so, about that Amon Tobin tour...

Anyone else check this out yet? I saw this in Chicago last night- it was pretty spectacular.
and by pretty spectacular I mean "filled me with childlike wonder and glee".
totally recommend it if you like shiny things and it's passing through your neck of the woods.

trilo beat me to it...

some of the same guys who worked on the video mapping for the shpongletron too. Incredible stage, lighting, everything.

no acid required for face meltage.

Nah, there's another date. New Year's Eve in SF, the big Anon Salon/Sunset Productions/An-Ten-Nae shindig known as Sea Of Dreams.

Seeing him on Wednesday in Brooklyn, very excited. He's always great live, but the new visual setup is insane.

Dunno, NessaZee, I think Brendan's booked out of town for NYE.

Sorry JS, we're all kinds of close to the venue (walking distance), but no couch space. If you're considering coming to SF for it, you may also want to look up the Space Cowboys' "Breakfast Of Champions" as a chaser (NY day party).

This totally reminds me of the NIN show I went to in Portland. This set. The visuals where out of this world!
Should have stayed at center camp!

That's about where my ladyfriend was. Through a mixup, I ended up with three different tickets to that show, none of them floor.
