Armin, Junkie XL and some other guy - Dallas - 07-23-2005
Just got home, AvB fucking owned. There's just no other way to put it.
He completely embarrassed Jokenfold, and for that matter he owned PvD's last performance at the Lizard Lounge by at least 100%. This was my first time seeing him and I've always heard from friends that have seen him live that he plays more on the progressive side. Well, not tonight...he was dropping some nasty tech that was relentless. He also played a few tracks that bordered on the hard side as well, one in particular was a version of Scot Mac - Damager that I'm not familiar with, I'm guessing it's a bootleg that he's done. This was all balanced out with some very nice melodic trance at the right times. Really, really great set.
Junkie XL, I had never seen him before either, but he put on a damn fine show as well. Great energy and some very good tracks. One thing that I really liked about him was his crowd interaction, very cool. If we could have cut Jokenfold out of the middle, it would have been perfect.
And uh, speaking of Jokenfold...ya, after he wrecked his very first mix, I went outside for the rest of his set to cool off. So ummm, no comment.
