I too was at the Austin show. Musically I was impressed, but not that
impressed. I was more excited about getting to see Negativeland, in action,
in person. I guess you could say that I am more into the concept/process
behind what they do than the actual product they produce. Nonetheless, it
was very interesting to see how "lo-tech" their setup was. I was amazed
that most, if not all their vocal samples were flown in from half a dozen of
those cartridge players you find in radio station (the ones they use for
PSAs and other soundclips that use 8-track looking cartridges) They must
have had 200+ cartridges stacked up there on stage with them. I also
enjoyed watching them mess with the 16mm projectors. Personally, I really
could have done with out the two "skits" that opened both sets. I know that
is part of Negativeland, but a part that, in my opinion, we could all do
without...

Gawd... I almost pissed my pants here at the Boston show !
That rendition of "A Big 10-8 Place" made me hallucinate... and I hadn't
taken any psychadellics!
And the puppet show..... I laughed for an hour straight!
