yea i got in... i am of legal age you know ...
anyway, the place was absolutely packed and the vibe was great.
seth & mack were great. great mixing, great tracks (thanks for dropping 34k seth :) :).
liquid todd wasn't great... dropped some played out tracks and mixing was not on for almost the entire set.
hernan was absolutely incredible. played some amazing tracks and mixed flawlessly. i enjoyed his entire set.
oakey... what can i say. his mixing was shoddy at best, but played great tracks new&old... the crowd loved him, and even though all the people i came with were cringing during some of his weaker transitions, i can't say that i didn't enjoy it overall.
overall it was a very enjoyable evening minus some of the douchebags around us (those who were there know what i'm talking about). this type of event is great for the indy scene, hopefully everything builds on this.
it was nice to meet some new people (TAs and others). hoping to see everyone again in the near future. |

Being of age I had no problems either. Topher was there with his brother, and Chris was there as well so I'm not sure why they gave you at the door.
I didn't get to see Seth which was a big disappointment. Liquid Todd had a few technical flaws and played some lame tracks, but still managed to mix better than Cokenfold. Hernan blew the roof off the building like he always does(the whole reason why I went to the show). I had to fight my way through everyone to get his autograph, but managed to do so. Oaky dropped his first track right in the middle of Hernan's last and allowed both to play for a little bit, then proceeded to pretty much trainwreck every transition from then till the time I left. He played some good tunes, but the mixing was terrible.
Overall, I had a great time. I still can't believe we had a bill like that for a show in Indy. Seeing Hernan was a big thrill since I've been wanting to see him for a couple years now. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone at the Fortier show next week. |

i had a blast. my 3rd TA experience. i was ichin for another time to go out and listen to some techno/trance/etc. i would have to say it was extremely hot in there and nicely packed. i felt out of place too...which goes with the stigma of the club. not saying i wouldn't go again since another one is comin in about 2 weeks.
and they didn't have me on the VIP list which i paid for. "did you print your receipt?" no i don't need to. "are you sure it was this show?" are you kiddin me? how often does oakenfold come to indy on 7/11/2005. give me a break.

nice to meet a couple new people. it was def fun meetin back up w/ topher, pat, and phreek. ARMIN roadtrip. it's awesome i didn't have to drive or ride for 5 hours to get to the concert. i can't really critique on mixin as i don't know much on it but i liked some of the tracks. i was exhausted by the time Oakenfold got on the set. let's get a TA meet up organized next time prior to the concert.
and then seein a girl i knew from my hs. cot damn she's so hot. def a plus to see she's into that music. :wink: :wink: :eyes: |

Sorry Ben, thought you were only 20 ;)
From the sounds of things... Oakenfold was exactly the same in Indy as Milwaukee... |

I wasn't at all surprised by Oaky's mixing. I figured it wasn't going to be perfect, but was kind of shocked at how blatantly obvious he was making it that he didn't give a . He really didn't even try, but after playing for 30 years, having a massive cult follwing, and admitting he'd rather do movies than dj, it should come as no surprise that he does that and didn't think twice.
It's neat to see the guy play since he's a living legend in EDM. It would just be nice to see him put a little more effort into it no matter how bored he is with it. Which kind of begs the question as to why he's still touring if he's so bored? I know he was never an amazing dj technically, but I also know he could beat match if he really wanted to. |
