Holy Crap!

This was a seriously amazing weekend. First Derek Plaslaiko on Friday and then "The Dig" on Saturday. Derek Plaslaiko was absolutely amazing. I also drank a .375 of Jack Daniels while pregaming at a friends house so forgive me if the description of his set is vague but seriously, the man threw down some serious techno. The best part was, he kept pushing the limits of just how weird and esoteric the beats could get before bringing it back to something banging and catchy to put everyone on the dance floor again. Saturday was a little more low-key for me. I didn't stay long at "The Dig" but I will say the following things:

1. The venue is actually really cool. It was my first time there but the set-up is perfect. The big, open upstairs is a great contrast to the cozier downstairs and lends itself nicely to having house/techno upstairs and DnB in the basement.

2. I spent most of my time downstairs and I really only had the pleasure of hearing Illeffect and Ray Casil. Ray stepped in when Locks couldn't make it and pulled off a fantastic set. Illeffect didn't disappoint either, there was plenty of head bobbing going on.

3. I was way too hung over from the poor decisions I made the night before and after I found out the people I was going to meet there bailed I decided that my couch and pizza were calling my name.

Thanks to the JQM and 88 crews for making it an eventful weekend. I definitely can't wait for the next one.
