Don't get me wrong. Aphex's music beat me up too, but Orbital just seems to enjoy playing live more, and it comes across in their performances. I like being able to SEE the artist perform also, not just hide from everyone while some bloke with an Aphex T-shirt dances in front of me. Hell, I could've been the dancer. I wonder what that guy gets paid. But that's just me. -boB
