I saw him in dublin and was suitably bored. I missed him scratching two of my mates names tho, which would have been funny. I think Im just a bit bored of all that scritchy scratch shite, used to love it tho.

The visuals were good...

Some djs provide you with something to see. Girl ones have boobs, innit.

I thought it was a bit meh, ended up leaving early

i'd to leave the cork show early too. not cos it was shit though, cos i couldn't stand/function properly anymore ... can't hack 2 all-nighters + sunday drinking beginning at 4.00 anymore ... fuck sake, only caught about 15 minutes of cut chemist an all. good weekend all the same though

i liked the black and white arthouse movie they were projecting on the wall...

you must have money to burn if you were flitting between expensive venues last night!

the "meh" factor was present in the form of people cheering whenever he dropped a J5 tune of did some fancy scratchy sheet...

what gesture usually accompanies a "meh"? shoulder shrug or frown?

edit: about 340 i fink.....

A properly executed meh involves no body movement whatsoever, such is the mehness of the subject in question.

And as it happens i'm super broke, but gugai was nice enough to let me into the gig in the roisin free, which was great. Unline the band.

Just working on the photies now, i'll post them in a min.

 

[gugai]

death disco?


!bog

 

[Zeelander]

oh right. i meant a show that was on outside of dublin.
sorry for not being at the dublin one.
please forgive me.

p.s. i think the expression is to "throw down some tunes"

FYI

That's not what we say in Mighty Dublin.

hahah those were your mates? BENNNNNNNNNYYYYYYY MOTHERFUKKKERRRRRRRRR - funny.

also - i want to take a knife to the throat of anyone that uses koyanasqatsi as visuals for a gig. so lame.

yeah 2 of them were my mates - but I completely missed it.

Is that koyanasqatsi a film in the vein of Baraka? Cos it was good, but if so, then yes- lame laziness for visuals. I have seen Baraka in clubs waaay more than anywhere else.

 

[SONYMEGADRIVE]

never seen baraka but they're similar jeah
showing koyanasquattsi without the music = totally pointless if you ask me

 

[ICUH8N]

Yeah they're similar, and both completely abused as visuals. In fact, I remember seeing Koyanisqaatsi for the first time when it was projected on a wall after hours in the Purty Loft in 1994.

*memories

 

[plug]

hmm.. yeah. saw it about 3 or 4 times as 'visuals' before I saw the original. much better.

incidentally, baraka was shot and directed by the cinematographer who shot koyaanisqatsi (ron frike)

both great movies. esp koyaanisqatsi..

cool. yeah, well he held my attention much better than Scrut Chemist did

wasnt he in dead can dance or something?

 

[plug]

don't think so. didn't he use some of their music in baraka though?
