So Sphongletron is playing here in April, I have been listening to more of their stuff debating if I should go or not.
Some of their songs are definitely rad, some super creative ambient stuff.
The sad part is their is a dj opener and I hate dj's and now they have another band opening I am not a fan of.
I still am considering going and showing up late to miss the openers hopefully. Would you go in that situation?
The dj is phutureprimitive, and the band is medium troy.

Thanks, I realized after I changed it to this one that I think I remember seeing it from another persons sig.
But it is just a vague memory, so I can't remember if I actually saw it on here before. If it was it was probably a couple years ago when I first joined.
Something about that gif just gives me dejavu, I think I have seen it somewhere before. I wish I could remember who on here had it

I am not surprised, sphongletron seems pretty damn bad ass.
Also, dj's always act like tools onstage IME 
I saw one awhile back, I forget who he opened for, anyways he looked like he was cumming his pants every 5 minutes on stage

It was hilarious, such bad music though.
I would walk to the front of the stage just to laugh at the DJ then go back outside and wait for his set to end 
Yeah openers are rarely fun, Phutureprimative definitely does not look like my cup O tea either. Sphongle is not quite either, but still cool enough I want to see em.
I love me some nice synth work.
Bassfreak, it is Sphongletron, not just a sphongle dj set. So it will be Simon djing with live musicians, way cooler than just a psytrance duo or whatever.

I agree that there's a culture of djs acting foolish anymore. I hate Jesus pose & heart hands. It's absurd the way a lot of them act, I prefer the eyes down business.
Phutureprimitive is the better act IMO.
Bassfreak, if you come down to Philly in two Fridays, I'll go to the noremixes label showcase with you. Starkey is doing a live PA. Very rare for him.

You could be right, it is vague on the listing.
It does not specifically say on the description of the concert besides:
"Simon Posford Presents: SHPONGLE Shpongletron 3.1"
and I was pretty sure I read sphongletron was the live band set.

I've seen shpongletron before, a few years ago. I don't think the tour now is the whole shpongletron, it's just shpongle. Maybe I'm wrong though 
Everybody loves to smoke copious amounts of dmt at shpongle's shows, if you're into that...
& Phutureprimitive is awesome too.
I'll be seeing him in Oregon

Dewd the only time I ever saw him was like few weeks ago or whatever. It was shit. Everyone in the crowd was jus standing there talking to each other saying things like this is shit. My boy said he likes futureprimative and try to get some shit going and then he gave up n admitted it was infact shit.

Yeah you are right bassfreak, still looks pretty interesting.
I doubt I will be up for how ever much they are charging just to go see two dj sets and a mediocre band though 
It is almost like false advertising because the concert is Sphongle presents Sphongletron, so you would think it is the Sphongletron set.
But I guess the stage setup is one of the main "sphongle" elements, are the full band sets called "the sphongletron experience" or something like that?

shpongletron isnt like a special set dude
shpngletron is literally just the stage set up and its changed slightly thru the years. its just a trippy looking stage set up
a shpongletron "set" isnt like a "thing". its just a stage. its not a special set. in fact until this tour apparently, its literally been simon pressing play and NOT DOING SHIT except smokin cigs and chillin
the shpongle band sets is simply called "Live Shpongle"
just go dude. itll be fun. and dont miss phuture

you literally just said u only saw him play 2 tracks lol
and he was an opener. and openers are often told to tone it down and their restricted on what kinda music theyre allowed to play. sometimes the volume is turned down too

It's kinda fucked when they do that with the volume. When I saw rustie over the summer I was real concerned about the sound because through the opening djs, I could just talk to people and we could hear each other fine. But it was full volume by the time rustie played.
Guess it didnt matter because the openers were so terrible, but it really made me worry about the main event.
