an alternate perspective: I saw them and was bummed by their incessant pretentions to being "performance art" when their show should probably be on Nickelodeon. not that the yelping frat boys in the audience would care either way. The music is a tepid reworking of minimalism such as one might have encountered at any number of modern dance performances 1972 - present. they've gotten enormous loads of money doing the same show for a fucking ever. they've hired actors to handle the simultaneous performances in various cities. k ....................................
