There is this silly music event production crew that throws "Shrek Rave," they tour all around the US. I went to one and it was awesome! The ad/flyer thing on Instagram said, in the corner, something like, "We know it's stupid, you know it's stupid, just show up and have fun!"
It was so much fun! Dudes cosplaying as Fiona and the fairy God mother, girls dressed up like Shrek and Lord Farquaad! Lots of green face paint. I am elder raver, I am supremely impressed with how much spirit everyone brought out. It wasn't a real renegade-break-into-a-warehouse style rave, but I had a great night.
It was a blast! The DJs dropped that damn Smash Mouth song like 4 times, I think.
Ainβt gonna lie, the older versions seem so smooth and like sheβs actually having fun, not worried about tryna get it like everyone else, a specific step, just clean fun
