Yeah, a lot of the younger promoters do it via Facebook and bypass
the media.
I am really gutted. I would have loved to have caught Shake.
I think there's always at least someone who says something naff to a
DJ. About 5 years ago I played Ginuwine's classic Pony (this was a
commercial bar with R&B policy) and someone asked me to play
"something he could dance to." ;)
Now they're all dancing to those triple beats anyway. ;)

I only found out about Shake when I saw a poster under a bridge - and
even then I couldn't make out the date until I searched online... in
Sydney it was marketed as a house music party so if it was promoted
the same way in Melbourne that's probably why it missed your radar.

No! I found out about Shake's recent tour on Friday and was v
upset - I
can't believe I didn't know, I am gutted!
I wish that had been more widely known too.
I went to Carl, left at 6 with my friend and walked 40 minutes out
of the
city to her house... then caught a tram home.
Yes, I have heard similar C2 sets... it was fun, though. That
remix beats
anything else he played - it's totally amazing. On the new Deetron
Balance
mix-CD.

Did you catch Shake down in Melbourne? that was fun too, but
apparently some stripper of a girl went up to him and told him
she was
leaving because of his mixing (wtf?!).
I heard Rick Wilhite may be coming next year... fingers crossed
for that
one :)

I saw Carl down here - I missed a few Detroit gigs here this
year as I
don't
trawl Facebook. It was great but I wish he'd play that amazing
Ronny &
Renzo
Heartbreak Theme remix he has out!
He had Osunlade on the dancefloor too!

Hi all
We had Octave One (live) and Carl Craig (dj) in Sydney at the
Metro as
part of the Golden Cage party. Good crowd of "young" party
goers who
were really psyched for Octave One.
They played for close to 2 hours, and it was fun. It's nice to see
them rejig some of their older tracks, it keeps it fresh. I
think the
reason why I like seeing them live is that they're really into
it and
they look like they're having a good time. It was great to
have them
in town twice in a year.... what a rarity.
I didn't stay for Carl, he started at 3.45am and by that time I
was
way too exhausted!
Merry Christmas everyone!
Cheers
Melody
