This was a fucking great show, I've seen him twice before in NYC and as one of my favorites he can never do wrong in my eyes. A quote I read detailed him saying “I’ve started thinking about pure electronic music again. Something very melodic, very aggressive” and that was evident with his new material - as always he was melodic, abstract, thumping, glitchy, bassy, and pounding. I do have to say that it gets a bit "whatever" just looking at a dude standing behind a laptop. I came across another site where a guy to the left of the stage (I was on the right) posted that he was eating during the set. Couldv'e just been playing a cd but it was rad.
I met him backstage years ago (an exgirlfriend knew the opening act Kenny Muhammad the Human Orchestra) and when it was time to meet Jenkinson after hanging out I had to piss SO BADLY that I only had time to shake his hand and ask him where the bathroom was. By the time I returned from an epic beer drinking piss that seemed to take a half hour he was gone and the opening act dude was trying to get my gf's number - not how I pictured the whole thing turning out at all.
