Booking #89: Direct Drive @ Tonic, NYC

Always an honor playing for Direct Drive, one of the best and longest running parties in the US. I had an opening set tonight at Tonic, my first night playing this venue, but i do own the Medeski, Martin and Wood CD 'Live at Tonic', so it was cool to be on that stage. This was the first time Direct Drive has had DNB there, and the setup was difficult. It took the sound guy my entire set to setup the monitor and get the levels properly set, which made it hard to play. Still had fun. Crowd really enjoyed Michael Jackson - Human Nature (Makoto RMX), always a pleaser.
