Thanks for the review Rachel, damn I wish I was there.<br>
<br>
Orb shows in the Bay are always the bomb, with some of the best crowds
I've ever seen at any show anywhere!&nbsp; For me Henry Kaiser in 97
was as good if not better than Maritime Hall. &nbsp;&nbsp; Have fun
(but not too much fun) in LA tonight kids!<br>

Hey Orbsters!<br><br>Whew! What a night. It certainly wasn't my favourite Orb show (which is<br>still Maritime Hall), but a good adventure nonetheless.&nbsp;&nbsp;I had a blast,<br>as did the entire packed venue.<br><br>So the setup was Felhmann djing some good old fashioned techno first,
<br>then LX came out and joined him live, and then LX finished solo with a<br>dj set.&nbsp;&nbsp;I think Andy covered more trainspotting details than I could,<br>but suffice to say the whole live set was very &quot;Cool Harboury&quot;. Mind
<br>you, there were some very old school orb moments - subversive samples,<br>teases of songs that never arose, and atmospheric interludes that kept<br>you guessing where you would wind up. And I thought the video was<br>
superb.<br><br>I was a little bummed that most of my old faves weren't included,<br>except for those that got a pretty house treatment. (Outlands springs<br>to mind.) Overall, it was a very techno/house show, with very few
<br>dub/ambient moments, which I found myself missing towards the end.<br><br>I really enjoyed LX's dj set after - he threw on some great stuff like<br>the original source for the Blue Room song (Is that Ariwa Sound system?
<br>I'm working from memory here.) and ended with the Toxygene/Eminem mix,<br>which was a fun way to cap the night. He really seemed to be having a<br>fantastic time - dancing, jumping, grinning from ear to ear. The dj<br>
portion really felt a lot like you were hanging out in his house,<br>listening to his favourite records with him.<br><br>About that time the crowd thinned out a bit, and I finally ran into a<br>few familiar faces (Hi Andy! Hi Harken!), but I was also surprised and
<br>the number of folks I never encountered (Sorry Clint, my cell died so I<br>was out of communications. Seofon, were you there?).<br><br>I'm sad that I won't make it down to LA tonight - send a good report<br>back, kidz!&nbsp;&nbsp;I think its going to be an incredible event! Regardless of
<br>whether the music is exactly what you hoped for, it was still<br>definitely the Orb, and so nice to see a packed venue of random folks<br>throwin it down and smiling from ear to ear.<br><br>=)<br>rachel<br><br><br>_______________________________________________
