DJ Spooky was amazing for the first few songs.  The
ambient sounds of an upright bass, 2 djs spinning, a
kick ass drummer and synths was brilliant. 

I'm not really familiar with DJ Spooky's music, but
when the "rapper" came out and started getting the
crowd "going", we left in a hurry.  Well actually we
prayed he would leave but that wasn't happening
another four songs in.

BTW I have to agree the band before Spooky wasn't
what I'm into at all.  But I brought my wife and she
really dug them so now I got to buy some stuff from
them.:(
