To be honest, I now wish I had gone elsewhere. we wnt there early sun to get tickets but the line was so long we just went home and to bed woke up at 7 am got there at 8 am and I wish we had gotten there a little earlier, but the perlon and minus tag team was awesome. rich was pretty into it and a maybe a little drunk he kept punping his fist and dancing on stage after he was done playing. I really enjoyed the tracks he played very minimal with grinding basss lines and all the looping he was doing it was sick. very minimal and german sounding. also around 11 am richie played this track that I would call "epic techno" not something you would dance to but very interesting and uplifting it lasted maybe 15 minutes and when he was done the whole place was clapping for like 3 or 4 minutes. > well on the Quadraphonic soundsystem > it had a huge impact and was really rocking the crowd! I talked with the sound guys because I was interested in the system and they told me it was not a quad system it was stereo, but it sound so damn good, clean and LOUD. > > And Richie Hawtin has nothing on him for > > volume.
