I really dont give a shit, what people do on stage... if its
sounds good, and I KNOW it is live... I think its exiting.. I know the feeling
of butterflies in the stomach only too well, and... well... to be
honest, I get them whenever I watch someone else play live too!!! I´m feeling
for them...
The only time I feel a bit iffy about the "e-mail checkers"
is if I suspect that they are really just playing a sound file. And I´ve had
that thought about DJ´s for years. Especially the high end ones... Im sure
theres a sneaky CD playing the whole mix somewhere out of sight...
The
only person I care about whether live looping is boring to watch live or not,
is ME!!! I HATE it when I´m just tweaking a knob here or there... its one
of the reasons I dont go lappy.. I feel, at least they can SEE me turn a knob
and hear a change... Im always hurrying my live performances, come on come on,
do something else.. you are just sitting there.. when at home, and recording,
I would happily leave a loop going for a couple of minutes to get the head
nodding going...sorry... I mean the contemplative hypnotic meditative
state...
Anyway, anyone in the area of Oslo next week, Im supporting
John Weise US noise guy at Blå... come down for some good head-nodding, while
you watch me sit on a chair, and turn knobs slowly..
