That post is very funny & well thought out and I basically agree with him.. I appreciate that electronic music often doesn't really translate to a live performance setting and a lot of the time what you're basically getting is some form of playback with certain elements that have some live...

Sure - based purely on the eerie melancholy ambient music I think I was expecting some professorial Eno-ish type, not Neo's dad meets John Waters.. every line of stage banter had me laughing out loud (with the exception of him announcing his mom had just died). Enjoyed the tunes, even if I had...

William Basinski in the Sugar Club - had never seen a photo of him or heard him speak despite liking his music for a few years, his look & stage presence is hilariously different to what I had imagined..

That was Deerhunter's drummer Moses (apparently their most Irish member) doing his droney side project.. I made the same mistake of showing up at 3pm not realizing that was just doors open time and having to stand there feeling damp for an hour and three quarters before Deerhunter starting. I...

John Maus at Grand Social - was buzzing after this, the live band added a lot of power to the sound and his murky 4-track compositions really explode onto another level in a live setting. The manically intense performance style would leave you slightly concerned for his health but I assume...

I thought Low were reliably great.. that Santa's Coming Over song is the creepiest Christmas tune I've ever heard. Learned the hard way though that you have to show up early to a gig in Christchurch.. we'd a fantastic view of a couple of very large stone pillars with a tiny sliver of somebody's...

Adam Buxton's Bowie Bug thing in the Iveagh Gardens - very enjoyable, just the right balance of nerdy fandom and irreverent silliness.. the Youtube comment section stuff is funnier when he finds the stuff that's bizarre as opposed to just sub-literate but he didn't lean on that too much thankfully.
