I almost cmpletely agree with inphlux, just a thing or 2 to add. DJ I-Sound, a clerk at Kim's, opened for Mike P. He was good, though the crowd wasn't into it. Mostly illbient style--some dub, noise, hiphop, and other stuff, distorted via scratching, etc. to make uneasy listening. I dug it, but I'm a Soundlab fan, so whatever, sue me. Around 3:50 Mike P came on. I only recognized the Mr. Angry version he played (I don't own much u-ziq), and yes, he did rip shit up. He played drill n'bass loud and assaultively like AFX did 3 nights ago, but he wasn't in a piss-taking/groove-killing mood. If you had felt really hyper, dancing definitely would have been possible, and I started head nodding happened without a conscious decision to. Mike p.'s silly melodies started to grate on me after a while, but near the end he pretty much drtopped them out and made his stuff rougher. Very good, very loud (that was me right in front of the speakers in the cargo shorts and b+w collared shirt). Sam
