do they play and have decks and synthes and mixers or is it a display of the latest macs in the market?

just a couple of 'know it all's hunched over a big black box. Boring, too. Most boring live show I ever saw. I think it was the confield tour. I liked Mike P better. Never seen aphex sadly.

When I saw it, it was two guys on sequencer-drum-machine things and it sounded better than any of their albums. In fact, the drum beats, bass lines, and sounds were so brilliant that the DJ sounded increadably flat afterwards.

Put it this way, going out drinking in nightclubs now is such a dull experience. I feel like I have seen the best. heard the loudest and greatest music I will ever hear in a nightclub. Any smell of smoke now just gives me a flashbacks of that wonderful night which i will remember for the rest of my life. I feel that any experience now will fail to give me the same adrenalin rush that i got that night.
I went back to the place autechre played at a couple of days ago, i was gonna go in just to try and reminisce but they were charging £12 entrance fee for someone i hadn't heard of, so i didn't go.

they were hidden in shadows when i saw them (i think this was around confield) and you couldn't really see what they were doing. they went on close to midnight, and i can honestly say it was one of the most intense, invigorating and astonishing performances i've attended. overwhelming and absorbing...

I do love Autechre and was at the height of my adoration when I when to see them but:
Autechre is very, very boring live.

yeah i just saw them last night. it was very entertaining. they had this breakbeat theme throughout their entire performance... it was done tastefully. the opening acts were crappy. but that has nothing to do with them. i'm just saying... just in case you have to suffer through opening acts..

it surprises me because you liked the aphex sets so much i've never sat through a whole set of the twin, maybe because i dont like it recorded, maybe because i dont like it alot period
i was pretty impressed with ae because they did it so 'live', also with so much stuff i never heard, actually their whole sound surprised me :)
i guess it just comes down to you liking aphex better than ae

well, there's certanly music preference involved :) but aphex releases and aphex live are two different things imo...so far the best gigs i've been to were aphex and spiritual unity one..i just can't get over the last one..i thought i've seen it all and then something like that hits me..everything i see after that (and i've seen plenty in the last two weeks) just doesn't come close to spiritual unity..i think i'll appreciate music more when i forget a bit about that gig a bit..it was just so amazing!!

I appreciate your honesty and enthusiam.
It was very good indeed. Can't wait for the next tour, whenever it may be in the future. I wonder how "live" what they were doing was? It sounded so slick that I'm not sure how much was pre-planned and how much was improvised.
