There's been a bunch of threads about Cex's live show, more back and forth than i can summarize (check some archives if you can). People love him or hate him it seems. Personally I loved his show the times i've seen him. Just like you said - he solved the problem of the crowd being bored. - cutups Yeah, but I don't think that he really 'solved' the problem. I felt much more bored anyway. Well I think it's my opinion, but I´d rather have someone hiding behind his laptop looking uninteresting but making a great sound than someone making music far beyond his posibilities with two clowny-guys at his side trying do make fun.

Inevitably its going to be a matter of opinion. People have made the exact opposite argument. - cutups --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
