mars Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 I'm not posting often here, but I wanna share something: Today I'm 30. I thought I would never reach that. However, just add 4 years of babysitting, 20 of studies, 6 of work and here you are. One day, you wake up with that age that categorizes you among the old ones, those who make the average age of a party or festival rise. Those who prefer to drive a break instead of a coupé, those who don't undertsand all those new technologies, those who prefer their 5 year old jeans, those who don't get what all the young ones find so interesting in these new darkish musics... Count 1 billion seconds, that's it you're 30. That's nothing after all. - Sounds fucking grey - Yet, this morning, at 8.30am, a psytrance friend called me from Paris, at 3pm another one from Stockholm. Among those 30 years, if you can count 12 years of Psytrance, including 7 of Psynews, that sounds much more fun, isn't it ? I believe Psytrance made my life much more colourful. Psytrance helped the so shy me meet so many different and enlightened people, be it on sharp cliffs on Ibiza, in the middle of a desert in California, in the green Slovenian Alps, in a Belgian fiestzaal, in the Canadian countryside, in old French medieval highlands, in some retro hall in London, in a forest in Sweden, in a military base in Germany, in a hotel in New Zealand, in the black-prince castle in Bordeaux, on a beach in the Netherlands or in Greece, in a shop in NYC, on the 14th floor of a building in HongKong, in so many places in Paris... Hundreds of parties, thousands of tracks, millions of 4/4 kickdrums in so many countries....and Psynews...and you. Parties drove my feet, tracks drove my head, kicks drove my heart. I feel alive thanks to all this. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abasio Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Happy Birthday Mars! I'm still dreading the big 3 0 As long as you have done a lot (and it seems you have) in your 30 years you should be happy. Some people get to 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 & they haven't done half the things you've done! Many Happy Returns of the Day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basilisk Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Happy 30 Fabien! I like your perspective on things... and hey, not only have you had a good experience with psychedelic trance, but you have also given so much back.

vancbc Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Here's a 33-year old psytrancer sending good vibes your way on your b-day. :-) Gather on a forest dancefloor with other voyagers who have taken a look into the infinite and young or old, it's all the same. It's great to be a part of the psy community. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest antic Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Happy birthday Mars! Don't worry - life starts after 30. I'm 32 soon myself, so trust me as oldest member of this forum you still don't know this topic should be in off topic and not general Hmmm... There's something wrong with this - it says I joined the forum on 10th of February 2000 and Mars almost a month later, but he is a member #2 and I'm #221. That's not fair [EDIT] one more post to 2000! Yeah, I know I'm slow... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snapinho Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Hippy birthday dude! And to counterbalance everybody else (you suckups), 30 is indeed really, really, really (REALLY) old. You old man. Did anyone give you a cane for your birthday yet? You might need one soon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatsu Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Happy Birthday, Mars! Very nice post, I like your point of view! And don't think too much about age, just take a look at TranceChick and Pixiejanet, they are way older than we and still going full power.

Pandemonium Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Happy b-day brother, Your not 30 years old, Your 30 years young. Just remember, age is nothing but a number.
