Yeah I was there too- that was the craziest rave moment ever.. 
The chaos of that riot was in the sound clash of: bottles breaking, people cheering, car alarms, police bullhorns.. all at once.. the cops wouldnt let anyone leave! They kept running the crowd back down one side of the street then another.. I heard the whole thing started with some vendor Herbal Bliss couldnt meet the demand in time so they substituted an ingredient in their pill, which that made alot of kids OD early & at the same time. This freaked out the police & they shut it down SECONDS before countdown.. thats why we broke the fence to get in, we wanted to be inside at least for the countdown..

someone caught that buss rocking on camera and it made the news.. there were people inside!? 
(I thought I saw it on youtube somewhere?)
