I was very active in the goth scene in my late teen / 20s and then started a career and just had no time. I’m in my 40s and started going out to dance nights and there to reconnect with this part of my world. I’ve noticed that there’s a lot of elder goths out there and felt very welcome. Many of us are bringing it with style! Dancing again was really good for my dark and neglected soul.

If you’re in your 40s-50s do you still go out dancing? What has your experience been like?

Never mind explaining AI art, how do we get DCD off of Facebook and then into someplace we can all read what Brendan has to say.

Hey fellow bats,

Just wanted to see what are the experiences (and advice) from both new-ish goths and elder goths in your scene. Specifically where the scene is dying out/experiencing an identity crisis.

As much as I love my local goth scene, we are facing inconsistent events and the music that is being played is also being inconsistent. Not to mentioned there's also drama behind the scenes that have made things hard to have a consistent audience. We have also lost beloved venues left and right, which means the only consistent events that many babybats have are corporate emo events and some metal events. (I won't go too detailed on the issues we have, to not start any fire)

So the question is: how will you even start to save the scene if you are in this situation? I don't know anything about event management and kind of want to be a DJ to be able to spin stuff that people wants to hear. I'm curious about your thoughts and advice. Thank you.
