Rave, rave dance or rave party is a term first used in the 1980s to describe Acid House Parties (often all-night events) with fast-paced electronic music and light shows. At these parties people dance to dance music played by DJs and occasionally live performers. The genres of electronic dance music played include house, trance, techno and jungle (often collectively referred to as "rave music"), with the accompaniment of laser light shows, projected images and artificial fog.

How would you go about throwing a rave party?
Q. My best friends and I are planning on throwing a joint Sweet 16 party and we all decided on a rave. One problem, we have no idea what to do in the way of planning them. We have a Dj and everything, but we don't know what we should buy and all that stuff. We are going to try to keep out all drugs and alcohol, so stay away from that, but all help is appreciated! thanks!

A. Is this a open event, or are you just inviting your friends. If its open event you wont keep drugs out, because its a rave and a lot of ravers do drugs. There isn't anything you need to buy. Maybe put up some neon black lights so peoples kandi shows up cool. Maybe buy glowsticks if you wanna give them away free.

What would the liability issues for a rave be?
Q. I'm turning 16 and I am thinking about throwing a rave for my party. Do I need to get insurance or something?

A. Isn't that one of those parties with illegal drugs? You will need to get illegal drugs, and a DJ, and lights, and a fog machine, and a sound system, and some crooked cops, and insurance, and some of those little Binkies that the girls suck on. You should also get some cool energy drinks in the metal bottles, and some Cheese Twists. And Fritos. Don't forget the Fritos. Can I come?
