Marc's Public Blog - Clubbing and Trance

Of course, it's difficult not to compare this show compared to the show he did 18 months ago, and I'll be honest, it was pretty similar. I was disappointed that the show was only 1.5h instead of the 2H I expected and thinking that it ended at midnight, but it was over at 23:30 sharp. Then I went to check my records from the last show and found out it was also 1h30 only and the only show that was 2H was the original Laserface at Bill Graham in 2018 which remains the best one ever that has never been topped.
Laser-wise, from my imperfect memory, the to SJ LSR/City shows were pretty simliar. The music changed of course, and I liked both, even if I loved "Bring out the lasers" dubstep mix that was in last time. Still, it had all the classics and a variety of genres, it felt like a good selection. Gareth did play some keyboards live, and Annabel got more stage with more singing that she did beautifully.

The big plus this time around was that Annabel was properly lit on stage and it was much easier to see her perform which was a great bonus:

thanks to my real camera, was able to get a few shots from the very back

However, the big plus from this time around at least for us in San Jose, was that Gareth did the show twice, and that was great news because it allowed us to see the show from the rear on the first night, and front row center the 2nd night, and that was definitely a very different experience (both worth doing):

Day 1

like all insomniac shows now, thank you for the free water

Two of our local DJs played from 20:00 to 22:00:

Yeah Shane!

And Garath did 22:00 to 23:30:

one addition was the storyboard, nice

Most of the show from the rear:

Day 2

different vantage point for sure, worth seeing too

Gareth was playing live

Gareth seemed to have a good time :)

Thank you Gareth, Annabel, and all the tech guys who do the laser magic, for the great show!
