I haven't seen an LA audience dance so much in my life! The whole place was bouncin'! People were manic! It was crazy ass fun! When we walked out of The Henry Fonda, you could feel the humidity emanating from the place.

'Twas the last night of their tour -- both bands gave it their all and we gave it right back. Seriously, a damn good time was had tonight.

Tonight was just a small preparation of the mad dancin' I'll be doing at Jeff Mills vs Richie Hawtin on Friday night! Whoop...whoop!!

I saw the presets at the horribly titled "Be the Riottt!" musical festival two Saturdays ago...and I gotta say, honestly I was really disappointed. They just seemed bland and boring to me.

I saw hot chip this past Friday though, and I have never seen people in SF so excited. The whole place was bouncing the entire time. The last half of their set lagged a bit IMO, but apparently no one else shared that viewpoint! Twas a lot of fun.

Whoa...a fancypants sighting!!

Sorry you found Presets and Hot Chip lacking...two bands I thoroughly endorse for getting your ass bounced around!

I didn't really make my post clear...I really liked hot chip, but not impressed with the presets. Just thought hot chip started to drag. But of course they played that "over and over" song and I thought, "how could I stay mad at you."

Yeah, I know, sorry. No I didn't get married. I was going through some personal stuff and kinda went MIA for a while, but things are great now! Look forward to rekindling our friendship, cuz you're awesome and I like you.
