just saw aphex twin last night at the vic theatre in chicago....
ill cut right to the chase:
first act - linoleum. less then impressive couldnt
understand much of what the singer was singing, but she was pretty...
second act - sneaker pimps. better then linoleum, i started to move a
little bit
with the rest of the crowd but none the less I was still feeling
uninspired. bring out twin I remmember thinking....
third act - dj luke vibert. spining some good d&b tracks that got
the crowd a *little* more excited.
finally twin. first track i didn't recognize...the crowd was warming up
to the tunes....
after about 10 minutes of aural confusion...out comes something
familiar (cant recall trak)
the bears come out bouncing and humping and the crowd loves it....
richard was on for only about an hour...i remember hearing only about 3
or 4 traks that
i recognized. his last trak didgeridoo finally got everyone moving, but
it was over by then.
richard leaped of his couch without a word and was gone, we all pleaded
for an encore
but never got one.
after the show a group of us waited outside his bus. he came out,
signed albums etc.
my brother even got his aphex logo tattoo signed....
after getting my ticket stub signed i shook his hand, and thanked him.
we all went home in wonder about meeting the twin....
