    John Digweed @ Ruby Skye (June 16, 2012)

    It's been over a week since he was in San Francisco at Ruby Skye but last week was the Apple Developer Conference so I was a little tied up and couldn't get the video together. Digweed was fantastic during his peaks - classic gnawing stuff that made you want to explode on the dancefloor. His non-peak stuff was a bit on the boring side to be honest - he played more than a few Maxime Dangles tracks that are interesting to hear but a bit boring on the dancefloor. His peak time chaos though made up for it. Such a great night of intense music! Here's some video I took - I could definitely use some new school trainspotter help:

          Sounds like a great time man, thanks for sharing! How long did he play for ?

          I knew I should have stayed in town for that instead of going to Vegas for the silly edc. He doesn't even come in the bay area that often.. maybe once a year

              He played until a little after 4am. Yeah, once a year these days in SF...it really is my only big night each year.

                  BTW, his set in Vegas seemed a bit out of place between UMEK and Carl Cox, but he brought in his usual fashion, the ambulance line during his set resembled a limo valet pickup the masses just cant handle the vortex.

                  Sven Vath was amazing...he played a god damn killer set...ended up going to that and came to at like 10 am in some whore house in south Amsterdam...no idea how I ended up there...friday was a bit of a blur got really drunk and visited several parties can't remember a whole lot to be honest hehe...saturday was probably the best day that I recall...started up in the nearest coffee shop and going from party to party...beautiful woman, beer and weed...finished the night by taking some shrooms and listening to an amazing elke kleijn set...sunday...i met a nice girl who worked at one of the coffee shops and ended up talking to her for like 6 hours...was supposed to meet her at some DnB party...but instead went for a steak and walked around red light district bars drinking and smoking...monday took it easy went to a coffee shop and took a taxi to airport....

                  All in all...I think I will be going back there some time soon

                  So white-middle class Americans have been told by their Television sets to be fearful of:

                  1. Mexicans/Latinos from the South bringing drugs and killings n' shit.
                  2. African Americans cause mos def they are raging a race war and want to occupy America like how the plebs occupied Wall St.
                  3. Iranians/Afghans/Any one of middle eastern origin to be quite frank, cause you know Islam...
                  4. North Koreans/Chinese cause you know everything...

                  Am I close here?

                      Any trainspotters for some of the peak time music in the video?

                          How long do you think his set was.. it felt like a 45 minute set to me, which doesn't make any sense for a Digweed set.

                              Still a far cry from the Twilo sets I used to hear in New York circa 2000/2001. Some of those were 12 hours!
