DJ SNAKE IN CONCERT:
Up-and-coming hip hop producer DJ Snake scored one of the biggest hits of 2014 with the Lil Jon-featured banger "Turn Down for What", so it's no surprise that his live show is one of the year's hottest tickets. Snake's instantly recognizable blend of skittering trap beats and insanely catchy synth hooks have struck a major chord with audiences, and his masterful buildups, breakdowns, and drops have earned him a live reputation that matches his impressive studio credentials. Whether he's laying down original cuts or treating fans to thumping remixes of Kanye West and AlunaGeorge, Snake always delivers seriously dance-worthy sets on his must-see tours.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Paris-based DJ and producer DJ Snake, a.k.a. William Grigahcine, made his professional debut behind the scenes as a producer on Lady Gaga's 2011 sophomore album Born This Way. His work on that release earned him a Grammy nomination for Album of the Year in 2012, foreshadowing the success that would soon follow with his own material. After releasing a string of acclaimed remixes in 2013 for artists like Duck Sauce and Major Lazer, Snake made his debut on charts around the world with "Turn Down For What", a ubiquitous club anthem featuring vocals by Lil John. The song topped the US Dance/Electronic Songs chart and reached the Top 20 in his native France, launching him to international stardom. Since then, Snake has collaborated with legendary producer Diplo, released the track "Get Low" with Dillon Francis, and been named a "2014 Artist to Watch" by Fox Weekly. With appearances at HARD Summer Music Festival and the Mad Decent Block Party tour rounding out his 2014, Snake has cemented his status as one of the hottest new producers in the game.

5 hours of near-constant rave scene. Was great. Venue floor got pretty gross/sticky/soaked from spills. That's probably more idiots trying to bring a full beer through a thousand dancing person crowd :-D
Ticket Master emailed me and said that doors would open at 7p instead of 8p. This was a lie. Doors didn't open until 8p. I am not sure if the back to back sets (without break) was a direct result of this. The only break was when set up for DJ Snake's light show was going up. Overall, the concert seemed rushed.
Very good show. Wish DJ snake played more of his own songs though. Played the same one 3 times... Twice. They're good songs but he was also playing a lot of other peoples music. Also, adele is not the same genre idk what he was thinking. Venue is always good even though it was cold as hell with the tiny area for the line coming in. Overall cool place and great show though.
This was my 5th rave, but I have never, ever, seen so many drugs in the crowd. FIVE guys threw up right in front of us after blatantly taking some drugs they fought from some raggedy old black guy in front of the temple. Right in front of everybody. Other than this, the DJs were fantastic, loved the music, and the rest of the crowd was energetic and gorgeous. 8/10
Well first off, Malaa, mercer, and tchami were really good. But EVERYONE got more hyped when DJ SNAKE came on stage. If there were to have been lasers, then it would be a 5 out of 5.
The place was pack wall to wall!!!! It was like a RAVE everyone was dancing and pushing and pushing and dancing and throwing water! They threw out cardboards of DJ Snake letters and his head shot!!!! Cray cray cray!!!! Love him!!!! He showed me love on social media as well!!!
Once again NRG was a huge success! This should be a regular event in SF. Same venue, same times, new preformances! Second time in a row, and I can't wait for next time!
I had so much fun! The music was great. The people were great.
It was my first time there at Bill Graham Cuvic Auditorium for NRG and I have to say I love this place. The view of the stage was fantastic.
Great time came all the way from Miami and I was not disappointed !!!
Amazing sets and the amount of people attending was jaw dropping.
Great event just like the other We NRG earlier this year, keep em coming!
Great location and venue. Too smoky inside with people smoking for my taste.
The venue was perfect for this event! Great time raging till morning!!
This was a great venue, I really enjoyed the two tier dancing arrangment. It is such a good size and upon entering it seemed to go very smoothly. I liked that there were paramedic ready to help those who needed their services. It was an enjoyable experience, knowing that it was ran properly.
I had the time of my life, it was so amazing. i wish i could live it over and over again. and then again...twice.
NRG lives up to Insomniac's reputation for a great production. This particular NRG had a primarily trap style lineup, which is a genre of EDM I like, but not my favorite. I recommend people to keep an eye out for the lineup, when deciding to go to this event. I decided to go the day of and for a last minute choice, I had a pretty good time.
I really enjoyed this rave. It wasn't at all ratchet or ghetto for an in door rave. Plenty of ventilation and plenty of seating for if you got tired. Sooooooo much fun. I would definitely go again. Lights were amazing and so we're all the DJs.
Muisc was not good. I wouldn't go there next time.
If you like Rap/new school/old school,/west coast/ and hip hop and R&B then this rave is for you.
