#

I'll tell you what though it was fucking hard to find 😂

#

I was doing fat loops for a minute doesn't help that these venues have really good sound proofing

#

I'll say though the only DJ set that was good was Nord ost imo they had a really good dynamic duo going on that was fun. If you ever get a chance to see them it's worth it
