have you ever seen Luke Fair live?

[hansh20]

i saw him last night, i got to the club with no great expectetions at all, but when he started to play i realized hes a really really talented guy. i thought he was a bit plain in the beggining cause the jerk who warmed him up finished at 32 o 33 bpm, so it was a little boring, but he started making his set out.

i have seen so many djs by now... big, mediocre and lousy ones, and this guy is one of the best if not the best guy ive ever seen live. his track selection is awesome, i just recognized two tracks from a 4 hour set, his mixing skills are awesome too, what else could i say from this guy.... if you have the chance to go and see him, you shouldnt miss him. i can add to this that im not a fan of what he played last night, but when someone plays like he did, even if its trance, psy ( ) or any other genre you realize he's the best on what he does.i cant asure if hes the best dj live right now, but what im sure is that he deserves a better place in the dj mag poll.

I saw him last year with Sasha in San Francisco at the Mezzanine. I didn't have much expectations, but he played 3 hours (Sasha 4) and they both rocked it. I was drunk though.

Re: have you ever seen Luke Fair live?

i saw him open for Sasha during his involver tour in nyc. He was solid that night, but the crowd didn't really care for him cuz he was fresh to the area and everyone was waiting for Sasha to get behind the decks.

Re: have you ever seen Luke Fair live?

I've seen him play in Toronto, Minneapolis and Chicago. In Toronto and Minneapolis he was warming up the night but in Chicago he was headlining for what I believe was Van M's b-day party and he stole the show. Sick mixing, incredible track selection, very nice person to talk to. I love the niche sound he has and the fact he's not playing the latest trend..

@ The Church in Denver, CO opening for Sasha. Crazy club, it was actually a church at one point. The stained glass and pues (used as benches) are still in the place.

Re: have you ever seen Luke Fair live?

I have seen Luke live 3 times (once in Cancun with Sasha and twice here in Toronto). The guy is extremely talented and never disappoints.

I recommend going to see him whenever he is in your area....he definately won't disappoint!

Re: have you ever seen Luke Fair live?

I saw him play last year at the bedrock party WMC 2004 with desyn masiello and he was outstanding...Just amazing really (one of the best shows i have seen) then i saw him this year at House of Bluse in orlando and that show was ok. not nearlly as good...but the vibe/venue/and other circumstances had alot to do with it.

regardless luke is one of the most talented djs out there...and his productions are stellar..I love all his work.

Re: have you ever seen Luke Fair live?

I saw him play to crowd of just twenty people a few months ago. More details...

He played a flawless set and since that day the only CD I've played in my car is Luke's Kiss 100 mix from this year and I haven't become sick of hearing it. Keep in mind I usually listen to my iPod in the car, the CD is only on for short trips...but still Luke is an awesome and often underrated DJ.

i think HOB is one of the worst venues to see a dj possible. the high celiing makes for a excrutiating echo upstairs to where you think every single beat is off, and the crowd is horrible. Last time i was waiting in line and i think i heard "who the hell is steve lawler" at least 5 times in the 10 minutes i was waiting in line/paying for tickets

i was at the bedrock party as well and it was quite a difference. i think it helps when djs get properly opened for as well as oppossed to some idiot who tried playing some dnb before lawler/miller. HOB = Amatuers. it will take a lot for me to return.

Re: have you ever seen Luke Fair live?

I saw him at bleu room in dirt_troit, still one of the best shows I've been to.... he destroyed the place. I had high expectations and he completely exceeded them.

Re: have you ever seen Luke Fair live?

saw him last year, march-ish i think. the turnout was disappointing, but he did a great job, played some great tracks. he actually was here last weekend too, and apparantly portland has caught on finally, because the club he was at this time was over capacity. i didnt make it to the show this time though...
