Got there around 12ish while Jaytech was spinning. I got into a bit, but to be honest I was too busy thinking and getting excited about Above & Beyond to really listen to his spinning (my bad). I'll have to check out some more of his stuff online.
As everyone's been saying, the crowd was ridiculous. It seemed like everyone had somewhere to go and they had to go RIGHT NOW, cuz they were pushing and shoving to get through most of the time. I was up at the front left where some of the TA's I know reside, but my friends and I really wanted to get the full experience of the light show (which I think we all agree was fantastic), so we headed for the middle. Things seemed to clear up a bit around 2ish and that's when things really hit their stride. Tons of songs to sing along to and great energy from the crowd.
This was my first time seeing Above & Beyond in person, so I'm not as jaded as some of you guys who have seen and heard them play the same stuff several times. My only reasoning for that could be because they don't come here all that often, so they play exactly what they know people are going to like (catering more to the masses than the hardcore). But really, based off of their set, is anyone NOT going to Bal en Blanc this year??
