    +Someone asked me in August: “So just no more DIY raves then?”
    +
    +Yeah.
    +
    +One word. No qualifiers. No “maybe when things cool down” or “we’ll see how the case plays out.” The DIY era is over. It ended on July 12, 2025, two hours into our 37th event, when a coordinated enforcement operation shut us down, put me in handcuffs, and left us with felony charges and $25,000 in building violations for a property we don’t own.
