yeah you were there the first night (didn't hear me though), but it's a totally different location now (basement), there's a much better sound system and some quality djs... i am not forgetting otto's other point, i have no problem with constructive criticism, i just don't like the destructive criticism solely for the sake of stirring up discussion... because people take criticism to heart, you should make it constructive and not just put forth destructive criticism for the sake of argument... if you want an opinion of the music that night - everybody was blasting, in particular i liked derek plaslaiko the best - but what stole everybody's attention was the positive atmosphere there. funny by the way how nobody who was actually there has put forth any harsh criticism.... see you next time? _________ christian bloch http://mp3.com/bloch ____--
