cool man, howells on 31st then kraftwerk about a month later, very cool way to wrap up the year.

Howells?

You are hereby banned from the techno forum for 3 months.
heh



Too many good gigs on this month!
Howells will be dope.
Deetron will be dope(er)heh
Pity they are head to head.

Come on down to Ink after tho, I'll be spinning the late set (maybe gett Sam to keep playing, maybe do a 3 on 3 on 3deck mixoff!! heh)

Does Deetron still play off 3? If so off serato I guess...

Yep three decks...
Not sure the Serato angle, will check!

But he's got better promo and dubplate and cd selection than almost anyone in Europe at this point, everyone wants a piece of the Deetron pie!

so who else went apart from slug, seen?

i was...

awesome......very awesome.

i went. thought it was as great as i expected. very cool show.. the new looking guy on the right looked like he tried very hard to not smile and look up after each track, he did a good job except for forgetting to close the lid on his laptop before the robot encore like the rest of the group did. im sure he would have got a paddling for his lack of detail..

the new looking guy is filling in for florian schneider and is called stefan pfaffe

cos florian is a selfish studio rat...

cool gig, those graphics were the bomb.

i only wished one of them would have busted out a bass for tour de france.

the intro to radioactivity was the future!

they might have to re-edit radioactivity to take account of all these new micro reactors that could become available in the nearish future

fantastic show

they are so entertaining without really doing anything

bravo!

hot shizzle!

check the funny comments florian posted on a local blog:
http://bitsontheside.co.nz/2008/11/28/kraftwerk-godfathers-of-techno/

maybe i dont understand german humour. i dont think he grasped kiwi humour.

maybe he felt slighted at not being mentioned

maybe the florian of the blog is not florian

who knows. it could just be some crazed fan.. either way they are wrong about Klaus Dinger - he was one of the founding members on drums wasnt he, even though he didnt last long.

I love the Town Hall! The bass was so dry and massive - without being too loud. There were enough rough components to their live work to hear what they were doing - made it all the more facinating for me - although i must admit i had my eyes closed for the majority of the time i didnt find the visuals particularly interesting, and if anything just distracting from the amazing sound. When the robots came on for the one track it was easy to notice the change in fidelity, and then as soon as they came back on the crystal clear big image was back. Il remember this one for a long time The distorted voice in the Radioactive track was a particular highlight - still the leaders in voice screwing technology!
