I know many of the attendees were diggin' the special Curiosa posters printed up for the event, but at the time didn't want to take them time so as not to get them all grungy. We'll try to get them in everyone hands at future shows, etc. Even if I have to carry them around in my DJ bag for the next couple of months.
As far as what I was DJing, it was a bit of Radio Kosmo, De Novo Dahl, Mood Elevator, Myracle Brah, Wire Train, Your Pal, Dogs Die In Hot Cars, with Moev, B-Movie, and Figures on a Beach. Did anyone catch the Delgados track?

i took a video during "time is running out" with my digital camera.. you can't see too much except lots of lights flashing but the sound is great, if anyone wants to see/hear..
right-click, save is probably easiest:

My turn for the praise: Thanks a ton to Seth and Kosmo for getting this together, and for the Staph for making it a great time. 9:32 is an awesome edition to Merriweather, and the sound and new (since the last time I've been) video monitors were outstanding. It was great to see those of you I did see.
Thankfully, I made it just in time to see Mogwai (the biggest draw for me), and the Rapture, both of which were outstanding. Can't wait for more gatherings like this one.

Kosmo,
Wanted to add my own personal thanks for setting this whole thing up! Definitely the best time I ever had at a Cure concert, even better than the time I was in the front row. Good to meet a few people from the board. Hope to see some of you all come to the Blue Room on of these Sundays. You played a great set by the way. Maybe you'd guest DJ with us at the Blue Room some Sunday.

I've had conversations with their manager before, spoiled by the fact that she outright lied to me about why they weren't playing DC on their last trip through. We could bombard her with e-mails about them playing DC.

I was very much there. Thank you Kosmo! it was lovely seeing you all again. The Cure were fantastic of course. Unfortunately we came a bit latish and missed Mogwai, who we very much wanted to see, and came at the end of the Rapture, who we were also a bit interested in. I don't know why people don't like Rapture, they're so fun and dancy. Horrible recorded, but oh so fun live. It's all worth it to watch the dude rock out on the cowbell. We did see Interpol. It was just fun walking around looking at all the crazy people, though. Lots of hotties as well. But I guess I would have had fun no matter how shitty it was, considering. But man oh man was the traffic HORRIBLE coming home…blegh!

I found quite possibly the best "alternative" kilt design yet… also available in ladies sizes

This guy (Chris, drummer for
The Fenains has quite the collection of kilts. I've seen him wear Zebra stripes, straw, and this lovely green sequin number, which the picture doesn't do much justice:
