameras microphone couldn't handle the volume of the rigs, so the sound quality suffers..

Random Dancing
Moonshine Saloon
Techno Truck
Dirty D'n'B

they don't do it justice, you had to be there....anyone up for a dedicated trip to San Fran for this next year?
