Okey, that sucks, I allway bring earplugs and I also had to where them
in the venue where I saw him, but still.
Apart from that I really disagree... I saw him in the melkweg,
netherlands, a little while ago and he was really awesome. He played
many tracks of his own and stuff like "do you know squarepusher". Apart
from just mixing the tracks he mashed them up here and there using
loops, fx and I dunno what else. All in all very nice dancable tracks,
in a great blend of different styles (drum+bass to squarepusher to fast
eletroisch beats to his own weird stuff).
I also saw him on a Ninja Tune night about a year ago, and that was even
more amazing, him mixing techno with his older albums, arabic stuff,
drum and bass, mixing at 1/3 etc etc, really very nice.
Maybe he had a bad night?

Yeah, that's stanton final scratch... and true, it's just mixing, but
where I went it wasn't advertised as ``LIVE'' or anything, just A.T.
