Hey, fellow geriatric! (According to these guys.)
Yay, we’re old…
Never too old, though.
“Graver” has been in use as a lable for goth/ravers since at least the mid 90’s.
And many of the goth/ravers of the mid-90s are now the over-45s described in this article.
Where has this interviewer been partying that is so void of anyone above 30? This is so far below the usual reporting they do.
I feel old.
In the 90s I got into “rave” music. I was too young and an ocean away from going to a real rave. So I would totally like to show up to a retro show or a Big Beat show. Sans the drugs.
As a GenX-er, I take great exception to the term “geriatric”. Over-45 is not geriatric!
45 years old is geriatric? Fuck off! Condescending much, Boing Boing?
You are aware that no one at BB made the video, right?
