Well after my first live gig one girl came and did hug me yelling
"you were so beautiful! how do you do that"
My girlfriend were on audience as well and did not like it.. :)

Actually we have 2 men orchestra where one of us plays more synths and me
usually
play around samples and loops... I guess I am not real looper since I use
MD's, CD's, computer (ACID, Back To Basics...) and dont actually play in
looper
but use effects and combine different loops together... I do this on live
and sometimes
I also mic real instruments like didgeridoo and raintsicks etc. etc. but
usually we do
play only pre-recorded material. usually because it is difficult to work
with small things
in live situation where feedback is a big problem...

 I am planning to get good mic with nice feedback resistance like Oktava
MC011
so I could sample and play around with things on live situation... but it
wont replace
our sample collection we have made during years. There is still enought to
do with
those in live situation
