I listened to that in my car on my way down to the club.
I'm dying to hear Ulrich's remix of Rachael Goswell's "Coastline" but don't have a working turntable nor an iPod. Hate buying MP3s. Strange that I'll buy vinyl that I can't play but not an MP3. I need a product in my hand. Also, I don't like the compression factor in an MP3. Oh, well. I can get it from my friend awhile to hold me over.
Luckily for me, the front was nice and quiet. All the musical computer nerds and geeks were up front and paying very close attention throughout the entire show.
It's funny how that is one of the very rare performances with crap sound that we could still very happily get through without it ruining the experience. How rare is that!? His sound wasn't the best when he played for my friend in London either. Hopefully, he'll learn to work that out. Most of it was probably already set for the headliners. With that said, the sound for M83 was actually pretty good. At least, as well as can be expected for the Mudhole of Sound (I say that lovingly) that is the Black Cat.
Does anyone know if the show sold out? It looked to me as though it almost did but not just quite. Next time around, I guess I'll have to buy an advance ticket. Sometimes I hate to do that just in case something comes up and I can't make it.
Snailhook, I saw Melt Banana too. Loading their equipement out of The Ottobar as I drove past on my way home. (Unless there was another Asian band that played than it may have been them.)
Flawd, one day you will grow up and repent.
Enjoy your rebellion and crap taste in music while you can. :p
