That’s what I thought. Wasn’t it at its peak of cool in the early-mid 90s? I knew quite a few “club kids” back then, and they all went... it simply wasn’t the scene I wanted to be part of (excessive drug use). Now, in senior positions at their employers and with children in tow, they wouldn’t dream of going.

The daytime shots in that video look like something from the Tatooine desert.

Love the irony of all the fuel that is burned to propel the vehicles and power the lighting.

It’s a very tough, desert environment.
