As ozymandias G knows, I was exaggerating about the Aeron chairs
for effect :)

There were actually other non-Expansion parties at other than
Organic office spaces, but I didn't want to confuse the stories
too much.

Yes, that was DJ Vitamin B (Brian Behlendorf, actually) you see
briefly in the background in one scene of Groove playing the
chill room -- just as he does at a lot of our parties -- using
part of the Cloud Factory sound system that many of us have
played on over the years.

The Expansion parties were pretty all-encompassing.  So much so
that we wore everyone out.  I played one of them at 6 am in the
chill area, with the morning light streaming in through the
skylights, spinning LTJ Bukem and other "atmospheric" jungle
to three people asleep on a couch :)

As for the Chems, we saw them at the Henry Kaiser auditorium
in Oakland a few years ago, with the Orb opening.  The Orb were
great, and the Chems were boring.  When they played "Setting
Sun," their big hit of the moment, the crowd *rushed the stage*
and we gave up and left.

But mileage will vary on the Chems, as almost anything...
