Additionally, regardless of what anyone thinks about Bowie, he's a
consummate performer and certainly has the experience to do it and do it
well. I saw him on his 50th Birthday tour and I have to say he surprised
me. I'd seen him many, many times in the 70s and 80s, but didn't expect him
to be that sharp, and, well, asskicking.
Moby I have not seen. I do remember seeing The Crystal Method when they
toured with Orbital maybe 3-4 years back and that poster's description of
Moby reminds me of TCM. Horrible and silly. If I recall, they trashed a
keyboard in the set (didn't make much difference as I'm quite sure it
wasn't online anyway), making the whole thing seem even more pointless than
their music (after 30 seconds you've heard what they have to offer imo).
That post sounded like a good case of a bad combination of acts and an even
worse case of billing order. Kind of like when I saw King Crimson warming
up for Slade in the 70s. Or maybe Yes paired with Balck Sabbath (both of
these are not made up).
