Paul Oakendfold Rocked it!!!!

Wow!!!!!!! He rocked it!!! There were 2 DJ's prior to Paul coming on who were good but Paul rocked it! The vibe was great! He interacted with the crowd! He started right at midnight and played until 2AM, no less! Needless to say, my husband and I danced the entire time!! The crowd was hyped, the sound system was great! It was an outsanding kick off to the July 4th weekend.If you like dance/electronic/techno- you'll love this show! By the way, someone else's review mentioned him coming on too late, my husband and I are both early birds also but we like his music so much-there was hardly a compromise- it was worth every minute!!! Oak-en-fold..Oak-en-fold [chanting...]

The opening DJ was incredibly good and super fun. Oakenfold waited WAY too long to come on and then spun for about an hour and a half- he was so bad no one wad even there at the end!

Zen trainwrecked almost every transition...it was pathetic. No light show...I expected more from a children's school presentation of christmas. Paul was good...it's what he is known for...although no real light show here either...do they need more money to put on a real show or what?

Kickin beats from start to finish! Honestly we left after 3:30 and he was still going! The show was a leftover - overflow demand from a previous show is what we were told. The Ogden was an unbelievable venue and he made them have to repaint the place! We danced until I had blisters and I can still FEEL the music. Everytime I hear a car thumping by or a song with good beats - I flash back to POk now, it's crazy!
Indoors is way different than out. I am a big fan! I and mine plan to attend any Oakenfold show we can get tickets for!

Always good with bad... Zen didn't show up - so it was pretty lame until POk started. The staff at the Ogden is the BEST! Every single person I interacted with was way cool and respectful. Sometimes you don't get that even when paying the big bucks! Thanks to POk and Ogden (and TMaster) for making it a night we will NEVER forget!

I loved Zen Freeman, I thought he really put on a good show. Then Paul came out and he def killed it! I've read a lot bout people saying he hides out by going to the back of stage, or doesn't play like he used to blah blah, but that was so not the case. He really communicated with the crowd and the energy was unfathomable. I had a really good time.

I really like Paul's music & have never been to one of his shows. I thought the opener was good but played way too long! I know tech shows start later than usual but by the time Paul came out to play it was 12-12:30. So as a result i didnt feel satisfied with the amount of time he played. Good sound quality, and great people at the show. Overall i had a great time but wouldnt recomend buying tix for this show again because of the lack of play time. Peace!

Doors opened at 8 pm, show was supposed to start at 9 pm. There was no music until almost 10:30 pm. When we asked what was going on, they said they were waiting for more people to show up. In my opinion, people aren't going to enter a silent venue to stand around and wait, especially when you are not allowed to leave and re-enter. Play the music and they will come!!!
The opening act was great, he mixed some great music and I was impressed. However, Mr. Oakenfold did not come on stage until almost 12:30 am. He didn't play any of the songs he is known for or that most people are familiar with. He stood around and only did a little mixing.
All in all, I was very disappointed with the concert. If Mr. Oakenfold wants a bigger crowd, he should have picked a different venue!!!!!!!!!!

This was one of the most dissappointing shows I have ever been to. Zen Freedman was a pretty decent DJ but he was on for over 2 hours! When Oakenfold took the stage , everyone was pretty much tired of waiting for him - which he didn't until about 12:30AM. Last call was at 1:30. Oakey was only on for 1 hour! Considering he has so much music to pull from - it wasn't long enough. It was a waste of $50.

Ticketmaster - I hope you post this for all of Oakensfold's and your fans to see.

Paul Oakenfold did an amazing set and it was absolutely phenomenal to watch him spin. He knew how to read the crowd and he gave them what they wanted and kept the energy high. He did not disappoint from beginning to end.

Zen Freeman was less than pleasurable to watch. During his set he train wrecked the beat about 9 times, lost the beat completely around 4 times and could not read the crowd to save his life. He had his sound levels set very badly to the point where the highs were so loud it was actually painful to listen to him play.

Oakenfold didn't take the stage until after midnight. Much of the audience was either gone or their energy was already spent on Freeman's spins. Of course, Oakenfold was great, but it would have been truly INCREDIBLE had he started 2 hours earlier! Also the visuals were not up to Perfecto par.

Opening act(s): Zen Freeman was good and spun several songs I knew. I like techno/electronica but admit I've fallen a little out of touch with the current songs so I was excited when I did recognize some of them. @

This was the second time I've seen Paul Oakenfold. He is truly a master of his craft. From the time Zen Freeman started until the rave ended 4 hours later it was non-stop energy, fun, and dancing (hence a rave!). I highly recommend going to see Paul if you get the opportunity, you won't regret it!

Ridiculous coming on at midnight. Many people left before he even got there. His audience is aging with him and doesn't care to wait till midnight for someone from back in the day.

If I had realized this was a 16+ event, I would never had gone! WAY too many kids running around (especially girls in teeny outfits) not hot at all - very annoying.

Also, Zen Freeman played for THREE hours and by the time Oakenfold came on, everyone was getting bored.

I expected to be taken on a ride at an event like this, the supreme DJ, Mr rave himself, did nothing of the sort. 180 bpm with no journey, no start, no middle, no lows, and especially no climax. Paul Oakenfold spent more time talking to people at the back of the stage than he did addressing the crowd. By the 2 hour I had had enough as did most of the crowd. When I left, the place was less than 1/4 full. Big disappointment.

I can not believe how awful he was. It was like he didn't care about his fans at all. Not once did he even acknowledge the fans. He literally walked up on the stage, pressed play, and walked away. He would only come up to his turntables in front of the crowd to switch songs, otherwise he was standing in the back, mostly out of view, talking with people on the stage or flipping through is book of CDs. Luckily the opener DJ Kenneth Thomas was totally rad and knew how to work a crowd. I wish he would have come back and kick Oakenfold out.

Please return to the Firestone every 4 months like you talked about at the end of the show. Mr. Oakenfold plays a intense, high energetic performance that one must bring their dancing shoes to. The music never stops.
