Any ravers here in IB?

Basically title. I may or may not get into IB later on in my life but I thought this would be a nice place for a discussion. How many people here go to raves/festivals? I’m talking traveling to other states for edc, coachella, etc…

If you were one before how did working impact your rave life and do you still go to them?

It’s fairly common but wouldn’t expect people to chat much about it at work given drug use pretty heavily implied. I would expect to not go to as many as in college, and for the ones you do go to you may get blown up last minute or just be anxious that you might get blown up.

As a 2nd year analyst going to PE though I’ve been able to go to stuff a lot, but 1st year not nearly as much

Other guy is capping, raving is definitely spoken about at work. Drug talk included.

It’s hard to get time off for an out of state fest though. Thankfully NYC has plenty of great venues out in bushwick/ridgewood.

In the grand scheme of life, I bet this has happened before.
