Suppose you were preforming at an event. Would you have live effects and a stage preformance going on like Afx's dancing bears. What would they be? Richard has some pretty obscure things going on while he is preforming this topic is stupid.

Having a control box for the lights is always good and manually making them flash/change pattern in time to the music etc. is quite fun.
AS to dancers etc. I don't know what I'd have. I've only played on a stage once and there was no space for dancers there...

Once while richard was preforming he had a 7 foot tall skinny guy in a toga and gold mask prance around the stage while 3 midgets were bumping and grinding each other.
I suppose I would have to get an 8 foot tall guy wearing a prostetic double penis and a marylin monroe mask. I think he should be accompanied by a goat that randomly walks on stage for no apearent reason.

I'd have dancers and caged monkeys. Fire breathing and some crazy visuals going on. Plus a live sex show down the front with people humping in time to the music. I'd want it to be an outdoor one too. Everytime the bass hit a certain frequency then fireworks would go off. I'd parachute into the DJ booth at the beginning too. Oh and the live sex show would be:
Eliza Dushku Angelina Jolie Christina Ricci Shannon Elizabeth
in a free for all. Maybe I'd bring in Sylvia Saint too for the hell of it. At the end of the show there'd be the best lasers and fireworks show ever. Plus there'd be free Punch and Pie.
That'd be my first ever gig. My last too. I'd be a legend :)

huge screen pouring out random art Underworld Style a couple of big "fuck off" lasers (the kind that people look at and go "fuck off!") and a couple of dancers, all of which would be dressed up in strange space suit and have hair dyed in all types of silly colors

the goat part = comedy
like it'll trot out every 20 mins, look around slowly ..stare at the crowd, look at the ground, and slowly walk off stage.. maybe a stagehand could stand centerstage and feed it milk occasionally
ceri,.. you have performed live shows? like what? were u djing or was this a performance of original material? any farm animals ?

I like the idea of holding a concert in a large run down house with the speakers pumping and the band in the corner, I always go more mental at set up like that as apposed to concerts

All sorts of wacky stuff would happen at my event. I would just want to freak people out and show them how off the wall I am and how square they are for not getting it. Idiots. How dare they even begin to think that they could get my sense of humour! I would leave the club triumphant knowing I'm the best guy in the world and I'd go home and have a wank.

After bills message I dont feel like being so wacky anymore. I think Id move the preformance to a dirty alley and play electronica for all the hobos strung out on meth.

DJing, but doing lights at the same time.
I need a more powerful laptop before I can perform live :/
DIV have great visuals live as you said. Only Leftfield's were as good.

when did u see them..
I'm not really sure what my take on DIV is though.. I was really into their first album, because it reminded me of that show, and a lot of drug-induced months to which that served as part of the soundtrack (along w/ blackstar, roni size and dj spooky/shadow) but a lot of it can be easily dismissed (the half-raggae/dub horseshit) and I wasn't into much of "the contino sessions" after the excellent 'dirge' ended.. the little I've heard of 'scorpio rising' wasn't too impressive at all... what do u think of them

well I loved 'rematerialized' (esp. live .. w/ the underwater scenes on the big screen).. and 'all that glitters' and a few others.. I never really listened to much of 'contino sessions' tho

i have seen he best fucking afx stage show ever!
The time Summer2000 The place Dublins Temple Bar Music Center The event Rephlex Dsico Assault System brought over my the money left to a Dublin student in his dead grannies will!
Why was it the best? 1. Afx whipped the crowd into a frenzy with his insane grin and fist banging.. he was the un-shyest i ever heard of him being
2. DJ Cylob dressed up as a banana for the entire gig and danced his socks off.. i say he lost pounds in perspiration
3. There were in total about 20 Rephlex bods on stage having a great time
4. 2 japanes schoolgirl types with pigtails were dancing as well
5. Loadsa of squareousher (HND, bigloada type tunes) 6. Kosmic Kommand DJ´d some serious acid too! Thje best giog i was ever at!

I saw them on the Scorpio Rising Tour.
Scorpio Rising takes a bit more getting into than the other albums, but some tracks are absolute gems (Diving Horses, Natja, Hands around my Throat).
I really like DIV, I wouldn't say I'm a big fan, but I'd certainly see them again live.
