like I was saying on another list, I'm very okay with skipping two $20 shows to go see Prodigy for $40.

Prodigy at Nation was probably the best show I've ever attended.

honestly prodigy for $35/$40 at 930 is pretty solid. any other group of that caliber would be charging $60+ at some amphitheater.

if you look at their website then you will see that there are almost no other us tour dates. there are 2 other stops listed....one in detroit on the 22'nd and one in chicago on the 23'rd. then the next weekend they are back in europe. i am assuming that a monday was the only date that worked for both parties on this limited tour.
of course the dc date isn't even posted on the website yet, so i might be mistaken. *shrug*

DJ Psymon
2009-03-26, 02:09 PM
Yeah, but being at 7 i think makes it more doable... means the show would be over by what, like 11... maybe this is a possibility...

well the tickets aren't on sale to the general pulic yet.
in fact the show isn't even announced on the site.
so if you can get some $$$ together soon then you will more then likely be fine. :)

the link is for the soft sale tickets.
soft sale is offered to the 9:30 club "loyal fans" that get email updates. nat just posted the link from there, on to here.

I got a lawn ticket. I know plenty of others that got lawn tickets too.
I'll prob be hanging with tim, april, and one of aprils friends. We will be getting drunk (aside from april) and causing a rukus on the lawn. I want to pregame out in the parking lot too.
Dylan and his girl will be there too. I think he said he had lawn tix too.
It will be fun. Especially harrassing others on the lawn by being drunk and attempting to mosh and crowd surf on the lawn. Oh yes....I will be that guy. Especially for Janes.
I'm with you on the moshing thing though...but I mean....it's merryweather....nissan is the same for me too....half the energy is taken out of there no matter where you are and at least it's not seats. seats and these types of concerts I refuse to do any more unless I absolutly have too...so basically lawn and the pit are about the same awsomeness level for me with a few exceptions.

2 - EDM events generally don't see a majority of ticket sales up front, odds are you'll be fine, if this even sells out, waiting till next week
3 - I bought my tickets for both this and the Fischerspooner shows last Friday... so I'll see you homos there..

I highly doubt it. Hasn't been in their current live sets. I think Warriors Dance is the new No Good
Also keep in mind last time they were at Nation, they didn't have a new album just out.
Expect the tracklist to look like the following (in no particular order):
Worlds On Fire
Invaders Must Die
Warriors Dance
Omen
Firestarter
Breathe
Vooodoo People
Smack My Bitch Up
and possibly: Thunder or Run with the Wolves

Jilted wasn't as complete as FOTL
To me, FOTL is a perfect album if you don't count track 10.
Jilted had Voodoo, Poison, No Good, etc. But how many times do you listen to One Love, Speedway, Narcotic Suite, etc? FOTL is all classics. Narayan, Mindfields, Funky Shit, ALL up there with the level of Smack imo. I still listen to the whole album while with Jilted, I only listen to the big tunes

haha I know Experience isn't Happy hardcore, I was just saying some people out there love happy hardcore, so to each their own.
I still LOVE "Out of Space", "Jericho", "Weather Experience", "Ruff in the Jungle". Dont get me wrong. Its just, they are more dance tracks while the stuff that started coming out on Jilted and Fat of the Land, transcended to a level that wasn't as disposable like most dance music. The later tracks were real songs that few edm tracks achieve, beyond just loops. hard to explain. Stylistically, Experience obviously appeals to you breakers more. But honestly, can you argue about the maturity of the songs from the first album to the later stuff?
BTW, I love breaks, just not the modern kind :) Prodigy is my fav group ever and they are never 4 to the floor

I can't even remember when the last time I listened to Experience or Jilted was.
From being able to listen to an album all the way through with very few track skipovers just doing day to day stuff, outside of a party I would say
1. Fat of the Land
2. Invaders Must Die
3. Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned
4. Doesn't matter to me...jilted or experience....
There are tracks on both jilted and experience that I love, but from a complete album standpoint I just don't feel like skipping over tracks all the time.

