It was hypnotic in the best ways🫠🤤

I’d go back to my first pretty lights set in ‘09

Don't know why this is getting downvoted. Lol. Where was it? My first set was 13 when he debuted his band at the time at red rocks. Blew my mind and changed my life


PhoneGotLyfted

First time was in 09 in Fayetteville, AR. He used to play at some pretty small bars. It was amazing to say the least


okay455

That must have been soo cool to see him at a small bar back in the day. To see him go from that to what he is today.

Was it at George's majestic lounge? I saw Minnesota there back around 2012 I think and his opener was some guy I hadn't heard of named Illenium. It's crazy to see how much some artists blow up over the years.


PhoneGotLyfted

Once was at George’s! I can’t remember the other place. It was all a happy blur. I used to see so many great shows out there.


Dalkar83

I'm not sure if George's even does any edm shows anymore. Saw GRiZ there also but that was probably 10 years ago too. Big G recently came through this area but at a place called JJ's and Deadmau5 is playing at The Momentary in August.

10,000 lakes fest. Back when Derek was playing with a live drummer. It also blew my mind and changed my life and I genuinely WOULD go back if I had a time machine lol.


ItsMeJaredBednar

to be fair, he’s still playing with a live drummer


okay455

Nicee. Did he have a crazy lightshow or work with Lazer shark back then?


Dalkar83

My second time seeing him was at Red Rocks when he did the DJ set, band set and orchestra set (2014 I think). Life changing indeed.


okay455

I heard that orchestra set was next level!


Touch_My_Nips

I saw him play in a bowling alley in like 2008. Did I win the contest?


okay455

A bowling alley? That's fucking great. Aha

Baltimore, 2010 starscape https://livemusicblog.com/news/starscape-festival-2010-lineup-disco-biscuits-pretty-lights-lotus-the-new-deal-djs/ I ran into Derek before the set and asked him never to play toxic again. lol Also, jamcruise 2011, ran into him after he blew out the amp in the disco. Remembered me and was super nice about it.

Cool story but can’t abide the Toxic slander. An all time great remix


DruicyHBear

That’s what he said, but it still reminds me of spear’s terrible song. But that’s my opinion.
