Will they serve an electric daisy flower blend?
If you like your EDM in tepid environs, but the early morning workout rave is a little bit to juice cleanse-y for you, San Francisco will soon offer a perfect middle ground: an EDM-themed tea house called Gosu, where you can get bubble tea and big beats in the same place.
According to an interview with owner Joey Tran in Eater, PLUR (peace, love, unity, respect, but you already knew that) is the unifying theme of the tea bar, which will also serve Asian snacks and desserts:
“It’s not about drugs or anything like that. You know how you go into a bar and see people fighting sometimes because they’re drunk,” he said. “But you don’t see that at a rave because we believe in the concept of PLUR. That’s why I incorporated that.”
Ah yes, no one has ever fought at or been drunk at a rave because of PLUR. That is why you’ve never once heard about anything bad happening at a rave or that we didn’t even recently have a reason, at this very website, to run an article about how the word “rave” has negative connotations to some people. It’s because of PLUR.
According to Eater, EDM will remain a constant at Gosu, but because “millennials are so very finicky”, the food options will change with trends. No doubt, millennials music festival-based fascination with dance music will forever stay in tact!
We never heard anything from the folks behind the EDMunchies rave food truck after their Kickstarter campaign was (brutally) unsuccessful, but maybe the demand for PLUR snacks is great in San Francisco than in the Boston area.
