Yep, exactly my point. Standing in a sea of humanity right in front of the
stage, there's definitely a temperature gradient involved. Laz and I were
right in front of the tower stage front, and the sea of people giving off
heat combined with the extreme stillness of the air made it quite pleasant.

Hehe (-: (To answer the original questioner, I'm originally from the Boston
area, but in 20 years of L.A. living my blood hasn't thinned out yet. Also,
I have some extra insulation courtesy of, erm, Body By Michelin (-: )
ObIDM: Organic by bits review part 3: Underworld. Great duo, shame about the
useless 3rd appendage. The poor 3rd guy doesn't seem to know what to do; as
he serves no real purpose. If I wanted vocals, etc. ... Guitars? I couldn't
hear his, and I don't want to hear guitars. The rest of the time he spent
trying to pretend he's Bez from Happy Mondays/Black Grape or something.
But the music the other two guys were making was interesting. Sometimes I
found it a bit boring (too much samey stuff; same tempos, rhythms, etc.), and
other times it was quite good ... and they had excellent visuals to match.
Probably the only band during whose set I felt like I really wish I had tried
harder to find small letters of the end of the alphabet ... although Orbital
was excellent as well, but that's part 4 ...
