I went up to Seattle for this, and much to my dissapointment no Aphex Twin to be found! Just a bunch of lame psuedo-alternative corporate "alternative" bands. What a waste of $25. The next night was scheduled to be in Portland Oregon, so I bought a ticket from a scalper (the show was sold out). Aphex Twin did show for this. My advice is for those going to the concert is to get their early, and even if you don't see the aphex twin chances are he is there (he was kneeling in front of a pair of turntables behind a huge stack of speakers on the side of the stage, just listen for the freaky wacked out music). I got a chance to meet him and he said that he lost 2 flight cases of records so he was pretty pissed off about that, and the reason he did not make Seattle was due to a flight fuck up. It is too bad they don't give him more time to dj, he was only spinning for about I hour, but then again how often do you get to see the aphex twin dj?
