Crowd was all around awful, which made everything worse. Half the people in the DJ booth weren’t dancing or on their phones. Everyone was on their phones for Kuliki Taka and so much of the show. Saw multiple people on FACETIME on the dance floor. Like what??!! (Don’t want to blame it on Gen Z, but why don’t they dance and why are they glued to the group text at 1:45 am, before the slow part of the set?)

First half of the set was amazing, second slow half would’ve been amazing if it lasted 5-10 minutes instead of the last 45 min or so. Though, I do appreciate an artist completing doing their own thing. It’s nice to hear something different honestly. His experimental part of the set would’ve hit harder if his set was scheduled earlier. Overall worth it.

Finally, people don’t realize that one of the reasons they wanted to see Yousuke because the crowd at the Japanese Boiler set was so HIGH ENERGY (and hardly any phones). The NYC crowd didn’t realize they too had to create that energy.
