Maybe the standalone audio is fine, but the visual part is very disappointing - just four people standing being their synths, with absolutely no stage presence whatsoever !

I went to see Rossi on his I Talk Too Much tour, where he played some acoustic versions of Quo songs, including a great performance of Spinning Wheel Blues, from Quo?s first real 12 bar boogie album Ma Kelly?s Greasy Spoon.

Tbh problem is with synths / keyboards etc take Underworld as a eg, their music might be good, when to you go to see them you enjoy it live, laser, etc but truthfully how much stage presence can someone have if have to stand there pressing pushing buttons and plinkety plonking away on keyboard. So I can't imagine it being much cop watching a video of any type of these bands.

You don't go to Underworld to watch them play, you go to dance.
Kraftwerk though, you'd go to absorb the atmosphere, i agree it's not much to look at but it's not really the point.

How true.

If you want stage presence and to dance then go see Prodigy.

I thought they were brilliant. Not sure i'd have the energy to see them now though as it was a huge dance floor / mosh pit, depending on the song, for 100 minutes.

May not be the same now of course without Keith.

I only saw prodigy once and it was fat of the land tour. Some groups when the main person has gone it is hard to imagine it without them.
