I'm from Chicago, but I saw him in San Francisco Friday night while visiting for Thanksgiving. It was definitely packed and it seemed like most everyone had a really good time, so I think you'd really like seeing him. Personally I'm not the biggest ATB fan and Christopher Lawrence was more of my scene this weekend as far as my musical tastes, but I can say that ATB does his best to try to entertain the whole time he's up there. He had a microphone and there was a lot of crowd interaction, along with some scratching and he even spun with someone's pet parrot on his arm for a bit. I don't know what he played here in Chicago, but I noticed he had a few Gabriel & Dresden tracks, like Andain - Beautiful Things and their remix of Mindcircus in S.F., so I think he even makes an effort to add a local flavor to his sets. Though I'm not a huge ATB fan, I can say I had a good time and I really respect the way he interacts with everyone and seems to really enjoy performing during his set. If you're a big ATB fan, I think you would have had a great time, so hope you can see him in L.A. soon.
