S-2633 (RAVE Act) Update - 2006/06/24 04:05 We`re making progress! All of the attention that this bill has received is making waves!! The ACLU has joined the cause, and the Washington Post featured a well-written and very supportive article on our battle today (page A01). Everybody keep up the good work and keep applying pressure to your Senators! We can win this!!
Here`s a link: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A22083-2002Jul17.html
And here`s the article:

Re:S-2633 (RAVE Act) Update - 2006/06/24 13:33 I`m currently moving out of my apartment, and last night I was peeling flyers off of my wall. I have them up in chronological order and as I went along the flyers were getting smaller and smaller and smaller. International headliners were replaced with national headliners, who were replaced with regional headliners, who were replaced with all local parties, etc. literature into "Reality Check!" raver service announcements to "Police Crackdown on Raves" articles to "Remember When?" nostalgia. By the end of my wall, I was a mess. I had seen the terrible decline of the last few years in the course of a half-hour and I just couldn`t shake the feeling that maybe we *had* reached the end.
Well, it`s amazing what a little sleep will do. This morning, I`m back on top of things and eager to setup my studio in my new house. I`ve got a big room, so I can move in my drumkit along with my jungle of keyboards and synth modules. What we`ve witnessed isn`t the end of the scene, it`s just a breather while we pack up our boxes and move into a bigger residence.
Next year, the party starts over in a brand new neighborhood. Everyone`s invited.

Re:S-2633 (RAVE Act) Update - 2006/06/24 13:55 dropbass.net has this to say the RAVE ACT (S2633) : help stop the Senate from banning raves! 07.18.02 transmission: email / website
We took a little time off after a hectic month June. When we got back we found a number of emails in our inbox concerning the RAVE Act (Reducing Americans` Vulnerability to Ecstasy). The Action Alert below came to us from DanceSafe. This bill has already passed the Senate Judiciary Committee. It is moving VERY rapidly through the Senate and could be passed any day now! Worse still, the Senate leadership considers this draconian drug war bill to be so uncontroversial that they are trying to pass it under "unanimous consent" rules, which will mean no debate and no real vote. It is absolutely vital that your Senators here from you today if you don`t want to see this bill happen. This law is not only a danger to civil liberties, but also would effectively eliminate live electronic music in the US given the risks associated with holding events.
We apologize to anyone who`s received this info already from another source. We don`t like getting the same email 10 times as much as you. This one seems pretty important though. Read On...and hopefully we can still Rave On! couple weeks. We`re working on the event, but honestly it`s getting harder and harder to gather together every year. This pending bill doesn`t help the situation much either! Please keep your fingers crossed for us as organizers and for everyone else who likes to participate in this little Midwest happening. Stay tuned.
