I've also played on a UREI back in '03 and the experience was fantastic. Its one of the few times I raved about the mixer afterward. I'm use to playing on mixer that was once nice but its better days have long since past.
The funny thing about that event was that Carl Craig was running late, so ppl kept assuming I was him, asking for pictures and what not. I had to explain about a dozen times that I was just another black dj from a depressed industrial town, with a better football team of course.
