I saw Plaid the other night when they were in town at the Abbey Pub and I must say it was a damn fine show. They had played earlier in the day in Millennium Park, but I had decided to just make the trip for their evening show. I don't know if any other members had made it or not, but out of the 4 or 5 Plaid shows I had gone too, this was probably my favorite. They mostly played new material, with the exception of 1 or 2 songs, but all of the songs were definitely on the dancey side. The sound system was great, so it was an awesome compliment. I don't have a track list, but the tracks I did recognize were Rat's Step, Miamivice, new Balil remix, and Doe remix. I don't know if it's a new song for release or just some tinkering done live, but they used the main hook from that last couple minutes of their remix of Grandmaster Flash's Scorpio and made it into a whole new song, so that was a blast to hear. The biggest surprise was, that Plaid actually played a straight-up hypnotic Trance-esque tune. It was great, people on the floor were lovin it, and it just goes on to show that Plaid can dabble in any genre of Electronic Music and make a great song. Going to have to miss the Autechre show with Graham Massey since I decided to take the day off of work for Plaid instead. But yeah, great night, great turnout, and great sound system. |

Here are some videos on youtube from the show. The sound quality is bad - just forewarning and nay, they aren't my videos. |

Nope scratch that, the end of the 4th one is the beginning of the 3rd link, my fault. |

thanks for the impressions, and mild thanks, too, for linking the videos although it's impossible to make stuff out from them |

That Scorpio remix was on Parts in the Post. I was going to go to the Millenium Park show, but found out about that reservation business too late and had something to do that night. |
