Opening was experimental electronic DJ Vincent Parker, an explosive young fellow with tons of talent in his fingertips. Using a laptop and some mixing equipment that made the music go all wonky, and backed by some fantastically cued visuals of old movie reels, video game characters and the cast of You Can’t Do That On Television getting green slimed, [ed. I thought it was from the YTV gameshow Uh Oh!, but it was definitely people being slimed.] Parker pulled off a glitchy, beat-heavy set with his humble bank of electronics, resulting in a mad spastic dance that had him reeling and rollicking all over the stage. It was obvious that he enjoys what he does and by the halfway point he had a few people up and enjoying themselves as crazily as he was. Aside from the early curfew after the headliners, nothing was about to dampen this spazz party, and a fantastic party it was!

Man, Vincent rules.
He’s got his own style, and own electronic music opinion.
He’s not just another Ragga, Dancehall, UK Dubstep club scene dick-sucker, like Vancouver seems to shit out by the dozen.
He is, Vincent Parker.
