I dont like a lot of it because... well its not really played live for you most of the time. You dont get the same energy as some rock band or something jumping around the stage slamming out songs on the guitars and drums.

depends on who's doing it and how... most laptoppers can be a little boring if yer not really into the music... ( i am a laptopper myself... so I'm not slammin 'em ) -- I also think if you got some other stuff going on up there... like lights, video, or dancing bears, whatever.. it can be more exciting... with all that info aside... I still don't mind a few people getting on stage and sitting behind their machines...

yeah there are some damn good electronic shows.. if you like the music why not support the acts. it's a good time anyhow.
plaid and mira calix was amazing live. plaid had all the visuals complementing the tunes and wow. also saw slicker from heftyrecords that day too, great stuff.

I saw Plaid and mira calix live too and I wasnt too impressed with Plaid but Mira Calix was an awesome DJ. I saw mouse on mars live, but they had a live drummer so I guess its not really lap top but it was great anyway. I think it just depends how into the group you are.

The first show I've seen live was by Lowfish, Solvent, and Skanfrom live in Toronto back in september. No laptops to be seen. SOlvent played a selection of discs while Lowfish, and Skanfrom pieced together some of their songs. Good stuff.

i think they need more live p.a's at parties. i love them, no matter who it is. just as long as its not crystal method, fatboy slim or those lame as prodigy kids.

don't know autechre did the same thing. during the concert sean booth was hidden behind the table. at first i thought he's gone but after 5 or 10 minutes he came up for a short time. i would really like to know what these guys are doing under the computers.
