Im from the St. Louis area and im headin to Chicago for this event at The Mid. Never been before and some friends and I decided to make a weekend of it. Anyone been there before?

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

I wouldn't bother he's only playing for 3 hours [img]http://smileyicons.net/s/529.gif[/img]

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

I never get to see any good Djs in STL and plus i've never been to Chicago and thats much cheaper than my trips to LA... Although last time was the best, was at the avalon and Digweed played for like 7 or 8 hours.

Plus when djs like sasha come to st. Louis they only get 3 hour sets

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

The Mid just opened up recently from what I heard, but it sounds like a decent place and they are bring in quality DJ's so might be worth coming up for the weekend.

Let me know if you do end up going and maybe we'll meet up.

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

Digweed will be there in march as well

Save your money he's only playing for 3 hours

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

[QUOTE=chunky;925370]Save your money he's only playing for 3 hours[/QUOTE]

its better than the 0 hours he is playing in Boston

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

when and where?

Apparently not, apparently it takes Digweed more than 3 hours to get in his stride [IMG]http://smileyicons.net/s/532.gif[/IMG]

[QUOTE=Huggie Smiles;925422]when and where?[/QUOTE]

march 23rd at the Mid

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

Hell yeah! Tickets just went up over the weekend: [URL]http://www.clubtix.com/sasha-at-the-mid-chicago-tickets-33985[/URL] [URL]http://www.clubtix.com/john-digweed-at-the-mid-tickets-33888[/URL]

I went to The Mid for JFK about a month ago. It's a pretty standard Chicago club. Not any worse or better than the others, in my opinion. Though, it's outside of the downtown area, so parking is better.

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

Chunky... How do you know his set is only 3 hours? His face book event says 4...

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

[url="http://mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=728"]Wahi[/url] is opening for Digweed. [url="http://mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=728"]Wahi[/url]'s sets are definitely worth it, and to top it off with Digweed imploding your brain for a bit after that - even his 3 hours is worth it.

It was a joke after Steve made this ludicrous stament

[QUOTE=Steve Graham;910424]you bring in a heavy hitter like Digweed or [URL="http://mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=5"]Sasha[/URL] who clearly only begin reach their stride after 3 or so hours, you don't need more than 1 warm up dj :)[/QUOTE]

Followd by me saying this

[QUOTE] If any DJ takes more than 3 hours to get in their stride they may as well give up. Especially when like [URL="http://mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=5"]Sasha[/URL] or Digweed they have access to so many unreleased or exclusive tracks. If it takes 3 hours something is seriously wrong. This is not good work, If this is an example of world-class DJ-ing they may as well let the residents play all night! and plenty of them. [/QUOTE]

Followed by Steve getting annoyed and not wanting to extrapolate on his ludicrous statement :)

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

Nice :-)

Its coming up soon... Should be fun

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

Looking forward to both shows! :)

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

Sasha killed it! The warm up tracks he played were to die for... Im just so happy right now, was the [url="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=5"]Sasha[/url] i came to hear, and nice to hear it strait out on the CDjs.

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

So come on then someone must have been there. Did he take more than 3 hours to get in his stride?

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

I like it so much I'm changing my signature

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

Gee Chunky, it's not like you to say the same thing over and over and over and over and over.

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

I didn't make it to this gig but would be interested to know if it took him 3 hours to get into his stride?

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

:lol:

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

His set was 2 hours 10 minutes

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

does it take bobjuice 3 hours to get into his strides? ;)

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

I am thinking about going to go see Diggers in a couple weeks up there but only a 2 hour set will suck.

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

[QUOTE=dyreschlock;936646]His set was 2 hours 10 minutes[/QUOTE]

Well thats that night "NSFW"

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

So where did Steve go? I suppose he's busy looking after that football team he thinks he owns

[QUOTE=Jenks;936615]Gee Chunky, it's not like you to say the same thing over and over and over and over and over.[/QUOTE]

lol, two both of them!

i totally should have spent the 36 hour car ride & 875 US bucks it would have cost for me to get to this 2 hour event. SERIOUSLY that was not sarcasm.

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

36 Hour car ride? You're from Pittsburg Kansas, right? Google says that's a mere 10 1/2 hour trip, and they are super conservative with their estimates.

How would this cost $875?

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

[QUOTE=dyreschlock;937638] How would this cost $875?[/QUOTE]

Because he will need some crystal meth for the trip. You can get half way round the world for $875.

Re: Anyone from Chicago seeing Sasha on March 12th?

btw. I have $15 flat pre-sale tickets available if anyone would like to meet up around Chicago for them. Looking forward to seeing many of you on the floor!
