I saw Orbital perform in NYC back in June. I thought it was an amazing show. They performed for around 2 hours. The middle of the set got a little bit harder then I liked, but the beggining and end were fantastic. Their encore was "Out there somewhere" which was delightful. And They wear these large visors, with twin lights on the outside and bounce up and down while they twiddle knobs. They covered material off of all their albumns, and played their more beat-oriented shtuff. brian ----------------------------------------- Monchichi Monchichi, O so soft and cuddly
