Basically a hardcore party first announced back in December.
Certainly much tamer than anything DBN did back in the day.

This is just a terrible tragedy.  I haven't been to parties in
Seattle in several years but the people there are generally very
cool, take care of each other, and have wide ranging musical
interests.  Once again the finger will point at the kids and
the music but this is obviously a case of someone who lost it,
and seven or more lives have been taken (a couple more very badly
injured are in the hospital).


I have a friend who lives 9 blocks down the street from the
site of the shooting.  He said it's his impression that the
'appy 'ahdcoah scene in Seattle is very White Trash and ghetto,
and that he suspects Meth is involved in this case.

Not saying this isn't a terrible tragedy but there's a good
chance these weren't the shiniest apples in Seattle's rave tree.

Lots of in-depth coverage of the shootings on this blog:

Terrible, terrible news.  The story has gone worldwide -- 240 separate
listings on Google News.
