Heathered Pearls is one guy doing atmospheric/semi-classical stuff (who live, *spoiler alert*, had two women sitting on the stage in front of his electronic gear painting plastic roses and then each other's faces Kabuki style plus crocheting!). Beacon is 2 guys programming sounds with one offering New Orderish vocals. Beacon had entertaining visuals behind them as did Shigeto. Audience loved Shigeto (esp. some young women upfront). I started out liking him and then found his rhythms predictable after awhile. There's a 4th act on the D.C. bill tomorrow whose name I forget.

They had that lineup plus a few others including Adult when I was in SF and it was so-so until the last bit.

Weird. Thought "Oh, a Ghostly International t-shirt would make a great present!" but couldn't find one in the UK. That said, I've thought the same about Craven Faults.
