holy shit kraftwerk!

[James Ford]

So the tickets were $35?

this is overpriced by $25.....

[Vas Deferens]

I'd be so tired if I'm part of Kraftwerk and have to stand and hit play for 4 hours, assuming each show is 2 hours long.

[Hexenjagd]

They don't just "hit play."

They are on stage with sequencers and synthesizers.

late show not sold out yet.

Lead melodies are generally played live; countermelodies and rhythms are under constant live refinement.

70 year old dudes hitting play and saying "we are robots" does seem sort of comical.

  Back in the seventies, Kraftwerk were good. But in 2005!!!!   :eek:   Come one, they had a very limited shelf life!! Especially after Mike Myers on Saturday night live and his "sprocket" (or whatever it was) skit. How could you ever take them serious again after that?

The same could easily be said about:
 
 David Bowie
 The Rolling Stones
 Elton John
 The Sex Pistols
 Bauhaus
 The Sisters of Mercy
 
 and yet all of these bands still seem/seemed to bring in major crowds.

Obvioulsy you weren't at the last Sisters of Mercy show at the club.

That "Ruckzuck" is devastating.


Damn shame they all but have disavowed that material's existence.
