[Dynagroove] have "massives" become passe?

[gravity electric]

thanks katie for bringing this to light...
i'm really worried about the future of the dance community in light of the
recent passing of this act...

for all of you who throw parties, who have locations, who attend...this
affects you...and we haven't seen just how far the govt. intends to take
it...

as of right now, the act is pretty loose on who gets prosecuted for what.

since you're on the internet so much, i urge every one of you to find out
what you can do to preserve some of our rights to gather and party as
citizens of this country...

more and more we're getting those rights hampered and deleted...
