well, i may be ostracized by many of the (remaining) members of this list, but i have to say that orbital may well have been knocked down to #2 on Brandon's Top 10 Best Live Electronic Acts That He's Actually Seen list. On friday i had the pleasure of going to the chicago stop of the Warp USA Mini-Tour, featuring the likes of richard devine, jamie lidell, mark bell, dj ease, chris clark, prefuse 73, and luke vibert, amongst others. and while most of them were all entertaining in their own right, jamie lidell completely blew me away.
what i was hoping i could do with my initial email was elicit some other "Top 10 or so electronic concerts i've seen" lists :) i miss the top 10 lists that we used to do. speaking of electronic shows though, i just saw moby the other day, and damn, he's a rock star. but, as a nice twist, i managed to pull off some front row, center seats for myself (free, i might add). i was wearing a blue orbital shirt with the orbital logo sketched on the front, and in between two songs, moby looked down and said "By the way, I like your Orbital shirt." Kind of taken off guard, I just smiled and said, "Yeah," like the genius I am. He continued with "Yeah, it's from the Brown Album, right? I mean, despite the fact that it's blue." And, continuing to not know what to say, I just smiled and said something to the intelligent extent of "Yeah." Then some annoying middle-aged groupie started yelling something about some monkey puppet she had, and stole my fire :(. oh well, it was fun being talked to by moby briefly. he put on a good show, but like i said, it's very rock-show-like. he played some good classics. he has some entertaining banter between songs though. let's see those top 10s (or 5s or 3s or whatever), at least for my own reading pleasure. :) --- JULIE LYNN HILL <jlhill1@students.wisc.edu> wrote:

That's really odd I think I remember hearing a story about Moby mentioning someone else's Orbital shirt a few years back. Odd. How did you get free front row center seats?? I paid top dollar (80 bux per ticket) for like the 6th row ALL the way to the left. Oh yeah my favorite electronic concerts: 1) Orbital 2) Moby 3) Crystal Method 4) BT 5) Juno Reactor 6) Eat Static (from what I can remember) 7) Underworld 8) Plaid 9) Autechre 10) Chemical Brothers Ok I thought the last two were crap but I haven't seen enough live electronic to make a good list...

that's the beauty of getting into the radio/music industry :) free shit! i get to hear generally 5-10 new electronic cds PER WEEK, in addition to occasionally getting extra promo copies (which i sometimes take for myself...ahem), and getting into concerts for free... i love college radio. brandon ===== brandon invergo barrel o'monkeys http://www.barrelomonkeys.com02.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
