'Jesse does a monthly Legends of House party here in SF. For me, it's up
and down. In general he plays new uptempo progressive house type stuff. Too
hard and repetitive for my house. He plays some tracks that sample classic
house but with in my opinion annoying trancey production. Chip E was ok.
Alot of deep house classics and a few jackers if I remember correctly. It
would be cool to see the film. I mostly go to the night for historical
signifigance since those guys have been around so long. Here in SF the
night doesn't usually draw out the house crowd, mostly the general clubbing
public (i.e. meat markety scene), but that could be due to the
overabundance of skilled house technicians here. I was surprised
considering his dj sets, that Jesse Saunders did the R. Kelly remix of
Step in the Name of Love which is a very soulful house track if it's the
same one that I';ve heard played out a few times. Maybe he is trying to
distance himself from the past in terms of djing. Personally, I'd go the
show just for the self contained 1200 digital turntables ;) (I think he
might mean Final Scratch).

I think for the $10 this is worth going to, at least to catch the screening
of The Unusual Suspects
