[Dynagroove] Paul Johnson @ Balance - Last Saturday!

[Ricardo Torres]

Absolutely. Adam is one of the hardest working promoters in town right now. I
love the changes that I'm seeing in the LA House scene.   For example I love
that I get to see the Vinyltribe and Hawt out of the underground and playing
at places like King King and Afternoon Delight.  Change is good. You have a
choice and you make it what you want. I choose to see this as a positive. We
are all getting older and most of us don't want to deal with drama or bullshit
anymore.  But the thing I love the most is that LA House Scene 2.0 doesn't
exclude anyone.  This feeling where everyone is welcome is something I haven't
felt from our local scene in a while.  I have met more great and awesome
people in the last year that I have in the last 15 - and the only reason for
that is because we were all playing in different sandboxes as now they are
merging.

Can't wait for the next Afternoon Delight and especially the first Balance
performance of Mark Farina on the 25th of sept.  It's going to be Bananas and
to get a chance to open for him with Zack.... well it doesn't get better than
that.
