The reason I'm writing this is because I went and saw Plaid perform on the latest warp tour. I was hoping to hear new stuff (which I'm sure I did) along with some older songs. To my disappointment though, they had tailored their whole show for the dancing crowd. I mean, they didn't play any of their best songs (in my opinion), only dancy stuff. I could really give a shit to go hear dance music, I can't possibly think of anything more mind numbing and boring. So my question is... as far as live shows go, do you think electronic groups have to resort to dance music or is there some avenue where they could still play the music that shows up on their album? I hope someday electronic music will have the balls to step out and do something really creative for a live show because it is by far the most limitless music out there. |

I agree. I did love the way bands "danced-up" their tracks for live shows before...but now I'm bored of seeing act after act play music perfectly tailored for jumping up-and-down to...I want a concept show, an interesting idea. Even Tangerine Dream's concert was dancey (they used to do pitch-black hour-long improvisations...not any more) |

erm...if I go to see someone live the last thing I would want to do is just sit down or stand and appreciate the music. I can do that at home. When i go out I want to dance with some foxy female who I will later make love too while listening to the none dancy stuff. It all works out nice in the end. |

No, but w3rd on the street is yo mumma is... jj ;) I've never had the privelege to see a live idm performance but if Plaid or someone played dance music I'd be right pissed off, I like to just sit and take in this kind of music...it's great to just lie back in a chair and focus all your thoughts on it. |

it it is not a sit down concert you MUST pump it up and dance it a bit or it will be dead boring and pointless you will not appreciate or hear the abstract songs if you are just standing there ..you need a drink and a seat |
