Doesn't look like they're archiving shows online (yet), I'll try and find out more from their Twitter a/c...

Neil S, Wednesday, 8 June 2011 12:04 (twelve years ago) link

Domino confirm they'll be archiving all the shows soon!

Whoo Philly in Sept! I always have the most fun on the dancefoor when you guys are spinning. Are there any other US dates in July/Aug? I'm traveling x-country and would love to double up on fun

Great fun in NY sunday night of labor day weekend. Actually glad they showed up late and we stuck around. Had they showed up as planned we probably would've left after an hour or two because we're lame, but the flight had them start at 2:30, and after staying that long we weren't going to miss the end. Don't know if it was the existence of Horse Meat Disco (who I saw the day before at ps1) in house, but Optimo got VERY menergetic.

dan selzer, Wednesday, 14 September 2011 20:58 (twelve years ago) link

bummed I missed it. I was fired up to go to the Sunday daytime thing but after it got wiped out by the hurricane I couldn't do the late-night makeup date.

dmr, Wednesday, 14 September 2011 21:56 (twelve years ago) link

what's the deal with this

looks like the equivalent of an edits 12 but with OGs not edits?

Crackle Box, Thursday, 15 September 2011 11:59 (twelve years ago) link

Don't know if it was the existence of Horse Meat Disco

Last weekend in Glasgow with Horse Meat Disco was so good, easily the most fun I've had dancing in a long time.

boxedjoy, Tuesday, 6 March 2012 00:08 (twelve years ago) link

ach i was there too. it would have been nice to say hello. next time!

Loving the mix.

So there's the return, of sorts, to regularity in Glasgow this Friday. Hard not to not be pleased about it!

Playing at Trouw in Amsterdam on the Saturday, which'll be a bit easier to reach for me. Where's the Glasgow return at - Sub Club, or a different/new venue? Might have to make a pilgrimage before I have to return to Australasia, hmmn.

etc, Friday, 6 April 2012 15:01 (twelve years ago) link

killed it at corsica studios last night (what a surprise)
