So a) are any Atlanta area Prongers going?
b) has anyone seen his set?
c) if so, is it worthy a $15 cover charge?
wow, this came out of nowhere. just looked everything up. i may go if i don’t not need to leave town for the weekend. but, $15 is kind of high for a DJ set. i may go - can’t make a promises though. it’s in a weird location - Buckhead.
I might make it out for this one, but I’ll have to see how the rest of the week goes. It is weird that it is in Buckhead, but hell I haven’t been out in ages so what do I know.
Key’s DJ sets are him playing Download/Plateau/Puppy stuff from his laptop with a lot of extra gizmos to fuck it up. I think he even brings a couple of synths along so it is more like a live solo performance than just standard DJ spinning.
The Shelter isn’t really in Buckhead the way you’re thinking it is.
I’m still on the fence about the show.
I saw the loaded set with him, DVOA, Otto von Schirach and co. last week for 20 bucks and it was well worth it, plus last year I saw cEvin’s DJ solo set for about 15 as well.
Both were worth it, and there’s a few new Download tracks he’s incorporating too.
Otto von Schirach
That guy is nuts.
I have his Bass Low 12" and it’s strictly a record I throw on when I’m very drunk.

Agreed, Otto has songs that are…erm…great, but I rarely want to hear them, this one was always my fave…but in small doses…

He is great live though and seems like a cool fellow. Though he did wind up in some kind of bar room brawl the last time I saw him in LA.

Were you at the show in the basement of Das Bunker? Sound guy (Frank, not a small person) cut Otto short and they started yelling at eachother…Frank chases him out from the sound booth, can’t get to Otto, so decides to try and pull these giant stacks off the stage. Some giant bouncers had to jump on his back to restrain him from destroying the stage. Crazy shit in such a small space.

Aye, that was the one. I remember them shutting down Otto’s set early and Frank started dj’ing again and then Otto went berserk. I do remember him toppling one of those speakers and a pretty full melee as he was hurled out the side door. I’ve always wondered what went wrong though, everyone at the show was totally into Otto. Why would Frank have cut the set short? I feel like they pulled the plug in the middle of a song or something too.
With that said though, Frank is a genuinely awesome guy and I have a hard time imagining him being a dick to anyone.
So if Slack and Chem go I probably will.
If not, I probably won’t. I’m just not feeling the club thing anymore.

It is looking like I am not going to make this one rev, although I would like to. I’ve seen cEvin around 7 or 8 times so I guess I can miss it. We’ll have to hook up though when a good show comes through.
I totally understand about not feeling the club thing. I think the last time I went to a goth/industrial night was the closing night of The Chamber, and that was like 5 or 6 years ago.
rev, i’m going to be lame and also report i’m not going to make it. honestly tho… if i didn’t have things happening i would go to grab a beer with you guys. plus i’ve never seen kevin’s dj set and prob should.
Then it’s settled.
I’m staying at home and making my own damn music.
Chem, I was at The Chamber’s closing night, too. Of course, it’s been opened ever since with similar themes and different names…
