hmm...hard question. Something i've sat with for years, wondering what is this "thing" or "feeling" that has drawn me back over and over, despite inconvience or exhaustion or the cops showing up as if this "thing" we are doing is wrong. I don't have a name for it. I can describe it as a relief, a blissfulness of being or feeling connected to myself and the music and my body AND the folks around me, smilling and sharing in what I imagine to be a similar experience or feeling.
Uh-oh, long answer
