Love Parade (my love trip)

Hello DeRavers,<br/>
first I have to say a big sorry, because the meeting point that I said
I will be at seems not to exist :-) Anyway here comes the story of my
love trip:

Because of the experiences of the last two Love Parades I
decided this time not to party on the thursday evening in my hometown,
but of course I did. DJ Mark-Oh started with a very nice hard House
set, played some Acid until he was so drunk that he couldn't mix
anymore. But I stayed there anywhere until the end at 5:00. The we
went to a place in the woods with about 40 ppl where someone with a
load car-audio made music and we chilled and waited for the sun. At
about 9:00 we (4 ppl) went to my home and took breakfast. I woke up my
girlfriend at about 11:00 we picked up our friends for the trip to
Love Parade and left Tuebingen at 13:00. On the Autobahn we met some
Ravers, but not as much as I expected. But when we arrived in the
evening in Berlin, the whole city was full of raving ppl. After a
Burger King and a talk to some ravers from the Netherlands we decided
to go to the E-Werk club and check out the "Wahre Liebe" Rave.<P>
The E-Werk is a really cool location. DJ Kid Paul started with
a really trancy slow set, with tunes I never heard before, but the
people really liked it and everybody danced. I decided to leave for a
short time, because I had toothache and I wanted to take an Aspirin,
but when I returned there was a bouncer in front of the main
dancefloor and he wouldn't let anybody inside. So I went to the
chillout places, but I didn't liked the music and the mood so I
finally left this place and went to the Tresor Club, where they played
trance and real slow stuff, so I left again. I took a quick look at
Elektra Club and Bunker Club, but all together this was not my night.

In the morning we left to a open air bath in Kreuzberg where I
got my first 3h of sleep since thursday morning. The whole bath was
full of ravers and it was really nice to lay down on the grass in the
sun. After we all took a shower we drove to the Freudenhouse party,
where we left the car and walked to the Bahnhof Zoo, where I realised
that there is no MacDonalds at the corner Zoo / Kudamm, because this
corner doesn't exist. So I went to Wittenberg Platz and waited for the
Parade to start.

The Wittenberg Platz was full of people waiting for the
Parade, they where sitting on the grass and chilling. Suddenly (15:00)
there was a shouting and everybody was standing up and shouting the
vibe was runnging through the whole city, you can't imagine this
energy. After we realized that this was not the start of the parade
everybody calmed down a little bit, but then ther was another shout.
And it kept on going like this until 16:00, with every shout you could
feel the energy. The people were freaking out when they heard a
helicopter and thought the music would start now.

Finally the first truck arrived it turnded the music on and
everybody freaked out. They played with the people, turned the music
on and off, to raise the tension. I staid on Wittenberg Platz on a
Gate so I could watch every truck. I made lots of photos (watch out
for them on the derave-www). I finally climbed on the last truck and
danced like hell. It was so f***ing hot, because of the generator, but
it didn't matter, this was it, this was paradise, this was pure
energy, how can anybody not understand the raving people. <STRONG>WOW!</STRONG>

The parade went on until 10:00 and I met a lot of people from
all over germany and some from switzerland. Everybody was so friendly,
I didn't see any aggressive people. The only number I heard was 80000
people on the parade, but I think it might have been even more.

After the Parade I went to the Unit Bath, but the entrance was
40DM and ther was a long line waiting, so we skipped that and went
back to Freudenhouse, this was _the_ place to go for house people (and
for gay people ;-) But it was a little bit hot for me, so I slowed
down a litte bit and chilled outside the club. After it closed at
about 6:00 in the morning (sunday), we left.

We went to the Love Bath in the SEZ again where they had a
sound system in an open air bath with lots of grass and trees. DJ
Massimo (Warehouse/Cologne) was playing and I danced as long as he as
playing (until 12:00) in the afternoon I was really tired, so I slept
a little bit, but then Sven Vaeth was playing. Normaly I don't like
his style, but I didn't hear him for a long time so I was really
surprised about his set. He really made the crowed move and hey played
until 22:00 and nobody wanted to stop (ok ... I was really tired ;-)

At 1:00 we left Berlin.

This was as good as the 1992 & 1993 Parade, don't miss the
next one.

People, I got to tell you: I am just not able to put all this
into words, this was just to good and I wished it would never stop.
