of the sets he played in Sydney over the past year or so none seem to have gone quite right for me. Which is really frustrating because I love the Mayday Mix CD. Sound problems at the one last year in particular made that set a bit off but I had an enjoyable night nonetheless. I was really looking forward to his set a couple of weeks ago at the Metro where there's a nice PA, but last minute stress with some friends of mine before getting there meant that I had a bit of a bummer and left early. Which is a pity because the tunes he played were pretty cool (no way back!) and apparently he did a bit of a meet and greet afterwards... <sigh> btw do any Melbourne list-members know of any interesting events there next weekend? (except for the What Is Music? festival that is, which I'll catch in Sydney the week after) Anything worth missing the Scratch Perverts in Sydney for? Chris
