This will be the third time I have seen him, first with Scion in 1998, and then with Farben and Burnt Friedman in 2000. Should I bother? I guess I just don't know.

unless tikiman makes a suprise appearance, and then I will jump up and down and ask for Rhythm & Sound and Burial Mix tracks.

Mike's right, the rapper is really lame, but I did like the instrumental tracks on his new LP. I'm not yet sure should I buy it. How are Pole's gigs usually like? Does he try to play live, or does he sit by his laptop?

so pole is playing in orlando, fl tonight and the show is being promoted as his only US appearance - where was he playing last night? and yeah, does he sit at his laptop/have his rapper or not? does he play older stuff like "raum" or is it all the new stuff? someone with details please enlighten me to the live pole experience.

i saw him last week in los angeles and he had his laptop, a mixer, a synth, a melodica, and no vocalist. i enjoyed it immensely.

He was in Detroit last night, I was too lazy to leave the house.

Mike, where did he play in Detroit? I didn't even hear about that show. Oh well, I've seen him twice already (once at the detroit contemporary with B. Friedman, and at this year's Movement festival). I don't think you missed anything great.

He played Downtown at 1515 Broadway. The only reason I knew about it is because I am on Sharif's mailing list and I got an E-flier in my mailbox the day of the event.

he's playing dublin soon,i'm debating whether to bother or not
if i have a job by then i probably will go...

― robin (robin), Saturday, 4 October 2003 22:49 (twenty-three years ago)

if they have a good soundsystem in dublin, go! there is nothing to see but sonically it is great and there are no crap rappers on this tour.
