^ Hernan opened for him in '08 ? Amazing.. I would've been there at 930 lol
I got to go to 3 vagabond parties '12, '13, and this last one. The one in 2012 was more vortexy and probably not as good, but more like the one from 2008/9 ones, he also played until 6:30 or so
He also played this, which was very nice
but the general feel of the set was more like
The 2013 party was also very good, but not as good as 2012.. at least for me. The set sounded a bit like the Slovenia CDs.. at least from what I remember anyway
peak time

He also played Blue Monday which was awesome

This year's party tops both ... it really was special.. one of those nights where all the elements come together and you just forget about all else.
I don't know how else to put it, but it felt like the artist in him came out more that night than any other one I've seen so far. He didn't play just for us, but for himself as well.. I think that this is how he really likes to play, bringing back a bit of disco, going trough progressive and some modern techno.. kind of like experimenting and blending the different types of music he likes.
The set had a very warm feel to it.. if I had to put live in Slovenia and this on a scale, they would end up on the opposite ends. Just Incredible music overall!
I am really happy that he is releasing it.. in a way I will be able to musically revisit that memory anytime I want : )
