Infected Mushroom

**thewoodenman** · 05-16-2010, 02:53 PM

Did anyone else find their set sick to the thousandth degree??!!

**rasooli** · 05-16-2010, 03:05 PM

No, I thought they fucking sucked. Second worst act of the weekend behind Die Antwrood.

You must have missed Proxy if you thought Infected Mushroom were 'sick'

**woogie846** · 05-16-2010, 04:16 PM

I walked by on my way to the food court and it sounded awful.

i saw them to get good positioning for Orbital. i wish i hadn't.

**BROKENDOLL** · 05-16-2010, 07:48 PM

I know they've been around awhile, but I had never listened to them until that weekend. I'll even go so far as to say I put them in my Top 5 for the weekend.

**flowbee** · 05-16-2010, 08:56 PM

Yes I was only there the second half of the set because of Orbital coming on next but I found it to be entertaining.

Im in the same boat. Orbital was incredible, but IM was really bad.

I'm happy to report that my mushroom is no longer infected.

OMG! LOL, I really should have gotten some sleep last night becasue I'm laughing far beyond what I should be right now! And, sigged, of course!

I saw these guys in Houston a few months before the festival. I thought they were very cheesey. The only good part of the show was at the end when some fat kid with a mohawk hooked me. Needless to say, I stayed away from IM at Coachella.

An Infected Mushroom DJ set would have been a much better option. The live band sucks.

**amyzzz** · 06-08-2010, 08:37 AM

They were good but a bit too intense and too fast for how much acid I was on.

Jacob enjoyed them.

**thewoodenman** · 06-08-2010, 08:53 AM

i highly enjoyed the level of energy they were providing

**chairmenmeow47** · 06-08-2010, 09:22 AM

one of the most disappointing sets of the weekend. i really should have seen them in 2004. i've hyped up seeing them live for so long and it's not even really my type of music. i also expected more from the stage set-up.

**myvelouria94** · 06-08-2010, 09:34 AM

I feel like if you've seen them once you never really need to see them again. The first time I saw them was at club spin in san diego, smaller venue and an awesome show, tons of energy. Have seen them 3 times since then at festivals and each time was progressively worse, I didn't even stick around each other time.

i do highly agree with this fact though...inflatable mushrooms? they probably make a TON of money, and they seemed like they cheaped out. i didn't really get that.. but the music made up for it. i never got to see them before and have listened to them foreeever

**citizenerased** · 06-08-2010, 11:46 AM

First time seeing them, pretty much what I expected. That loud crunching sound, lasers... it was okay, guess it could've been better as people who've seen them before have said.

**thewoodenman** · 06-08-2010, 11:50 AM

wondering if i should give them another go at edc?

Nah. Try to see them at one of their upcoming gigs that isn't a festival... I know they're playing the Music Box in July, 4th and B in San Diego in August.

**amyzzz** · 06-08-2010, 04:35 PM

I say give em a go at EDC! I like them in festival settings.

**betao** · 06-08-2010, 10:28 PM

They're fun live, but do get boring after 20 minutes. It's literally the same exactly buildups dropping into the exact same 4/4 beat at the same tempo over and over and over again.

It's fun music to pogo to for a bit, but then move onto something else.

**thewoodenman** · 06-10-2010, 09:55 AM

you guys get all the good shows, i'm here in az so seeing them again is probably going to be far between. i think i will just check them out until the play i wish or viscious delicious, then if set times come out anything like they're listed on the EDC site i can catch a little Jack Beats.

**juloxx** · 06-12-2010, 11:19 AM

Whatever, the mosh pit was pretty cracking. Their Coachella set fersure was nothing special, I have seen them kill it wayyyyy harder on different occasions (and play wayyy worse).

They were pretty lazy with their lighting effects and stage set-up. I like the inflatable mushrooms but that was about it. Their visuals sucked and lights werent too good. I had fun though, no doubt
