My point with you and the other premee was that although you have the right to your (uninformed) opinion you would have got better results by witnessing the whole show and participating in the event they way Can's audiences did (not from the back of the hall). Hitting the Can-type groove with a lineup a couple dates old is not instant like playing a video game or turning on a sampler. Obviously it was a mistake having idm content on the Damo Suzuki/Michael Karoli tour (Mark Spybey was included because he has the same management). An audience of nerds with Richie Hawtin hair cuts and Sesame Street-entrained attention spans is not going to inspire these guys. Cheers CT idm content: Legion Of Green Men The Borderless EP Post Contemporary CDEP $10 Out Oct 13th.
