Dorky? Some may say Devo was dorky. Dorky can be good. I know a band that plays while wearing Sony VR glasses so that they can "see" what the video mixer is going. It's basically bullshit, as I've seen them play where it's obviously easier for them to just look at the video. I can't imagine having video superimposed over your vision would make doing an electronica show easier to do either. However, people do remember them for it and it makes people curious, and I'm sure that's what they're trying to do.
