Saw Tricky last night at Hollywood Athletic Club. Here is a semi quick review. . . If anyone ever has a chance to see a good techno/idm/electronic show there DO NOT HESITATE as it is prolly one of the best setup places around. The room is the size of a small basketball court with a small balcony that runs all the way around the room. There is a good sized dance floor and full bar (always a plus). The stage is large and set up on one side of the room (which means you can be on the balcony directly over the band if your lucky (and friends with security dont hurt either). The sound system in this little room is incredible. Nice and clear sound. As far as the show is concerned, Tricky was amazing as usual. The crowd left a little something to be desired. All the a**holes who live in the state of CA must have showed up there. Some guy almost beat the hell out of my roomate cuz she (yes he wanted to beat up a woman) asked him to move over so the girl behind him could see. . I cant believe what the scene has turned into around here. A bunch of rave/skater kids (i looked like one of the oldest guy in the room and im only 23) causing problems for the rest of us who just wanted to see a good show. I was right up against the stage and otherwise the show was very good. The sound guys were pretty shitty though. Little too much feedback on the mic's and if you were stuck in the back of the room then it prolly sounded like just a loud hum (but that is why you stand in the front). Anyhow, im still rather angry about the quality of people that attend the shows around here. That guy made me really angry, as did the lame ass frat boy who pushed me cuz he didnt like the way I was dressed. I guess it makes him feel like a big man or something. . . . ok back to my sulking. . . NP - something to take away my anger - They Might Be Giants 'John Henry' TinOmen Tyranny4You@earthlink.net http://www.thefaktory.com ". . .And they all died in a horrible fiery death, mangled steel, blood, ear piercing screams...all to the technoized beat put forth by a TR-909" -TinOmen-

I've almost *only* heard that he puts on a sucky show. And when *I* saw him 1 1/2 yrs ago he blew. I've told the story here already, but suffice to say he was stoned out of his gourd and forgot what he was doing for most of his breif show. Actually, recently I've been hearing good reviews. Has he gotten better live? Anyone care? Then you said things like:

Um... it pretty much sounds like the show sucked and you had a thoroughly lousy time! You rave about how good the place is and how good the show was, but then you drop the giant boulder of salt which is your litany of awful things which happened at that show. If I had the same experiences as you I would definately forever hate not only the venue but Tricky himself! -Chris Fahey
