Yellow Claw

The show was awesome. The only problem was it was in fucking Georgia and in downtown which is fine for drinking and riding scooters but if you are 28 pretending to be 18 and a White man from the south your where the same target on your back as you do when you go to Europe and they figure out your an American. Charlotte is amazing that is a better music dedicated city. I went because my friends went I wouldn’t have gone alone because everywhere in Atlanta they price gauge tourist. Moreover the club had a bathroom attendant instead of a woman dedicated to giving people water at the end of the show and if 50 people are smoking drugs in an indoor club that’s a necessity for hospitality in my open. There was no way to buy a vip wristband and the door so you could escape the floor if you wanted too. And it was 5$ for a Fiji water. I would think I nightclub doesn’t want people passing out or having to call an ambulance for big concerts where they know things are gonna be extra wild. I mean yellowclaw was main event at Tomorrowland. It’s a little bush league to have two cops that aren’t paying attention and not actually providing security services. That private investigators or bouncers or off duty bounty hunters and soldiers can’t provide. I was so happy to get out of there with some bathroom water I refilled 10 minutes early. So I could be sore in my hotel room. Those damn people weren’t smoking jule pods which would be acceptable and understandable and predictable. That clubs off my list for going back. I’d only go back to see Atlanta United the Atlanta braves or to hook up with a hooters girl. And I love these type of shows I’m only saying this because these things need to be improved. It’d be worth a 50$ ticket over a 30$ ticket.

In recent months, we've found that there's several acts out there that, once they reach the point that they're asked to be headliners, their performances start to feel like they're phoning it in. I'm happy to say that Yellow Claw is still showing up and cranking out great, high-energy, audience-engaging shows. You don't walk away with the feeling that they're just capering around to a pre-recorded audio-track. In short, they put on a great show (and, at 8000 steps/hour, my FitBit agreed!).

Over the years, we've seen YC about a half dozen times and in a couple different cities - three time in DC. Each time, the crowds just get bigger and so does the energy.

We've been coming to Echostage for several years now and this was the biggest crowd I've seen ...and the longest line waiting to get in. For as "people-y" as it was, the energy was a lot better than many shows we've taken in at Echostage. While the crowd was pressing from the shear number of people, there wasn't the amount of rudeness that often accompanies DC area shows. It was easy to move through the crowd to get to/from the bar and bathrooms. And, people that were doing the same didn't seem to be trying to jam their way through. Bonus, no one groped my wife last night.

Only down note on the night was that, with the size and speed of the line, we couldn't get inside to catch any of Moksi. This is twice, now, that I've been someplace and wanted to see Moksi but circumstances prevented it.

While I had no particular ideas around Boogie T prior to the show, he was a pretty decent opener. Not necessarily who I'd have open for Yellow Claw, but still a good performance absent that context.

The Dutch trio from Amsterdam called Yellow Claw are an interesting group. Their music involves a lot of different genres like hip hop, dubstep, trap, electro and so on, which at first I expected to be really put of by, but strangely enough I wasn't. They first became well known in 2010 after performing in a well known club in Amsterdam called the Jimmy Woo. They went on to release several singles that did well and got a lot of recognition in 2012 and 2013. In 2013 they did released their first international EP called 'Amsterdam Trap Music', which I guess is pretty straight forward and to the point. They have done a lot of gigs and I think they are best to see in a club environment. They are a very lively trio with a unique sense of style in their outfits and in their music. With the use of strobe lights and smoke machines, their performance really gets going, it's hard not to share in their moment, almost feeling like you're in the middle of a giant rave with not one person standing still. They have gathered a lot of loyal fans throughout their touring, which shows how good they are to see in person.

The Dutch DJ trio Yellow Claw consisting of Bizzey, Jim Aasgier and Nizzle are another example of the fantastic dance music coming out of central Europe at the moment. Following in the footsteps of the greats, Yellow Claw are now a staple addition to the lineups of Coachella, Tomorrowland and more.

The fact there are three DJs means that there is always somebody free to interact and hype up the audience whilst the others concentrate on the technical elements in order to make sure the mix goes off without a hitch. There is no sign of fault this evening as the band spins over twenty tracks without missing a single note. The audience roars in appreciation for their own popular original work as well as huge dance numbers from the likes of Showtek and DJ Fresh. Incorporating pretty hardcore genres including trap music, hip hop, dubstep and hardstyle means there is a mixture of dancing, jumping and moshing in the crowds below but one thing is certain that the audience do not stop moving throughout the trios set.

This was hands down the best Yellow Claw concert I have ever been to in life, this is my 4th concert this year and they just seem to be getting better, every other concert I've been to seemed rushed and I've paid over 200+ for tickets, this concert I spent about 40, it was the longest concert Ive ever been to in life, which is great. I arrived around 10pm,which they said door would open then, i didn't get inside the concert until midnight which was bad,however I didnt leave the concert until 430am. I loved every single moment, i met them in person about 3 times, so i was a little bit sad i didnt get to see them and take pictures with them for my 30th bday however I am very excited i got to meet Cesqeaux, LNY TNZ and Mike.

I went to Yellow Claw's concert in Atlanta, it was one of the best concerts I've ever been to, the energy was so amazing, the songs the play were incredible, everything about it was just out of this world. They engaged with the fans too like they were family, overall, totally recommend it, if they come back to Atlanta I would not even think about it, I would just go again.

On the whole, great show. Coulda done without most of the opening DJs' hour-long medlies of 30-second cuts.

Definitely coulda done without all the "bros" and creepers in the audience.

That said, *really* wish that Yellow Claw coulda played a longer set. Nice waking up good and tired from the prior night's bouncing about.

LIT. FUCKING LIT. FRONT ROW FORT LAUDERDALE. STOOD FOR 7 HOURS. TOTALLY WORTH IT. SO AWESOME ONE OF THE BEST NIGHTS / TIMES OF MY ENTIRE LIFE. WATER AND BUD LIGHT WAS FIVE BUCKS A POP BUT IF YOU GO TO A RAVE OR MUSIC FESTIVAL THEY USUALLY LET YOU BRING IN AN EMPTY WATER BOTTLE AND YOU CAN FILL IT UP AT A FREE WATER STATION.

The show was awesome as expected and Cesaux and Moksi are new names that I will be looking for. Webster Hall however was too packed and uncomfortable. It was hard to dance or move at all. If it wasn't for the music they rocked I would have left.

Saw these guys at Trapfest Dallas! Was amazing, but sadly Herobust out Shined them and my neck is broken. Yellow claw is definently more hard style, but the performance was quite enjoyable. Would recommend
