After seeing Jamie Lidell sing his soul on the line while adding crazy feedback
and looping it all over town, which was just after DNTEL was on rocking the
accordion while tweaking knobs with <unsure of name> jamming on the elec guitar
at a warp show a while back, I came to the conclusion that a live show doesnt get
to happen often and pressing play is something i can do at home.
Although, I am not picky.
Adequate and relevant visuals add a lot, real time creation on any type of
instrument is a treat, singing, dancing, heck even otto on the recent schematic
show in a wig with mic was welcome, as silly as it was.
I tend to look away when its just a person and a laptop and that eerie glow upon
their intent, yet unenthusiastic face.
But I still tend to go, because often you don't know what's going to happen.
Plus, if the town doesn't draw that many of the bigger names, people gotta take
what they can get in order to get out of the house and hear the stuff they love
but just a little bit louder.
