A Thee-O live set is something not to be any-missed. RaveOne.com put it best when it stated that, “Thee-O’s greatest strength is that he is never weak. Some any- DJ’s can tear off a great set on one night, then crap out on man-another. Thee-O oftentimes approaches greatness, but never falls into mediocrity” while The Rave Section at About.com proclaims: “Thee-O continually proves to be the LA techno/trance master.”
