i did not go, but i read with glee the following paragraph in a review written by j. sullivan from the boston globe: "...truncating the sinuous flow as the DJs spun uptempo, filler rave tracks. Strangely, there was a predictability and remoteness to it all that seemed to run counter to the intended free-your-mind ethos." the promotional flyer reeked of predictability (read: same old shit from the tired boston club scene) tp

I'm sorry but if you determine the quality of a show by what's printed in a the press then you don't deserve to see a show by the Orb! THE MEDIA SUCKS! You should've seen the show and made a decision for yourself. I weep when followers of the underground music scene use a commercial means to choose what's "good" entertainment... Granted the Orb are about as commercial as techno gets but I'll NEVER believe what the media feeds me. I'll find out for myself DAMNIT!!! -robert ______________________________________________*AudioElectronic*_____ Sampling the 808 is like shooting an animal sonic explorers \ and hanging its stuffed head \ in your livingroom! - (mw) __\

I didn't determine the quality of a show by what was printed in a the press. I determined the quality of the show by judging the trashy flyer. I read the review with glee the next day. Am I being clear? I spent my 'orb' night watching Stanley Jordan play piano on his guitar. Is that underground enough? Teep on now: mr walker - wes montgomery
