I missed C&S last time they were up here but I heard the night was packed, so yeah maybe they have more mainstream reach than most artists. Not sure if i'd go as far as comparing them to pendulum though...
Sub focus was playing here recently and I really didnt enjoy his set, all the tunes sounded the same (really synthy) and I dont think it helped that he was rewinding nearly every tune (couldnt stay in the room longer than 15 minutes at a time). There was no flow at all, never kept it rolling through a few tunes. He was just mixing breakdown into breakdown then rewinding etc. I couldnt dance to it and thats what I was there to do.
I know artists tour and travel to promote their own tunes, fair play, but they should remember that we want entertaining while they're doing it...
