HARD NYE 2009

[Distorted_Jungle]

Chromeo W/ Peanut Butter Wolf, Vega & Gaslamp Killer for $50>>> A Trak, Boys Noize, DJ Medhi, & Destructo for $50

Take Chromeo out of there and it's still a better deal, Chromeo is cool on CD but the live performance is not too entertaining.

I have never seen them live but from youtubes (not a good measure I know) they seem like they would entertain me. I'm in too that autotune funky shit just for a good time. Like a piano g funk cover of "California Love" would make my night. I know their DJ sets are god awful but I think a live performance would be ill. And make up for HARD Summer.

[ELECtROjan]

ive actually heard that their DJsets are a lot better then their live shows....then again that isnt saying much

[Mr. Dylanja]

I haven't actually seen music at a HARD event, I haven't seen Boys Noize and I haven't seen A-Trak. I have been to the Palladium and I thought it was great. FUCK YOU ALL, this sounds awesome!

[Devin the Dude]

you won't be disappointed, dylanja. if any event, Boys Noize is gonna tear it up on new years. he spins the hardest, nastiest shit all fuckin day. and A-Trak is gonna slay the 2-4am. just trust me, if you're in LA, this shit is the BEST option. enjoy! :]

[Mr. Dylanja]

Thanks Devy, I was getting tired of people hatin' just because they're not going.

[WhyTheLongFace]

Thanks Devy, I was getting tired of people hatin' just because they're not going.

lol I'm not hating. You will have fun. A-Trak will kill. Boys Noize will hopefully be better than he was @ HARD 13. I loved his 1st album and his 2nd album has some gems spread in there. Dont know much about DJ Medhi but hope he's good.

I just cant listen to many electronic artists for longer than an hour (Basement Jaxx exception)

[crazzz2007]

Thanks Devy, I was getting tired of people hatin' just because they're not going.

what a ridiculous post. we're not going, because it sucks.

how do you turn that into "they're hating just b/c they're not going"?

[Mr. Dylanja]

Because they're talking about all the "superior" events they're attending in this thread instead of the their respective threads.

[Devin the Dude]

heh.. guilty.

but yeah, i was all for this and still am if for some reason frisco doesn't work out for my New Year's. but, i don't blame all the haters - some homies just don't dig Boys Noize or A-Trak. they're two of my favorites, though, so i was stoked to see them on a New Year's lineup. so yeah, conclusion is, if you like Boys Noize, A-Trak, and DJ Mehdi (Destructo is irrelevant), you're gonna have a great time and should go, and if you don't, well you're screwed in LA. hah.

[Dr. Lufs-al-ot]

and A-Trak is gonna slay the 2-4am.

what makes you think that?

My guess is that it would be going:

Mehdi 9-11
Boys Noize 11-1
A Track 1-3
Destructo 3-4

It makes most sense being that they would want to put BN and A-T at "prime time" which owuld be between 11 and 3

[Devin the Dude]

oh yeah, you're right. i just wasn't thinking. hah.

[Mr. Dylanja]

You guys think this will sell out and if so how soon?

[Devin the Dude]

it'll sell out a few weeks before.

[CalmerThanYou]

you won't be disappointed, dylanja. if any event, Boys Noize is gonna tear it up on new years. he spins the hardest, nastiest shit all fuckin day. and A-Trak is gonna slay the 2-4am. just trust me, if you're in LA, this shit is the BEST option. enjoy! :]

Boys Noize is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. My balls still hurt from Saturday.

ATrak will rip.

[stinkbutt]

NYE shows the headliner usually starts right after the ball drops, he'll most likely go on at 12

[Devin the Dude]

iunno.. i think he'll have the countdown.

[stinkbutt]

Every NYE show I've been to the headliner comes on stage counts down then starts paying right after the balloons or confetti or whatever drops from the ceiling

[eskamo951]

I haven't actually seen music at a HARD event, I haven't seen Boys Noize and I haven't seen A-Trak. I have been to the Palladium and I thought it was great. FUCK YOU ALL, this sounds awesome!

I saw 15 min of Crystal Castles at Hard Summer, and haven't been to the Palladium, but otherwise, same thing.

[mattpach]

Thats even worse than Dylan's experience.

The Palladium is awesome.



I think I'm going to do this instead of TAO (If anything).

[eskamo951]

Yeah, I'm debating this or Sea of Dreams...but I don't know if I want to deal with the expenses associated with going to SF and staying through the weekend (I don't travel that far for a single night)

[Devin the Dude]

good. fuck TAO. people need to stop supporting that crap.

[WhyTheLongFace]

it'll sell out the day before.

fixed

YOU ARE CORRECT

[Mr. Dylanja]

Pretty sure I was sitting right next to you, Travis, I don't consider Crystal Castles music.

[eskamo951]

Yes, yes you were. I consider it music, but with Alice Glass screaming obnoxiously over it...really, I'm all for the CD versions of their music. If Alice can come to her senses and realize what it is she needs to do to fix her "singing" then they may survive the in music industry.

[CalmerThanYou]

They fucking suck balls. Them and Chromeo. Fuck THEM.

[stinkbutt]

She screams on the album as well it's just they crank her vocals up way too high live. I remember seeing them before they got really big and they were good cuz it was at a punk venue where they knew how to mix those type of vocals good with the music

[Mr. Dylanja]

Damn Kolby, a MONTH straight of shows on Saturday? Talk about WIN!

[Devin the Dude]

they were so much better when she broke her back and couldn't play live for a month. Crystal Castles DJ Set FTW.
