THEY didn't sound like idiots- the interviewer did, though, and so did the people who called in. The brothers told a story about a show they did in Germany in which they were almost struck by lightening. There wasn't really any question about their upbringing, only whether they came from a musical family which they didn't- what more are they supposed to say? The interviewer started the interview by asking how they "hooked up"-- um....hello? THEY'RE BROTHERS!!! What the hell kind of question is that? They mainly talked about their influences, their view on the American electronic music scene, Organic, etc. etc. Nothing earth shattering was disclosed.

---------- Did anyone hear Orbital on Modern Rock Live last night? I didn't get to listen, but my brother said they sounded like a couple of idiots (and he is a fan too). Here's a couple of quotes: MRL: So, do you have any really interesting stories about touring or your fans that you could share with our listeners. Orbital: no. MRL: OK, can you tell us a bit about your upbringing. Orbital: um, no. etc.... They did mention that their favorite band was Stereolab though. Cool enough. What else did they say? MC
