Well I caught Marshall in Melbourne and he was on top of his game. Lots of great tracks, from garage to deep house to electro to techno. Sensational!! Unfortunately the venue - a new commercial house night - he played had put on a huge night the week before with David Morales/Harry "Choo Choo" Romero, which was sponsored by an advertsing company on the behalf of a cigarette manufacturer.
They spent a fortune on advertising. But there was virtually no lead up for Marshall, which was put on as a regular night. Bearing in mind that it is now winter in Melbourne, it was already a tough call. Also many house purists have decided to boycott this venue for various ideological reasons and wouldn't even show up for an icon. The tragedy is that the venue apparently didn't let Marshall finish his set - something which I personally think is terrible and very disrespectful to the DJ and punters regardless of the circumstances. It was just bad timing, the gig. I really felt for Mr Jefferson as he is the dearest man and a joy for the promoters and media to work with - he also has the most incredible memory. I really hope to hear him play again!! >Regarding Marshall Jefferson, I love his releases, and he has been there >from the very beginning --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
