HIPSTER RUNOFF

I wish I lived in a country where electronic music was more vital to the economy than oil, corn, and telecommunications. If I lived in France, my life would be more authentic. It looks like a place where no1 is afraid to D.A.N.C.E. It looks like a place where u can be urself, even if that means wearing neon shirts and stuff like that. It looks like a place where things are authentic enough to keep me from becoming a blatant consumer-coreAltBro. A place where I can listen 2 music without worrying about the image attached 2 bands, and just appreciate the 'art' part of music. Sounds scary...but kinda rewarding.

So did yall go to the Techno Parade? Do u wish ur city had a Techno Parade? Or would you rather have them call it a "Bloghouse Parade" or a "French House FilterCore parade"? Did Jousteece and Yelle get 2 perform? (sorry dont really know what tecktonic0 is.)

Are Techno Parades the new Gay Pride Festivals/Raves/Local Festival that celebrates ur city's lame culture?

Is there anything more annoying than a French person having a good time, yelling stuff that u don't understand in French? Maybe I wouldn't have had fun at the Techno Parade unless I bought some Rosetta Stone tapes.

I'm rlly still not sure about the differences between certain genres in electronic music. Have u ever been listening 2 some amazing bloghouse/electro, and some1 says 'I didn't know u listened 2 techno?" Does that offend u, yeah?
