PVD in San Fran NYE Review


Recommended Posts

Just got back from San Francisco for New Year's where we were lucky enough to see PVD spin. The party was at 1015, the big club in San Fran, promoted by Spundae. The space was actually really cool...5 different rooms, spinning diff. music and a pretty solid sound system. The best part about the place, however, is their dj booth. In the main room, you can walk right up to it (it's not elevated) and there is no glass or anything. You can literally stand 2 feet from the dj which is a pretty sweet way to witness PVD.

B/f paul came out, Adam Freeland and Jerry Bonham spun. Freeland was ok...not really into breakbeat and wanted to conserve my energy. Bonham rocked. He opened for paul once at twilo and is the spundae resident. He started out a little slow but really turned it up towards the end of his 3 hr set. Paul came out just b/f 4 (he played new years in LA) and I was able to position myself right in front of the booth. He played a really solid set (I'm really bad w/ track names so I won't even attempt to ID most of the songs). It was really incredible to watch him do his thing that close up (I miss the old booth at Twilo). I didn't realize how much of the sound he actually creates w/ the mixer. Unfortunately, paul looked really worn out (i guess playing two venues w/in an hour of each other will do that) and stopped playing just after 6 (2 1/2 hr set). The place was staying open to 8 and he was supposed to go until then. I was still totally pumped to see him on new years and can't wait to Feb. when he returns from a month in the studio to Twilo.

If you are ever in san fran def. check out 1015 (esp. on spundae night when bonham spins).

Yeah, PVD was wicked! Completely SICK! I loved seeing him in L.A. this NYE. But he started late here as well: 11:00p-1:00a. frown.gif All I can say is; "I WANTED MORE!!" cwm45.gif

I can't wait to see him again, dunno when that will be. confused.gif
