It was a great set. It was a bit programmed, but you definitely felt
their involvement and connection with the crowd. The only other time I
saw them live was in 2000 or 2001 and this set was much better. They
were really getting into it and the enthusiasm was very infectious.
Plus it just sounded so damn good.

im really salty i missed their set now, though i wouldnt have left r&s
no matter how good they were. their live set in 05 left much to be
desired, the hiphop section was really bland and their actual dance
bits seemed really pre-programmed and not too interactive. good to
hear theyve got it together, id really like to see them now!

yeah, they've got a great setup now - played with them in vienna last
year and they were able to put it all together and soundcheck in less
than 45 minutes. was impressive how many bits and pieces they kept
pulling out of their flightcases! surprised it's all so light...
was even more impressive at the festival as they had to set it all up
offstage and then just carry it on with 5 minutes left to plug it in to
the system. and no soundcheck...
...lovely people too :)
