The Thievery Corporation are playing on the opening night, they are made up of two DJs, Eric Hilton and Rob Garza. The Corporation have gained critical acclaim from many magazines; Urb raves “Aptly named, this studio duo uses the sampler as a weapon, holding hostage the sly, secret sounds of action movies, MCs and ambient tracks.”
