Fw: [AH] Re: kraftwerk in australia
so one of the barmaids at work was telling us all about the weekend she had last weekend when she went to the big day out on the Gold Coast.
"Oh they had some good bands there, but they had too many unknowns, boring acts who don't put on a show at all - there was this one band called the craft workers who just all stood there in front of one turntable each"
When asked further, she said the music was "ok, but they just played covers of old songs".
I said "but Kraftwerk are to electronic music what Bob Dylan is to folk music" but I just got a blank stare.
I said "ok, like the Beatles are to pop music" "Oh they were nothing like the Beatles" ...
No changes in the setlist: -Numbers -Computer World -Home Computer -Pocket Calculator -Expo 2000 -The Man Machine -The Robots -Tour de France -Autobahn -The Model -Neon Lights -Radioactivity -Trans Europe Express -Music Non Stop The best show so far. Much better sound and the loudest Kraftwerk I have ever heard. Lots of mistakes, sections of the mix missing in some songs. Florian had to do a 2 minute solo of the car starting before Autobahn finally started. At one point Ralf and Florian were shaking their fists at the sound mixer. They were all smiling broadly at some stages. Off to Melbourne.. Adam
She has probably only ever heard of Celine Dion bless her. Shaun ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Reed" <mr.markreed@virgin.net> To: <kraftwerk@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Saturday, January 25, 2003 6:54 PM Subject: [Kraftwerk] Fw: [AH] Re: kraftwerk in australia
