I was Skittles during Tekno club days in dtla..everyweekend for 3 years..and every good rave for 2 more.:) that was 2000-05 - now I go to rock shows and concerts, but as far as raves..insomniac nocturnal events are only ones i go to just to see where the scene is going..definitly not as good as underground days..coachella closet thing to rave for me these days..:)

Umm @ Happycow_moo Rockie DIVA Racoon is part of the first generation... published in Project X Magazine and toured all over the united states with the wonder twins.. sugertwist kids and more so as accurate as you are that some Like myself are second and third generation.. Rockie is my Club Mother and the person who helped launch me, As a member of the House of fierce Ruling divas, maybe you should do a little more investigating into a shop of memerobilia and realize.... The mother still rules the west coast and Still holds her title of Queen of West Coast Nightlife! Xo Miss Conception

@eroticcity @happycow_m00 It has become increasingly apparent that these divas stick together. :)

@happycow_m00 Please be kind. You tend to name drop alot and the names you mention all know who i am. If you speak of dj's and promoters. Get your facts straight befor you state your opinion. I began in 1989 back in the underground scene in L.A. I happen to be 42 years of age. I got my schooling direct from the big apple. I brought it back to L.A. where i schooled different generations of kidz. There should not be any argument. I didnt state my age in the article as a joke. Geeez lighten up. I dnt see why i need to justify my life to you. As for boo boo he came years after me but became legendary! The correct name is "Boom Boom" As for steve Loria he is one of my besties. We are not claiming to be original club kidz. I am beyond that tile. Personality is more suited. Please dnt begin your drama. Its about positivity and good vibes. If YOU REALY KNEW you'd keep quite. Thanks for reading . Stay tuned this story is not over. Perhaps when the full story is released you'll come to understand. :) Dnt be mad. Remember love & light.

I remember the kid from home alone who played that club kid who chopped up some other club kid. Can't remember the name of the movie, but the guy is in prison now.

MMullinsCollegian

@James Recinos The story of Michael Alig, originally written by James St. James. The book was called, "Disco Bloodbath." The movie was called, "Party Monster" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qV7MND4r0mY

Not the orginal....if they are still Ali e and survived the hallucinogens and speed they be 40+

happycow_m00

Sorry but these are not original club kids this could be argue 2nd or even 3rd generation. Original club kids are into their 40 and older. Think about it the average age is 35 and one is 29. One was born in 1983 really! Raves began happening around 1991 how could someone who was 8 at the time be attending? As an old time raver these kids where still in Elementary school when the scene first hit L.A and would I have not been partying so Damn hard I would remember the original bunch..at last the drugs ha!!! These kids love em learned it all from us....

@happycow_m00 Of course, there are more than just these club kids, and yes- this article is focusing on really notable ones on the West Coast primarily.

Club kids can be traced back into the mid-eighties, at that point they had no real name. Club kids form into clicks, and the oldest of them in this article, Rockie Raccoon formed a group, adopting these club kids along the way. There are many club kids, too many to do bios on all of them. These ones wanted to be a part of this article, so here they are.

happycow_m00

@mmullins.LAWeekly @happycow_m00 well then the article shouldn't use the term orginal....it would be more appropriate to call them Millennium Club Kids as the Club Kids it associates them with where from the late 80's. Lots of misinformation in this article.

@happycow_m00 Hi Darling.... Thanks for the Praise but I started my Club Kid life in 94! I Raved and went to Goth Clubs back in 89-93!

@happycow_m00 I'm pretty sure that you mean Boom Boom, who was actually in the scene about 5 years after Rockie Raccoon. Boom Boom is yet another part of Rockie's legendary "coven" of club kids.

MMullinsCollegian

@happycow_m00 do you mean, boom boom?

happycow_m00

I don't know where he is now but all sorts of early promoters knew him. Even DJs like Marcus Wyatt could probably recall him nobody was doing it like him in those early days. He was really the very first here in L.A everyone else came later.

happycow_m00

@mmullins.LAWeekly the first club kid in Los Angeles that my brain can go e credit too was this overweight kid that went by the nick name BooBoo. He was the first that I ever remember seeing. He used to show up all painted in crazy outfits during the very early days of the scene here in L.A. I remember him as a lizard and a dragon. I saw him in a pyramid like cage once sitting inside like a futuristic Jabba in a pyramid once. If anyone was the Original it was the Kat right there and I am talking about .1991

Here's Rockie Raccoon on the JENNY JONES SHOW. :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgESgHcT7r8

@happycow_m00 Once again, these are the ones that came forward when I put out the word. They are definitely REAL club kids and part of the original group of them on the west coast. Thanks for reading. I consider any club kid in the 80s and 90s part of the original generation, because a generation is 20-22 years in most cases. Thanks for reading. I was there too.

happycow_m00

If the writer wanted too really research the original L.A club kids he should have look up the Sweedish Eagle or Steve Loria since these catz can probably best give you names.

happycow_m00

Well I am merely saying is that according to this article these kids took the style from the NYC Club Kids and brought it too L.A which is impossible given their ages. I am not disputing that they didn't rave but they surely are not the ones that should be given the credit on a newspaper. The NYC club kids which the movie Monster ball is based on were on the scene in the late 80's early 90's these people couldn't even get into too a PG-13 film at the time. I am merely pointing out the writer was lazy in his or her research.
