It will be an honor to have this man back with us for his 1st Columns appearance since 'Da Shining" in 1998. 'Nuff said!
Q-BERT (Thud Rumble, San Francisco, CA) 1:00-2:00AM
1st New England appearance in over a yr!Q-bert has attracted attention since 1985 when audiences realized his skills on the turntables were beyond comprehension. Through years of creating, practice, and dedication, he developed the art of using the turntable as a musical instrument by inventing styles and creating unique systems of
skratching. History established that Qbert, formerly a member of the legendary Invisibl Skratch Piklz (ISP), heralded a new era in the
DJ/turntablist community, and helped raise the art to its new form.After claiming the titles of the Disco Mixing Club (DMC) 1991 USA Champion
and the 1992-1994 DMC World Champion, he was asked by the DMC founders to judge the 1995 DMC Championships instead of competing. In June 1998, Q-bert received the DMC DJ Hall of Fame award for outstanding contributions to the competition and the industry. Q-bert has been featured in numerous local and national publications including Details, XXL, Spin, Jazziz, Urb, and the Bay Area Magazine (BAM), as well as international magazines and newspapers. His
album "Wave Twisters" captured audiences worldwide. This album delivers Qbert's solo improvisations, along with songs created through breaking all types of instruments into intricate symbols. Consider by many to be the top turntablist in the world, we are pleased to present this unstoppable force in the industry!
FEELGOOD (www.djfeelgood.com, Balitmore) 3:00-4:00AM
Special makeup set for his abscence due to weather at Happy Holidays!Cd Release Party for "Djmixed.com/dj_feelgood" on Moonshine
Feelgood's ability to drop kick-ass House music conveniently allows him to crossover between the lines of raves and with clubs with ease and it is this talent that has enables him to consistently rake in the praise and admiration from fans and fellow Djs. His last big appearance for us @ "Meant To Be" showed him to be one of the best performers on the night. In addition for his
hectic touring schedule, Feelgood has expanded into production and remixing, including six new tracks for his own label, Charm City Records. "Can You Feel It?" his first release on Moonshine and a subsequent remix for Cirrus
showcase his party-time, funky house. His latest mix cd on the djmixed.com series further proves why your hands should be in the air the minute this man takes control of the dance floor and your soul.
FREAKY FLOW & MC FLIPSIDE (Moonshine,Modrobes, djfreakyflow.com, mcflipside.com Toronto, Canada) 12:00-1:00AM
Toronto's jungle scratchmaster will be gracing his 1st Columns event since the last outing of freshness @ Fresh Start! He was possibly the most well reviewed artist of the evening so it's only appropriate that he come back to us again for the next round! With a current album deal at Moonshine, a touring schedule that's taken him all over North America, Japan, and even
Hong Kong, this well respected artist is gonna turn the main room into basswave of positive energy you can ride on all night. Cutting edge track selection and an energetic style help make Flow rock the crowd every time! Flip's MCing is on point as well. His radio show "Trippin" let's his voice be known to 600,000 people a week, so it's no wonder the man knows how to work a crowd. His most known work to date would appear on "Obscene Underground Vol 1" which has moved over 20,000 copies since its release. Get ready to scream rewind!
MIKE MYERS (Local 13, 611 Rec. PA) 11:00-12:00AM
Philly's #1 trance dj comes to NE for a rare appearance this evening. This guy also rocked the crowd @ Fresh Start. A New Beginning was an intimate chance for him to kick the crowd in gear as well. Playing all over the country now to an exponentially growing fanbass, Mike spends his time contributing his efforts at 611 while busily working in the studio on his first release hopefully to be out by the end of 2002. His contribution to the 4X Harder series has pushed him into new markets and it would appear nothing
is gonna stop Mike from reaching his goals! Now shut up and dance!

In 1997 we began a tradition. "Fresh" was a raw underground event with a diverse lineup, an old skool skate park venue, and an all out night of insane energy. In 1998 we continued that tradtion with "Refresh". Held at the legendary now defunct Sting nightclub, this events was our biggest to date and showcased a plethora of well
distinguished locals and some jaw-dropping
sets from Feelgood, Terry Mullen, and more. In 2000 we united with Soup Prod to bring you "Fresh Start" at the now legendary and notorious Bradley Hotel. We were honored with Soup to present such NE 1st as Freaky Flow, Cajmere, and a special live PA by Nostrum alongside many other great artists. Now in 2002 the tradition continues. Fresh vibe represents the red hot energy of a crowd going wild to amazing music. The people + the lights, the lasers, the love, and the funk behind the Fresh events have been what makes them memorable and enjoyable. For those of you who have been a Fresh event we invite you to come join us for the next chapter. For those newer adventurers we want to take your hand and guide you into our play of words on the catch phrase which represents the fun funk-filled vibe of SO FRESH & SO CLEAN. Peace, Columns family '02!

you this is gonna be a fuckin ill party fer real.freaky flow is breathtaking live.i cant believe hes gonna be at asylum.i am gonna fuckin rock the dance floor this party!
 
Freaky Flow w/ MC Flipside?!?!?! Hmmm.... oh yeah there is NO way I am missing this party. Holy shit I am loving this lineup!
PEACE.
~~~Katie
 
Wow, the Asylum is actually getting some damn good line-ups now. So many good parties so little to choose from.
 
where there is flow, there is maui. i will definatley be here.
 
wow, lineup is def unbelievable, money is tight so i might have to sell my body for sex for this one, anyone up uconn way need a ride, email me, don't mind drivin at all
 
i'm gonna go to this party, but i gotta say, i kinda disagree with putting q-bert in the mainroom at a peak time. i know it makes fiscal sense, but most of his music isn't really danceable. i'm sure he'll put on an amazing show nonetheless. besides that the lineup looks good. i finally checked out a live set of freaky flow's online, i was pretty impressed. it will be good to hear something other than dark/futuristic dnb on a big system. boh
 
i'm bumpin this to the top. why you say? for the very simple and obvious reason that it's a fuckin ill party and needs to be bumped to the top. thank you, good day.
kristin
 
yes that does deserve a bump......that and i bump parties weekly if i'm promoting for them. :)
-upstate NY promoter for Columns Of Knowledge
 
^^
What's the point of bumping a post an hour after it's just been bumped?
And what's the point of this post other than me being an ass? =P
 
that's what we love you for dave. that and...well no, that's about it.
you know i'm jokin ;P props to mistah toprockah himself.
kristin
 
This party sound so hot...I'll be driving up from Long Island with some friends
 
^^
Same here. But my hiatus is longer than yours, it's been since Happy Holidays for me.
So do I win anything?
(Note: I don't define bodily harm from Jamal as "winning" anything.)
 
Dave does that mean your not gonna be goin to Dayville on the 2nd??? Whats a Millenium party without TopCocka...not the same right??
Anyways, MMMMMMMHHMMMMMM Frizzity Freaky Flow. FUCKIN AWESOME. First time I saw him was at scream 3 and seeing as that party sucked he made it all worth the while to go. Can't wait.
Where's my lighta crew at??????
 
I am really debating on making this party my last one. I am thinking that this will be my last party unless andy c is booked at another party. then i would make an exception. i dunno yet, haven't totally decided. who cares anyway.
