Basement Jaxx have always been amazing.  We couldn't make it,  unfortunately. 
 
 
What I disagree with (and please don't take this personally, Doron my  
friend) is comparing the Jaxx to Howard Stern of the radio.   In my opinion, Stern 
is one of the most utterly complete morons ever.   While he can at times be 
quite amusing, most of the times, his shit is not funny  at all, especially when 
he seriously advocates, to millions of listeners  that the US should nuke a 
few places in the world.  He can kiss my  ass.
 
Basement Jaxx elevated electronic music to new heights.  Howard Stern  
ushered in all that is crass, irresponsible and digusting about talk radio  
today....not quite the same.
 
my 2 cents

Well...you really should have. 

I'm probably in the minority on  this list when I say this, but the Jaxx to 
me are like what Howard Stern  is to radio hosts, or what that little 
Japanese guy who wins the Nathan's  hot dog eating contest every single year 
without fail is to competitive  eating. They're just EONS and EONS AHEAD of 
the comeptition. I know of no  other house producers who can compare to the 
Jaxx' innovation and more  importantly, ability to generate 100% pure 
unadulterated JOY. 

It  was really, really incredible to see the ENTIRE Hollywood Bowl pulsating  
up and down in unison to some of the funkiest, most physically engaging  
music I've ever heard. Besides their hits, there were crazy mashups, and  
sick vocalists, and by the end, there was an entire samba school of drums  
and dancers, a horn section, a drummer, another percussionist, guitar, and  8 
freaks dressed in ape suits making for the biggest onstage party I've  ever 
seen in my life. 

Sick, sick, sick  shit.
