squarepusher. saturday april 25 (2 Viewers)

[mickalphabet]

so is everyone all hyper hyper about saturday? who's support? what will we wear? what will we drink??

i'm reasonably excited, allthough not excited enough to have bought my ticket yet.i will be wearing a pair of fenchurch jeans, a pair of fake adidas i got in marakesh and a t-shirt with a wu-tang clan reference on it i bought of the internet. i might go for tiger beer cuz i'm getting paid friday(also when i plan to buy my ticket), but will probably have a nip of wodka in a hip flask i got for crimbo thats been in my back pocket ever since, i'll be smoking the occasional roll up upstairs, particularly if he plays any boring ambient bits, or maybe just nip one in while i go for a piss save a journey. i'/m hoping not everybody i meet will be talking about 'the last time they saw him' or indeed the 'last time they saw me' which was probably when i was in a gully sometime

!ironyyy

I might go to this. 25 quid seems a bit steep tho.

Maybe I'll haggle at the door.

Haggle you say. Very interesting...

Anybody know what to expect here? I'd be excited if i expected and hour or two of completely insane 8-bit shredded drum-and-bass-guitar but i'm afraid its just going to be a four hour free form jazz odyssey. Anyone seen him lately? Whats he playing live?

 

[u:m]

he's playing and hour and a half 21.00 - 22.30
about a third of the set is live bass playing and drumming, the rest is full on rave madness. with the ticket price, its gotta be that price, the production costs are fucking huge cos of the giant LED screens, but its worth it.
check out this footage from 2 weeks ago, not great quality, but give some idea of what he's up to at the moment

Not bad at all - if they increased the bpm a bit more they'd be even better!

 

[La La]

will there be tickets on the door for this?

 

[broken arm]

am i the only person in the world that doesn't like squarepusher?

 

[theoootini]

to be honest i've never bought an album of his. i like the hits though. and he's deadly live...

 

[u:m]

will there be tickets on the door for this?

yes, but not many, Id pick one up in one of the shops or get down early if I were you

 

[Jasper]

I thought this was ropey enough. Started off well and the last few tracks were deadly but most of it did nothing for me at all. Good to see that some people didn't let the early start put them off getting completely mangled!!

 

[mickalphabet]

tiger beer cuz i'm getting paid friday(also when i plan to buy my ticket),

i'll be smoking the occasional roll up upstairs, particularly if he plays any boring ambient bits,

!ironyyy

tiger beer was warm, are they not turning on the fridges in there to save money?

didn't smoke once... wasn't any boring ambient bits

the youths in the place after. jaysus

 

[theoootini]

yeah i enjoyed this i must say. he seemed like he was enjoying himself too...

 

[Franco]

Proved value for money in the end.
