- Actually, Dave has it right. Dance music has been around for ages, and
- will continue to thrive. Rave will soon die, and the music will probably
- go back underground. I guess this is alread happening in the UK at the
- moment with the current house revival.

- I'm not too sure this is such a good thing. I mean, the music was far more
- interesting a few years ago, but *DAMN* that house music was all but impossible
- to find around here. I do think that techno/rave needs to die so that it can
- be reborn and revitalized. I look forward to hearing more house, but not
- to driving 400 miles to Wax Trax in Denver to buy it.
