very nice show at the hob 2nite! fuckin max graham rocked it........really like his style, very similar to sander k, he played a great selection of tunes....me, neil, rach, phil, amber, and james all represented TA up front and center...james you should not have left early! it was amazing after you left.....N Gaia-dream came true freaking owned me. really like max's crowd interaction-he gets into it and really acknowledges the crowd- he was having a blast up there... classic moment was him running back from the bathroom, whipping his forehead and then bowing to us before throwing the headphones back on ///at the end of his set / he started scratching on the tables and the cdrs!!!!sick... he closed with Evanencense!!!! hob actually didnt shut down early to my surprise and he played past 3! so tired, going to bed...probably could id some more tunes tomorrow....

I copy and pasted Ryan's post in the other thread to start this one off because it is a good review.

Max Graham rocked the House of Blues last night! It was so worth driving almost 2 hours and in the pouring rain to go see him! Max's style is very similar to that of Sander, but it's still his own. Very unique. Gotta love throwing down a remix of Photograph. WTF? The bathroom break moment was definitely classic. I'm not too sure how many caught that! I loved his interaction with the crowd as well. Always important to have. Love the scratching as well. Second half of his set was bad ass. I was loving every minute of it.

Ryan, Neil, Rachel, Phil, James...it was great hanging out with you guys! I had such a good time!

Max...you had an awesome set! You kicked my ass! I'm still dying over that remix of Photograph! Be sure to tell Sander that he hooked you up on that one because that shit was bad ass. I'm glad that you had a good time because we were all definitely having a good time as well. I had a good time hanging out with you. I'm at work dying...thank you very much. Looks like you won't be doing too much today with all of this rain. Next time you are down we will take you to Islands of Adventure. Have fun in South Beach this week!

I have two words for you...

"Bang Head"!

I think I need a nap!

You just now got home? Geez...and I thought I had a long morning!

HOB is so stupid when it comes to pictures! I'm sure Max could have given a damn if his pic was taken.

OMG! hahaha! His red and white shoes! Ummm...I think they were Pumas? eh? Sorry Max...I don't remember! hehe! Yeah...they were bad ass!

EDIT: I stand corrected...burgundy and cream!

Posted by RachUCF1001 on Jul-19-2004 23:02:

haha, Max is a TA, niiiice!

So im sure he'll be reading this, now Im confused whether to type in second or third person when referring to Max! Anyway...

I wasnt really sure at ALL what to expect as far as what style he'd go with for his set since Ive heard him play literally EVERYTHING: Trance,Harder trance and progressive, tribal,techno! Hell- everything like i said!

What i WILL say is that his set DEFINITELY took me (or Us rather!) on a JOURNEY!!!!!!!

It was amazinggggggggg! Funky bassline throughout pretty much the whole set, and had its trancier and emotional yummy points thrown in here and there. I just rememeber being like WOW this song is sick, then the next track Ive got goosebumps and its so yummy and emotional and then BAM !!!!!!!Max drops something harder right on your damn head that makes you u jump out of nowhere. Pretty diverse

Totally mint.

A few tracks I can remember off the top of my head:

**Michael Burns-Forwards
--(This was the second song played I believe in the set.. ***Neil***: the one you asked me about!

**remix of Photograph- not sure by who though?
**Filterheadz-Yimanya
**N Gaia-Dream Came True

Encore: G&D/Evanescence-Hello

There were many more I knew but I just dont the ID...

Every track was great though, I still cant believe HOB stayed open that late! Not really sure why but w/e, it was awesome!

The crowd (at least where we were dancing) was loving it, we all had such a great time. Max seemed to be enjoying himself as well esp after the potty break HA!Im really glad you made it through all that rain Amber, (and PHIL too) , I HATE driving in the rain, esp in the dark and long distances like you guys-
But at least it was worth it, right!?
and I love the group arm in arm dancing, thats the best hahaha--

I love you guys! Good times for sure!
