:) yeah, he's pretty good at that, only Gore sings sometimes....

Can't remember any dance steps. There certainly wasn't a third member on stage at the gig i saw.

Well, i thought they were OK. They just released the Technology album, so i thought they would play lots off that. To my surprise they played 1 and a half hour of completely new stuff. They may have been visually static but it's the music that counts, and the music was very good. They really got the audience moving. Great atmosphere. The video was OK, but nothing really special. It was kinda like their old videos.
