I attended the Skrillex, Fatboy Slim gig at Vector Arena on the 2nd of March. After spending 4 years living in London and seeing as many gigs as I possibly could this was the first one I have seen at Vector, I have heard mixed comments about the venue but was throughly impressed. I was a bit dubious about Skrillex, being in my 30's and only knowing a few tracks I thought I might be 'a bit old' for Skrillex, I prefer Liquid D&B and Funky House to Dubstep but I was pleasantly surprised, managed to bust out a few dance moves.
Fatboy Slim took it to the next level though, I have heard his tunes bouncing around for years and thought it's be just a matter of him standing up there and playing some tunes in there entirety but man was I wrong - it was awesome, loved the mix of old and new tracks and his enthusiasm.
Can't wait to see David Guetta at Vector next month - bring it on!

Opening act(s): Porter Robinson, way underrated it's a shame more people weren't there earlier he was brilliant.
Die Antwoord, not really my cup of tea but they still put on a great show.
Skrillex was phenomenal from start to finish!!! @

I had the best time!!! The quality of sound, lighting and the atmosphere in the arena was so hyped. If anyone ever had the chance to see any of these artists then take out a second mortgage and do it!!!
The VIP upgrade was well worth it, we got to use the game room, 2 bars = less congestion and no queueing for the toilets. We got to watch from upstairs which was great for me because I'm short so I could see everything and we had heaps of space to dance and really let rip. I'd definately invest in that again :)

Although i went to the concert thinking that fat boy slim wouldnt be that great, much to my suprise i thought he was just as good as skrillex, i really enjoyed him. I think the concert should have started later and ended later and only be made r18 instead of all ages as the type of acts such as skrillex and die antwoord were not specificly for the younger age, Older fans appreciate them more and in all insstances respect the performers more. I was sad to see the amount of items being thrown on stage at skrillex in particluar. There here to entertain us and maybe if we showed our appreciation a little more he would have stayed to do an encore instead of leaving.

First of all, I think this was the best $100 I have spent in my life!

I went to this concert alone because none of my friends could afford it at the time.
This was going to be the concert ruined for me, but then I thought, "who goes to a concert and stay's with their friends the whole time anyway?" well, nobody.

All the headline acts were amazing! But by the time 10:30 came around and fatboy was introduced to the stage, I was so tired I could barely dance anymore!

I think 5 hours is almost too long to be dancing the whole time, and I didn't know that I could go and sit in the stands, so I suffered alot!

The drink prices scared me alot! I had to pay $5 for a simple bottle of water which I think is far too expensive, and they would make more money if things were cheaper, as we have already forked out $100 for the concert!

I was dead by the end, and had to leave at 11:30. I could barely walk by the time I got out of Vector Arena. This proves to me that I had a good night, despite being alone and with not alot of money.

The last time I saw Fatboy Slim was in the mid noughties and he was riding high in the charts. Seven years on and he was back in fine albeit fairly expected form, spinning a greatest hits set with few surprises. It was akin to attending a trendy wedding reception with five thousand guests - however due to the youth of the vast majority of the crowd - they may have never heard this stuff first time round. In fact the person I had actually come to see was Skrillex who delivered some brain frying dubstep with bigger drops than jumping off the SkyTower - and strangely (unless I missed it) he didn't play Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites. Then again, I doubt if he is resting on his laurels just yet as opposed to Great Uncle Norman. - He is the hot one to watch at the moment, and probably destined for even bigger things if the audience reaction was anything to go by. I also managed to catch about half of Die Antwoord's manic set.... a very strange mixture of rave, euro techno, machine gun rapping and featuring a diminutive blond singer with skin-tight gold lame pants and a voice like Minnie Mouse on helium - but actually they delivered a rocking set and clearly have a unique look and approach that makes Bjork look positively staid. A great night. Sorry Porter Robinson... maybe next time

We had a young child with us, security were great, giving us ear plugs.

Thanks Vector and of course thanks to the artists - great sound and visuals.
