I was too busy getting incredibly drunk on my b-day to make this trip . Wanted to, though. Does Matthew Dear come to Chicago often?

Had a great evening overall. It was great seeing the Camo-Mesh out, hearing tech on that sound system. Good to meet yeah Max & Diggerz, pleasure. Some amazing tracks were played. Danced longer then i have in a long time. Milo, I believe I attempted saying something to you upstairs by the bathroom but failed miserable due to exhausting and the booze, my apologies, lol.
Only real issue was the frequent amount of train wrecks and audio problems. We counted 7 times throughout the night during the opening set and ryan/matts set in which there were issues with beat matching/audio being almost shut off. At this stage it shoudn't be an issue.
Had an interesting conversation with Garth in regards to this issue. It's funny how tech heads seem to be the most critical in theory but when it comes to actual performance they seem look away. Myself or any other local would be hanged for that kind of performance. Regardless we had a mega time, checked crazy good tracks, danced our asses off and reached for the lasers.
I hope that these nights continue and would happy to be a part of them. The vibe, crowd and general atmosphere was great. Bravo.

i had an awesome time, but i wish i could remember hearing any music.
So, if anyone actually remembers any of the music.. did matt and ryan drop the accapella 'not everyone understand house music, it's a spiritual thing, a body thing, a soul thing' ... apparently I blackout txted that at like 4am?

I have yet to catch Elliot, but Seth Troxler once told me that "that guy just burns down clubs" so I'm kind of excited...
