Deadmau5 @ Irving Plaza review
Venue:
Ok, thought it was kind of shit at first. Guidos, kids, douchebags, whatever. Some dumb shit knocked my overpriced drink out of my hand and was like, sorry, I dont have any money, well yeah, bcs you're twelve. Take off your ski goggles idiot. But,... as soon as Joel hit the stage, all was forgiven, and thank god they turned the lights down .Way too bright during Sleepy & Boo and BSOD.
Music: killed it. Dirty, dirty. So much so I think I need a bath. Joel, did you research NYC and know we like our dirty minimal? An amazing hour or so of all Deadmau5 originals but with nice dirty mini loops between them. Loved it.
Encores, two of them for fucks sake. Granted it was only 2:30 (damn you irving plaza). I really wanted to hear a non vocal version of Faxing Berlin for a sexy encore, but the tracks that were dropped (tiesto and then 'reward is cheese' was it?) were pretty solid.
Overall awesome night. The venue was iffy, but I appreciate it wasn't some douche bag club like Pacha were every other 'big name dj' plays but is only full of $$$ and wankers. Also, the goodbye USB stick, it has EPS and PSD files on it for shits sake, and Joel was loving the dude with the 3G iPhone. As a nerd my self (iPhone developer by trade) it's cool that the geeks can own as well. Looking forward to the next Deadmau5 NYC visit,
