when I heard it was Mark Rebillet, I thought "oh cool". Then as he started his set it hit me.... Mark takes a while to get his loops and effective groove going. Thus, giving the guy 4 minutes (or whatever snippet they gave him) was not really a good thing for him. For Mark's full Coachella set (50 mins) that I saw in person.... try this. https://youtu.be/xUkeB99Sy_c?si=Irgry52I8UA48SCP On Tue, Feb 13, 2024 at 2:59 AM 'David Bruggeman' via TVorNotTV < [email protected]> wrote: > A side note, Tomlinson has a special debuting on Netflix tomorrow.
