Got a chance to go see him tomorrow night, but haven't really kept track of what he's done since his Halcyon days of Elevation.
Is he any good live at the moment, or is it all Scream 2 BS?
Dammit. Scream 2 Album Launch Party. 'Extended Set'
CD's only about 80 minutes, right?
Decided not to go
Weather is crap, Ministry is a crap club, and I can't justify spending the stupid amount of money it'll cost to see a likely-mediocre performance.
Thanks for the feedback

If he's doing a tour to support the album, I'd imagine it's going to mostly be "Scream 2 BS". Probably also depends on how long he plays for whether he'll bust out the decent jams or not.

Someone posted a recent 8 hour set of him recently and it was literally 8 hours of cheesy breakdown pitch bend drop crap
I was going to see him in Tokyo back in July '08, but I left for London holiday the day he was due to play, so I've always thought I should go check him out, but those posts hurt my ears....

He was good until 05-06, after that he turned crap.
What is the current state of trance music?
Trance just got tired. With the trance elitists, it got to a point where trance wasn't fun anymore. It was too serious with all the purists, and it got to a point where people wanted to separate themselves from that and make fun music.
I think we're on the cusp of another big renaissance in trance. Make no mistake, these melodies you're hearing in Swedish House Mafia or Avicii tracks, those are trance melodies, they're just not labeled as such because the artists and the PR made it a point to note that they're not trance DJs. But now you've got Swedish House Mafia playing trance melodies and Tiësto playing house melodies, so it's just a matter of being a DJ and using everything that's out there to create a story and a night.
