That was actually "AMP4" last night. "AMP3" was on late Friday night.

I prefer the "Pocket Calculator" video, since it shows more of them (i.e., the 1981 tour live setup) than "The Model" did. But props to them for showing *any* full-length Kraftwerk. (It's too bad there's not a "Numbers" video, then maybe all those kids who hear Juan Atkins drop it during a set would know from whence it came.)

Uh, isn't "Cascade" only a couple of years old, at most?

Every time I'd start to think a passage of that track was pretty groovin', it would train-wreck into another completely different style. Ick. Disappointments: AGAIN the videos were edited (mostly cut off, in this case), lotsa repeats again, do we *really* need to see "Born Slippy (NUXX)" and "Firestarter" on AMP, etc. Positives: "Cascade", "The Model" Who's "Paul Hasslinger", anyway? - Greg
