I've heard some great things about DJ Spooky, but had never heard him spin until DEMF. I have to say that his was the most bland and forgettable (imo) show I saw down there and I saw the bulk of them. Most of it was old stuff done without flair or a sense of flow. Later I was talking with a well known Detroit DJ and he agreed (as did another DEMF performer with whom I spoke the next day), so it wasn't simply me. I'd have been more interested in hearing his old "death trip" stuff than the washed out material he played - and apparently it wasn't just me. My friend Ed and I walked away (lloking for better fare, which was easily found there) scratching our heads and figuring it was either all hype or Spooky lost whatever he had which gave him a good rep. Maybe it was an off day? Doesn't sound like it according to what you said. jeff Andrew Duke wrote:
