saw SMD last night in a small sold-out club here in chi-town... RAWKED. not quite transcendental, but damn close. definitely one of the better DJ sets i've heard in a while. hard to pin down stylistically - generally electro-house dipping into trance at times. i successfully snagged a ticket outside the venue, which held only 200 people. place was packed but everyone was really nice about giving you space to dance, as best they could under the cramped circumstances. tons of smiles. highly recommended.
this is what a justice set should be like - in a dance club, not a concert venue, and packed but not so much so that ones has no space to dance. and speaking of, justice will be spinning at this same little club on thursday, after their show. i'm tempted to go - while i'm over justice's live show, i'd be interested in hearing what they spin. unfortunately they won't be behind the decks until midnight or 1 am, and i need to be functional the next day... dammit. might need to call upon ye olde disco nap.
