Temperature? You know those Krauts...austere, chilly, very frigid. I had icicles hanging from my nose. But it was worth every damn minute.
 
 What a strange question. It's a sold-out show. It's not chilly, that's for sure.

Geez H, people. Is it too much to answer a simple question without looking like this is an audition for a stand up comedian??

What is your problem?  You had both your questions answered quickly and pretty damn straightforwardly -- no pro cameras, camera phones okay, temp was pretty chilly (not!).  Take this one message -- chill.  There's also a FAQ section where you can ask a question and get an answer, no frills or discussion.

What amazing two hours which just flew by, loads of fantastic and never dull sounds emerging from the soundsytem.  My favorite songs were "Chrono" the nod back to Detroit, the tweaked version of "Pocket Calculator" and "Radioactivity" which just proves how wack most of the current electronic music is.  Beats more block rockin' then even the Chemical Brothers.
 
 Wish I could have cloned myself last night.  Was situtanted in the balcony near the stage in order to get a peek at what was going on behind the workstations, but left quickly when couldn't see what  the video screens were showing.  Ended up near the sound booth for the evening...
 
 Aren't these guys due for a boxset treatment soon?   My ex took most of my Kraftwerk with her... And somewhere the  Electrifying Mojo continues to throw down.

i had a great time and have seen them from a few angles now.  i couldn't get into the tent at coachella (had to watch from outside), was 4th row at miami, 2 nights ago i was on the balcony and last night i was dead center about halfway back on the floor.. they were all great, but miami was still the best.

they've had "the catalogue" listed on their website for over a year now, but there's no indication of when it's supposed to come out.  the stuff i read about it last year was that it was supposed to be an 8CD/LP box set... but there's been no indication of when it'll be out..
 meantime, 'minimum maximum' comes out next week, according to what i've seen online.
