The Knitting Factory in West Hollywood was the setting for a New Years Eve show featuring Particle, Delta Nove and DJ Quickie Mart. After Particle took the stage for its first set, it yielded the stage to Delta Nove which led a samba line before offering its own mini-set. The groups principals then swapped instruments with the four members of Particle during an extended jam at midnight that ultimately yielded Particle on stage with the Delta Nove horn section. From here Particle charged into three covers from(hold on and guess, after reading many other accounts of NYE shows…yup you got it) James Brown: Living In America, Get Up Offa That Thang and Superbad. Particle then charged into its second set as a quartet for a stretch that included Ed + Molly and Metropolis before the members of Delta Nove stepped up again for a second instrument switch that eventually landed back in Particle territory for a run from Mothership Connection into Launchpad to close out the set.
