Rise 2/24/12

Another night of wonders happened as ravers trickled into Rise Afterhours Boston for Friday's usual White Rabbit event.

 Every week, more and more ravers have been attending Rise's Friday event, a night that used to be reserved for top 40. A miraculous change with a shift in ownership and responsibility for Fridays has created a legitimate and decent venue for raves in Boston.

More and more amateur photographs are present every week, adding their own unique flair to people's enjoyment.

Ravers are not the only ones increasing in numbers. Originally, only one photographer could be seen lurking around the floors of Rise but this Friday, the club was full of least five photographers, all having never met. That isn't to say their friendship didn't commence over their shared love for this art form.

Yet another photograph strikes a similar, almost instinctual pose that almost every photographer reverts to.

The night ended fairly early for most, seeing as it was a beloved raver's birthday and he was throwing a party in Providence for his raver family. Most left at 2 from Rise (yes that's early for ravers) and all proceeded to safely make their way to their destinations. The date for Dance Dance Rave-o-lution is slowly approaching and many anxiously await for that day to come soon.
