By chance, synchronicity, or both, Dave Rave (née Dave DesRoches) showed up at a gathering in a suburban Toronto apartment in the spring of 1988 at the same time as underground pop luminary Gary Pig Gold.
By this time, the newly christened Dave Rave Conspiracy, in addition to DesRoches, Gold, and Shivers on guitars, featured ex-Washington Squares bassist Lauren Agnelli and former Television drummer Billy Ficca, and the quintet played frequently in and around both New York City and Hamilton.
This also led to a reunion of the Conspiracy at the July 2001 International Pop Overthrow Festival in Los Angeles, featuring, in addition to original players DesRoches and Gold, guitarist Jason Frederick and, as the rhythm section, Lisa Mychols and Robbie Rist of the Masticators.

But the rave world that Estopinal was creating must have seemed monstrously weird to Templeton, who had come to New Orleans after being a cop in rural Johnson City, Tenn., for four years.
It's common, he wrote, "for persons involved in rave management to allow patrons to touch and massage one another to enhance the heightened sensory perception to palpation created by the use of [ecstasy]."

When Buddy Woodward and underground pop luminary Gary Pig Gold were introduced to each other in Greenwich Village in 1990 by Gold's Dave Rave Conspiracy bandmate (and former Washington Square) Lauren Agnelli, the seeds of one of the finest, albeit decidedly out of mainstream earshot, country-pop bands of the '90s were planted.
The well-traveled Woodward, a former child rodeo competitor in California, had previously toured across America throughout the '80s with Chris Von Sneidern's Lost Patrol and such stellar British mod revival combos as the Jet Set and Squire, and was, in fact, fresh from a stint in London playing with Smalltown Parade.
Like Dave Grohl and his Foo Fighters, the duo officially christened their emerging band the Ghost Rockets in 1992 after the UFOs frequently spotted over Europe during World War II that bewildered Allied pilots.

It marked the debut of longtime studio supporting player Dave Rave (born Dave DesRoches) as an official fifth member, on guitar and backing vocals.

 new world order - conspiracy theories - rave culture - parallel youniversity
There are five stages to rave culture and the first is where most of them are today, even here in the U.K. And that first stage is the "shake it all loose" stage, where the mind is emptied by identifying into the body and the heart.
What's happening now with the flowering of rave and the consequent crackdown against it in America is as near a perfect fractal of what happened in the U.K. eight years ago as life ever offers.
Based on the old school renegade rave principles of the anti-club experience, Come-Unity is a wildly optimistic house party that features deep, sometimes psychedelic tunes, and a sincere sentiment of "deep into the vibe of house" dance floor camaraderie.

The real target is rave clubs, the all-night party spots where dancing, pulsating music and strobe lights are often combined with recreational drugs.
As Rave Culture grows (a Culture meaning a lot more than just going to an occasional party) and as the government tries to repress it, the faults (in the Old Culture) become more and more glaring.
A day will come when every town in America will boast its very own Rave posse or two, and each of them will want (quite naturally) to live the primary myth of Rave Culture and take their sound system to the forest and "common land", there to dance barefoot on the grass.

But if there's one thing a musician doesn't just love to do besides playing, it's eating, and, of course, Zal went even that vice one better by opening up his very own restaurant inside a landmark Kingston, Ontario livery stable.
Chez Piggy, along with its sidekick bakery Pan Chancho, kept Zally literally cookin' throughout the final chapters of his tumultuous life, and I'm proud to claim that while on the road with the Dave Rave Conspiracy combo I had the pleasure of lunching within the fabled walls of Chez Piggy myself.
In fact, it's rumored that our guitarist at the time had once actually dated Zal's daughter Zoe, so armed with this information - and pledging my undying love of "Alive And Well In Argentina" -- we relayed a request for the man himself back to the kitchen as dessert was served.

Italian: `[to] slow down.' Dave, who was driving, thought those signs meant `curve ahead.' Close enough in context, I guess.
In Italian (and in Spanish, for that matter), lento is the adjective meaning `slow.' If your Italian comprehension is worse than your speech, Italians may answer you in a normal conversational speed.
A rank is a row of eight squares on a chessboard, ``horizontal'' in the standard representation that shows the original positions of the white pieces along the bottom of the board -- viewed from high above the white side.
