Regga street party in the slums of Tel-aviv

Last night was a new sober expiriance for me i can't remember feeling so sane for a while...
i met up with my friend Shani at her mother's place in Tel-aviv and Annat joined us a while after... we wentt to see a band play in some dark underground pub (they were actualy VERY good or maybe i just haven't seen a deacent "rock" show in forever, save Roger Waters visit of course)
her mother warned us that there were alerts about a female terrorist in the area and pleaded us not to go out but we're young and life has to go on even now! when we were waiting for the show to start we sat outside on a bench and this weird looking guy was walking in our direction carrying a suite case... it freaked us out of course and we asked the securety gaurde at the place to check him out (i guess he was just some homeless dude or something... it sucks that we had to feel intimidated by him, if it was anywhere alse in the world i'd probably just dismiss him as just another person )
anyway after the show we drove to the south side of the city where all the cheep apartments are, to the ragge street party that was happening in some ally... there is a strong ragge scean going on in Israel right now but street partys are a sort of novelty for the scean over here (at least as far as i know) we joked a little about wether or not that female terrorist has dreads incase she decided to show up for the party and i refused Shani's pleading to listen to the news on the radio "i just want to know if they really caught her or it was someone alse, i just want to ease my mind about this" i told her that listening to the news will provoke nothing alse then more stress and decreed on no radio tonight! annat used a woden flute to make her voice sound weird and "reported" that the terrorist was indeed caught and that she had no dreads
i was worried i'd feel like a fake going to a "roots ragge sound system street party" in Tel-aviv of all places! but as it turned out it was actualy quite deacent (there were loads of people still left at 3:30 AM when we left!) and apart from the guy on the mic occatiounally rambling about the situation and trying to make it a little political and protest kind of vibe which was kinda lame, i managed to really enjoy my self while dancing in the hot sticky weather
the smells of ganja and hash came from everywhere but apart from a few tokes from someone's joint right befor we left i was sober the whole time... didn't feel like it though i love dancing, it took me about 40 minuts to get really into it since i haven't done much of anything lately but after that i was defenetly in the "zone"! lots of lovely ladys, smiling faces and good vibes from all around... i totally forgot about all the bombs falling 4 hours away from me! i made sure to thank one of the girls for her lovely smiles befor we left... i hope these partys are a steady thing and not just a one time production!
so yeah it's a kind of wannabie jamican scean but fuck those were some good vibes! i defently needed that

Hey, it isn't your war. I'm glad you had a good time, well deserved, and to hear some good news from your region for a change. Wow, a Reggae street party in Tel Aviv, now I heard it all
Just curious: What's the "psychedelic scene" like in Israel?

Sounds like fun. I think I might feel a bit more sketchy about going in the streets in Israel than you until the present conflict evaporates. How rare and brave

That sounds kinda surreal. I can sort of see why someone wouldn't feel sober in a situation like that.

i'm really out of the loop at this stage of my life so i have no idea... LSD is around, i've heard of some people who can actualy buy mushrooms lately (i thought that was vertually non existant over here) nature partys (trance) happen every week in summer but you have to know your way around and figure out which one's are good...
there are LOADS of stoners everywhere! people toke up at the beach, in the city parks, in partys and concerts almost without worrying... i've NEVER seen anyone slanging weed though at the music practice rooms where my friend works people toke up in the lounge without giving it a thought!
and yet i think i'm missing the question somehow... i'm not quite sure how you mean it...
@adjust: yeah it was pretty surreal
