All he did was DJ. Near the end of his set he DJ'ed a white label of something that was his (or Cylob's) which hadn't been released at the time. Other than that, though, he didn't essay any of his own material or his RePHLeX posse. What he *did* DJ, however, was essentially "A Young Person's Guide To Acid House", starting with Mr. Fingers and on through "Spice" to (circa-1994) the present day. Personally I thought it was phenomenal, although obviously the people who hadn't seen Richard play live twice like me were a bit disappointed that he was manning the decks instead. - Greg
