(Review) Pendulum w/ MC Verse@ Footwork

I am man who admits defeat and will take back every single bashing I made towards Pendulum.

Here we go ...

Got off work and arrived @ 1230am and the secuirty has confirmed they have fill to cap. and will not allow anymore ppl in. So I was a bit turned off here, and was about to head home. No dancing space and expected the set to be chessey and horrific mixing. Given their set at WMC wasn't so great at all and the last time I saw them was 3yrs. So I call my manager to escort me in, 15 mins later, he walks me and my co worker in from the back and next thing you know ... we're chilling in the DJ booth. I look over to the crowd and damn that shit was packed.

Now, the set Pendulum layed down tonight was fucking UNREAL!

Programing = 10/10 - All sub genres were covered

Track selection = 10/10 - Amazing, I assumed and expected them to play all of their tracks ... totally wrong. Matrix & Futurebound - Universal Truth & Sub Focus - Airplane was dropped!

Mixing = 10/10 - flawless mixing with no rewinds at all, double drops and teasing was beyond perfect

MC Verse - 10/10, amazing job and even Sasha commentted the same, and we all know he's not into DnB and he liked him.

VIBE = 10/10 - Amazing, full of NRG! I heard msuic and the crowd roaring from outside

Pendulum is now tied w/ Andy C in my books ... BIG UPs! Thanks to Sasha and Katie for coming, really good to see you guys!

Goodnight - 6am.

Why do I think that "footwork sluts" is a more appropriate title?

Wicked shot!

ROFL @ the girl next to the pillar there.

- "What'd you stare at her ass for?"
- "I wasn't looking at her ass! I thought I saw something on the floor!?!?"

OMG I AM SO GLAD THAT PEOPLE CONVINCED ME TO GO TO THIS!!

I am barely awake at work right now, and I have had a charlie horse on my leg since last night. My coworker asked where I was because apparently I look a bit sketchy.

Hahaha, I still have the stupid band on my wrist.

I want to write my review NOW because I am so excited, but it will have to wait.

Dude, I've always loved DnB I was just saying that I usually hate MC's cause they ruin it for me! But yeah, we all agreed that MC Verse was pretty good and not annoying at all to my surprise! Good Job!

Had a Blast last night! WOW is all I can say! I had really high expectations and fuck... Pendulum still blew my mind! FKN PERFECT! Best set I've heard this year! With Glaude and Jelo at O'lounge tonight, this should be a weekend to remember!

Great seeing you John! Thanks for everything again!

I loved not being the only drunk one there.

Quote of the night (by Smashka):

"I am getting sick of house. I really like DnB."

P.S. I DEMAND that you post the pics sooner (except for a select few that I told you to delete). Hmmph.

Awww, I keep posting. This isn't even my review yet!

.. i gotta stop being such a good employee

Posted by me@t k@tie on Mar-31-2007 15:11:

I let Smashka do most of the picture taking so I could focus on dancing. I did take a few weird pics (and about nine videos).

I missed Pendulum again???!!! FAAAAAAWK! (punches work monitor and it flickers from the impact). If Baron's St. elmo was played I am gonna break my Monitor.... I really need to read the even list more often.

WMC was spun by El Hornet & Gareth. Yeah it was a totally different set. Last nights had so many old skool Pendulum tracks. Voyager, Vault, Back 2 You, Spiral, and the new Noisia remix of Masochist He also dropped the new KRS-One & Noisia track Exodus

Well I think Ultra was more a showcase set on a main (non-DnB) stage. I was at both, and I even told MC Verse this Toronto show kicked Miami's ass, and he was like "yeah we love these smaller gigs way more. Takes an hour just to get the crowd warmed up at the big ones" lol.

Here's a pic I took at Ultra:
