OPENING NIGHT Soiree~!!

Opening Night was a riot!

For those who made it out - BANGMAN did the honors of playing the first live set at The Hive - and sucked us all in. Try this on for multi-tasking: playing drums, keyboards,

using effects AND syncing it with visuals? There was plenty of gushing going on after a hushed crowd ate up the sounds of his self-coined style "groovin' batteria". If you missed out, never fear! Ripley Radadoom will be back to grace the stage in the near future.

The night only kept on jumpin' with some of Seouls' favorite DJs to hit the decks:
OilCan Boyd laying down his signature old school hip hop and funk set, followed by two veterans to DJing: Mr.Fudge & Russtafari.


The ode to Michael Jackson was just what the crowd ordered and not a single bum wasn't shaking to pay respects to the recently passed. Well done fellas! ;)


The incredibly talented: Melissa Kelman, showed us exactly how mesmerizing her fire fans could be and did a belly dance number as well.


Closing out the night was Hive resident 'sound guy': Marko Nation: happy to pick up the pace and feed us some funk in the house format.

For those who stayed to the very end - J-Path played to the dnb devout who skanked their way out the door in the wee hours.

Success!

How does it get any better?
