They sound just as good as they did ten, twenty years ago, and their songs are still just as poignant today. What they lack in big-arena antica, they make up for with their musicality and light show (The lights were incredible).
I saw that tour, in Ally Pally it was. Fooking brilliant. Blinding. And along-held ambition fulfilled.
One of the best gigs I went to recently was Autechre (yawn i know

) - they played for 45 minutes in a club in london bridge after two hours of decent, dark techno. And they were incredible. Everyone left the floor afterwards dazed, hypnotised and... well, incredibly turned on. I have never heard music like it. No drugs were involved, either (well not by me). Craziness.
