what was it like? does he "mingle with the croud" ? or is he silent?
he kinda seems like he'd do his shite, say "thanks" and move on..................

Saw him on the CTD tour. The only thing he interacts with is his arse. Sat on the floor the whole performance in front of his labtop. No love for the crowd. But the dancing bears were fun. Music to hang bears to. hehehe

I saw Aphex play at the Incrediable lighthouse party. Richard played a DJ set but played 2 caustic window tracks which was wicked. At the end of his set he looked very happy with the crowd and even signed a few autographs.
Nesh will be a wicked evening.

saw him last summer on Lowlands festival. he was there with Jungleterra and Ovuca for the Rephlex disco assault system. AND IT WAS PHAT! he started with diceccaheedron and ventolin, played much stuff of ICBYD and i think he was doing alot of music live....under his desk of course so I couldn't see him, escept when he was changing a record or so...
the live shit sounded very like windowlicker...it was that sort of music....slowly, but hard, soft but mean... Jamie Lydell was there also and he was MC'ing all the time whilst RDJ was playing...to be honest, it was more screaming....Lydell is completely insane.....he was acting so strange that aphex had to smile, and that was the only time he looked into the crowed. And really, that smile of him...as bizarre in real live as it is on the RDJ Album cover
There's really nothing special apbout RIdchard James himself....he a weird lokinh guy with a long beard an loong hair...he was weiring a t-shirt, no special things...no shiny windowlickerish suit or so...
he played for about 2 hours....and all of the time incredibly hard. ecpesially his Qouth type techno....it sounded so fucking hard. the tent he wa playing in almost busted because of alle the sound that was produced in it....
I've never danced with a smile on my face for so long......I never was so happy and tired after Aphex Twin's gig......
Dedicated to all of you who haven't seen him yet

Yup back in 1997, September 25 here in Vancouver. Absolutely brilliant, the greatest and most bizarre show ever seen due to its n-show nature and Richard lying flat on his stomach NEVER EVER ONCE looking at the audience!
Lights out to the audience instead, and RDJ's Teddy Bears poking through the audience.
Blows Autechre's live show away by miles in terms of actually hearing different tunes and melodies.
I saw Autechre live afterwards and reminded me quite clearly who truly still is the greatest artist and only true heir to Kraftwerks throne:Aphex Twin...
everyone are just his disciples and followers.....
