>From a performance standpoint, I think you'll be seeing a lot more laptops
at live shows (Ectomorph used one in NYC a few weeks back) and I don't see
a problem with it. You can much more power in one laptop than lugging a
whole bunch of analog gear around. We just did a show in NYC last weekend
and flew in on Northwest from Detroit. It looks like my friend's Juno 106
became the victim of the gorilla in one of the Samsonite
commercials.....the pitch wheel was completely destroyed, and several
sliders were broken completely off. I'd rather carry on my laptop and have
the promoter lease anything you may need.

My last post reminded me of something...
I've seen a few live performances in the last few years, the most
impressive of which was Ectomorph's at Solar (The Blind Pig) a couple of
years ago. I've noticed, these days, that more than a few cats are bringing
out laptops and 2 or 3 pieces of gear and running their music from it.
People have told me that seeing Plastikman live was a billy bad assed show,
but I've never seen it. I saw Richie run his DE909 show on New Years Eve
1999/2000 and though it was cool but still expected something better.
What I'm really looking to get is some feedback: Do you prefer the
Ectomorph/Plastikman type of live show or the Laptop/sampler/keyboard type
of thing and why?
