  i made it out to see richie hawtin last night.  that was my first time
seeing him spin.  it was pretty fucking dope.  especially when he was
using the 909.  some of those beats were just plain amazing.  if i was
going to categorize the majority of the tracks played-- to me it kinda
sounded similar to what oliver ho is doing at the moment.  real
tribal-esq. 

   heres the part where i felt kinda stupid:  they open the main room at
11. i walk in there and heres this bald, sorta skinny, wearing glasses
(not thick rimmed black ones, but glasses none the less) white dude which
i assumed was richie hawtin.  "hmm, i guess hes gained a little weight
since i last saw a picture of him, different glasses too.."  so for the
first two hours or so im thinking this is richie hawtin spinning.  then
around 1 the real richie hawtin shows up.  as soon as i saw him i could
tell he was actually richie hawtin--looked just like every picture ive
ever seen... anyway  both guys are dressed alike--black shirt, lite
colored pants... bald heads...  i felt pretty stupid.   did anyone else
figure this out?  or am i the only one who was gullible enough...?
