‘Lighter’ paces up and down in front of the big screen. He makes
sweeping gestures and reveals to us all the secrets of a good
rave. However, my thoughts do not revolve around the next big
ComRa event. In my head I am still in the process of putting the
new insights together like pieces of a puzzle to form an overall
picture. Lighter must have known from the start that I was
attending his seminar today. He also knew that I was new.
Otherwise he would not have reacted so casually at the entrance
control. As the host of the seminar, he should be there before
his participants. So he knows me a lot better than I initially
suspected. So it is time to listen to his words. When my mind
focuses on his monologue, he is explaining how to deal with the
guests. “So always remember it is important that people feel
comfortable at our events, which also means that no one is
allowed to cross the other's borders. You too must pay attention
to this one golden rule. So be courteous and friendly, but not
intrusive. But I'm not too worried about that. After all, the
boss picked you personally because you have special social skills
and have a positive influence on those around you. So just be
yourself. Some of you will also be deployed at the entrance. Not
a big deal, actually. As you all probably know, we at ComRa no
longer work with cash. So you don't have the fuss with a cash
register and you don't have to worry about small change. People
just have to hold their capsule to the reader. You have to be
careful that the guest holds his capsule against the scanner long
enough so that the computer can read out all the data. You will
then get an overview on the screen in front of you. In
addition to general data, you can also see which ComRa events the
guest last attended and how long they stayed on average. If you
notice that someone has not been with us for a long time or
regularly leaves events prematurely, please speak to them about
it. Try to find out what the guest was missing or if they were
dissatisfied with something. If you meet such guests on the dance
floor after your shift at the entrance, try to make sure that
they feel comfortable this time and stay longer. How you do this
is up to you. After all, you are the experts and ambassadors of
music. ”He said the last sentence with a noticeable wink.
Immediately afterwards it was suddenly completely dark again and
a kind of "aftermovie" of the last event was shown on the big
screen. It does not fail to achieve its intended effect. Instead
of thinking about what I have heard, my organism is filled with
anticipation. Today's guest act Animal Picnic has already drawn
attention to itself through releases on Einmusika, Diynamic and
Steyoyoke. These guys definitely know how to stir anticipation.
