    I've seen him live a few times and he always plays a good few of his early stuff.

    Class act!

    I'd say he's probably bored of rave stuff, although you never know.

    He's certainly very talented. I'd love to hear him make a new "classic rave" sort of album.

    Do people know he actually only took his first ecstasy tablet a few years ago and never took anything back in the day, and is quoted as saying despite making some amazing tunage he "never got what the scene was really about" until he actually took his first pill and it all fell into place (ahhh the memmorable first ever pill:o:D)

    He did. It was released over a year ago and was called "Last night". More dance than "classic rave" though.

    He had bottles thrown at him one night in Dublin, SFX he took out a guitar and the crowd started fecking bottles at him, so he threw the decks and the mike off the stage.

    :eek::eek:

    Really? haha.

    The promoter forced him to come back out, so he played records and refused to mix them :pac:

    they were there just to 'rave away' you know.... not the musician. hardly genuine fans were they?

    Don't there's anyone excusing the bottle throwing. It was a stupid thing to do.

    All the acts on the night were dance acts, you have a crowd of e munchers rocking and then moby comes out with a guitar and a singer.

    I personally couldn't have given two hoots what he played, that's the sort of "place" I was in and the "fans" of moby were probablt not "fans" of his guitar solo's but of the many hits he brought out and I'm sure that's what they were there to hear.

    he should have known it wouldn't go down well, this wasn't the expirmental rock tent and electric picnic it was a few hundred "ravers" I would have thought with his expirience he would have been watching previous acts and got a feel for thr crowd and what they wanted to hear.

    so to some extent i could understand people's fustration's but throwing bottles went to far, there was a huge amount of booing too, which i think led to decks/mic getting flung off the stage in fact IIRC he through a very heavy stand into the crowd which was equally stupid.

    I was in the SFX that night, I think it was about October 1995. I headed down after the usual Bohs match on the Friday night. I had seen him earlier in the year at the Tivoli and he was awesome, fantastic. But right from the start of this gig there was a bad drunken vibe around the gig.

    Liquid Wheel were on beforehand and rocked the place, really stole the show. Moby came on and did Thousand while standing on the speakers, bottles were being thrown at him at this satge and then he took out the guitar and the crowd booed him. He lost the plot and stormed off. He came back on and did two more tunes and that was it, 40 minutes.

    A DJ had to cover the rest of the night, cant remember who it was, could have been Pressure. That was the first night I heard Access by DJ Misjah, but in all very very disappointed with the gig.

    :(

    Liquid wheel :pac::pac: Forgot all about that.

    If that was your first time hearing access it must have been your first time to see Mark Kavanagh! he was always belting it out, one of the stand out tunes of the time for me, but the radio ruined it for me :mad:
