T he rave generation has grown up. The shimmering spirits of Manchester, London and Ibiza, who used to drift across the dancefloor all jagged angles and grinding jaws, now drive Volkswagen Passats and order clothes from the Boden catalogue.

They patterned the nights of a generation, giving an illicit chemical shimmer to the otherwise innocent pleasures of dancing and flirting and repetitive music. And now that the rave generation is approaching the clang of middle age, now they have mortgages and children of their own, we expect them to put aside their childish things, to live clean or merely alcohol-fuddled lives. Several findings stand out: the fact that drugs are now taken principally at home, suggesting that the ravers, techno-heads and trance fiends are now cutting up their drugs on coffee-table books, rather than boshing them on sweaty dancefloors.

I get this because I have three daughters in middle school right now.
