LOL! Honestly, I'd love to visit Avalon one last time. I'd like to see how the old club is. One of the few relics from our days.

I know the Solomun party is in Glendale just don't know the venue. Back in my younger days when I was InstaG, I'd see posts of him play an after party show (like Avalon), then an after/after party at a big house in the hills. Unfortunately, none of my friends are young so no one is in the loop anymore.

Originally posted by camshaft Just got tickets for S&D in LA in November - hoping they tear it up again. With a 5 or 6AM ending time I bet it'll be solid. Flying down Friday night and back home right after the show's over...straight into recovery with the kids at home, definitely going to feel that. Nice man, I've listened to them individually but not as a duo. You got me interested now! Gotta check em out.

We're going to have to have a TA meet up yo!!

As for Dixon and Ame... I think they are the best duo out there right now. But you have to see them do a 4+ hour set at least. anything less doesn't capture itl

Bro! That shit was fucking SIICCCKKKKKK!!! It honestly reminded me of their Spundae shows in SF when I first started clubbing. Wonderful crowd who were all respectful, good tunes, not overly packed. Fucking awesome night. I anticipated leaving earlier in the evening with being an old fart these day. Nope! Stayed till 5AM/closing. Brain has completely melted away. Thank goodness the wife is watching the kids today.

Dude yes! Glad to hear it was an awesome show. That's exactly how I felt after seeing them in Dallas in September, that old sound and feeling for sure. Hearing those classics like Mercury & Solace or LSG - Netherworld was mind blowing. Honestly I think the best S&D has sounded in ages. On the lookout for the next show. (And Dixon & Ame still).

Sasha and Digweed are and always will be the kings of the modern day dance music scene.

Yeah man. I'd wager this is my favorite era since the golden age of late 90s/early 2000s Northern Exposure/Twilo/Communicate. Stoked to see that pounding dark progressive sound making a return.

The wife and I went to Solomun this past weekend. The party was held at Frameworks new venue in Glendale called "Re-Frame". It's an old sound or film stage/studio near the Amazon warehouses. I have to say the venue (outdoor area) was awesome. The main was floor was HUGE and the production was done really well. I don't usually attend these big events (or hardly any events) unless we've got a few other friends going.

Musically, I'd have to say I enjoyed the openers set by Max Stlyer. Wasn't expecting a lot from him but he played really well. I'd love to see him do a proper headlining set.

Solomun played his typical Solomun sound. Lots of bangers with sampled vocals in background. I used to love this when he'd play old school songs that I was familiar (80s and 90s pop tracks and stuff). It sounded like he was using a lot of modern pop music (current main stream hip hop vocals) though. All in all, it was FUN. Danced a lot and appreciated the banging tunes. His set didn't take me to the deep end as Sasha and Digweed did a few weeks ago but still fun.

I appreciate what the Framework group does. Great artists and great production. My only complaint is the crowd. Maybe i'm a little older and can't relate to the younger group that they draw to their events. A little more ruder as well with shoving past people with no regard for others. I could be a little biased because I was just at the S&D warehouse party where everyone was just SUPER COOL yo. It's like 2 opposite ends of the vibe spectrum.

that's it for me. I'm retiring now.

Solomun was fun but yeah hard walking through the crowd.

We're down to less than 60 venues in SF (from ~120), so I'm so glad more capacity is being introduced. I don't go to venues anymore because they're always oversold - pretty much only do music festivals. It would be great if more supply could get out there to balance out the demand. Until then, i cant in good conscious spend money on tickets

Pier 49 is difficult for us to get to, and logistically challenging since its next to the arena, but still good to have a new high cap venue. i hope they do well to pull crowds away from the overpacked and oversold clubs