Good question. I got into Prodigy BEFORE they got huge in the US. I heard a bootleg promo on mp2 (yes right b4 mp3 came out) of Firestarter before it hit big in the UK. I kinda hated it at first but it sounded so different that something hooked me and I wanted to find out more. Back then I used to surf countless hours online to get dance music that I couldn't find in the US. I found and bought Jilted Generation online and it rocked my world. This was before I knew raves existed and it converted me from pop dance music (the only thing I had access to at the time), to underground edm for the first time. Blow me away. I then bought Experience and thoguht it was killer too but never the same level as Jilted. I could blast both albums in my dorm and my dormmates thought I was some kind of FREAK. Then the next year, Prodigy hit BIG in the US and the same people making fun of music were borrowing my cds. I went to Europe and Firestarter was on tv ALL the time and I started loving it. When I got Fat of the Land, I thought it was great but not better than Jilted. But over time, it became the most played album in the history of my life and eventually my fav album of all time.

Serious. The only two closeup shots of people in the crowd are one guy with a Deadmau5 shirt and another of a guy with a Deadmau5 hat. The rest are just pictures of just Deadmau5 and superwide shots of the crowd. Drew takes good pictures, but if you see the stuff he does he seems to never leave the stage at parties and mostly gets pictures of the performers and the VIP people. In my opinion if you are going to photograph a party, work the crowd to get a better perspective.

It could be he doesn't want to jeopardize his very high-end gear in the crowd (you know what that's like...) The other thing is that I believe some of the dj's actually hire him (he's quite popular with/known by the artists) so they might want a majority of the shots of themselves doing their live performance. It's a different genre of work than what we do I think which is mostly promoting the party and giving the patrons some memories of their time there....and then also of course capturing the artist.

Good point, if he is getting paid I can definitely understand sticking to the assignment. I would just think that stuff in that situation would be submitted to someone else for their own purposes rather than his own web site like we do.

i HATE when the 9:30 is sold out. there is seriously no room to breathe, let alone dance around.
i am praying that the fact that it is on a monday will prove to be a deterrent for some people.

I was in the pit at Ultra covering The Prodigy. Because there were so many photographers we were split in 2 groups. I was in group 2 and was slightly disappointed because I needed to get my material then move on because there's so much to cover so I didn't want to wait too long. The first group went out for song 1, the switch out of photographers happened during song 2, then we got to shoot song 3. We also had to sign a release to shoot The Prodigy specifically, and they were pretty strict about it. So I'm in the pit concentrating on covering fast moving objects with no flash (I swear I think these guys are moving targets on purpose just to tease with us! ; ) The photographers are bumping into each other but we can't help it because we're concentrating on the stage action. Well I eventually almost get knocked over from someone on my left (and have a very blurry shot to prove it!) and I looked over and it was Maxim Reality who had jumped into the pit with the assistance of security to greet and taunt some of the first row fans! (Glad I was in group 2 after all!)

It could be he doesn't want to jeopardize his very high-end gear in the crowd (you know what that's like...) The other thing is that I believe some of the dj's actually hire him (he's quite popular with/known by the artists) so they might want a majority of the shots of themselves doing their live performance. It's a different genre of work than what we do I think which is mostly promoting the party and giving the patrons some memories of their time there....and then also of course capturing the artist.
This. 99% of club photographers are there to take pics of the people and maybe 5 pics of the artist. If you go to most major club photo sites, it's impossible to tell what the event is looking at the gallery most of the time; you can name it "Tiesto and PvD Tag Team @ McDonalds" and nobody would know the difference from the random people shots. I skew highly towards the DJ edge.
Most DJs hire me for the DJ photography of themselves, and not the people in it such as this Deadmau5 tour, he hired me to take pics of him and behind-the-scenes stuff. Lots of the venues take a while to get a good shot from the stage, which is why i'm on it most of the time. I can't just hang out on stage either; I have to hide and pop out at the right moment too; otherwise I don't think people would be too happy if they came to see Deadmau5 and me just running around in front of him.
It all depends on what is going on, really. Like for back in LA, Giant Thursdays I am the only photographer so I do both DJ and people shots. Giant Saturdays, another promotions team is doing people shots, so I do mostly DJ shots and some hot girl shots here and there (lately just DJ shots due to some internal drama which will hopefully be resolved in April :)

two - EDM crowds are notorious for not buying tickets till the day of the show..

Heheh, you know us so well Ed and funny cause it's true. I think Deadmau5 didn't "sell out" either and I was thinking awww, that's too bad cause that would be cool for him to have a packed house....well, he definitely had that the day of the show! I think we all saw the pics....

And people who showed up without tickets for this were begging for them from anyone who had an extra outside....
That was an awesome night; so many old school Buzzheads came out for this....
