Looks like I was the only one that went.
He played from 1-2:45... seriously who ends 15 min early? The MC asks for one more tune @ 2:40, I'm like WTF.
Ok, some good and bad w/ Oakie.
KILLER tunes. If anyone can ID his first track or any tracks for the matter, drop me a PM. Some classic tunes from ~2002 ish. Overall just banging tracks.
He trainwrecked twice. He was lazy as hell. He hardly did anything but play tracks. His mixing was OK at best. Beatmatching should be used losely in his case. His beats didn't match up sometimes, maybe on purpose, sounded ok. One time a CD must have started skipping and it dropped the sound, he stood there confused for a bit, only to lazily throw on another track. One time he accidentally cross faded and the bass went POUNDED for a second, everyone freaked out. Near the end he left the stage for a good 2 minutes, everyone was confused.
In conclusion... he's clearly been around the block a few times. He looked bored and tired. However, his ear still has it. I had a fucking blast b/c of his track selection, lots of stuff I recognized, in general bangin tunes, maybe 3 filler tracks tops. I'd think he should be more appreciative of the crowd, but once you've played every gig on earth, I suppose it gets old. I'd consider him the Ozzy Osbourne of EDM. Past his prime, fucked up from drugs, but still a bad ass mother ******.
