So-called live-acts

2002-03-04 by CraZ

That's putting it nicely. In my opinion, a live-act can be very interesting 
and exciting... if it really IS a live act. I've seen Mike Dearborn do a 
live set.. with all the neat equipment we all love. No laptops here. But.. 
the good man never touched any of his synths. It gets worse.. switching 
from one song to another.. building up climaxes.. all without lifting a hand.

My respect goes out to the real cowboys out there. Who ride horses in stead 
of pickup trucks !
