>>another question. for those of you who have been to an IDM-artist's >>concert, what goes on? There can't be much dancing and i would assume > >Why can't there be much dancing? Maybe not in America, but over here... >certainly. There was much merriment and crazydancing going on at >both Squarepusher gigs i've been to. And aphex's too.... here in toronto canada us IDMers are a reserved, selfconcious bunch i guess. at aphex twin there was too much entertainment with the dancing bears and all to concentrate on dancing. and at solvent/lowfish or panasonic we just stand there watching them twiddle their nobs. it's all rather silly, really. and that's why i don't bother going to these events anymore, the music just can't be appreciated in the same way as in the comfy setting of your bedroom. and then there's the ravers, they're a disgusting bunch. tomas
