Just to back up my point about SF. We're LUCKY to have these guys here in a WHOLE YEAR! In London you get all this in TWO WEEKS plus more I'm sure. I don't even think Richie Hawtin has ever even played in SF.

i'm certainly not trying to start a my-city-is-better-than-your-city war, but as far as english artists coming to america as of late, SF has been getting more than it's share. also, keep in mind that i moved here 10 months ago from *pittsburgh* ;D mikebee
