not just good, the fuckin BEST times fuckin 5.

from what I've seen & heard so far this show might rival that.



pumped up like an ol' skool Reebok
if you think this doesn't smash the old shadow show to bits, something's wrong with you (or it's a really, really, really, really off night).

I was at that.

Come over from Adelaide for it.

It was pretty special.

BUT :shock:

I STILL haven't got my tickets for this show. Been waiting on backpay from work, which is taking it's sweet time to get to me :(

Hopefully it won't sell out by Friday!

i haven't heard much about this band before, but my friend said they play some nice songs.

the palace sounds like a nice quiet place to sit and watch some music on a weeknight.

i may drop in and have a cuppa after work.

every word in this is true. wish i could see again. 'representative of a lot of genres and styles' is definitely true: covers a lot more ground than brainfreeze/product placement. a _lot_.

Hands down the performance of the year. I'd actually go as far as saying that it was one of the best DJ sets i have ever seen. Ever. Phenomenal.
These guys re-define what it is to be a DJ.

How awesome was their encore? Coming out with oldschool portables!!!! Best closing ever!! Then they came down to sign merch!

Anyone got any pics/movies of the night? I left my camera at home and only managed to get a few shitty vids on my mobile. :(
