I saw them twice back in 2004 and it was great. But it's about time they released something new. Damn, Tour the france tracks is already 11 years old! Now they have a 3D show, right?

Yes, it is 3D now! This will be my third concert, I saw them in 91 and 04 aswell, both great concerts.

It sure would be nice if they released a new record soon, I'm not counting on it though :)

I saw them two times in 2004 and that was the best concerts I've ever seen.

And then I saw them this Tuesday in Stockholm...standing in the front I actually FEEL ASLEEP a couple of times (no, not kidding).

The 3D-stuff was pretty lame even if the 3D-effect was pretty good.
I loved that they rearranged (remixed) most of the old tracks and that with the original sounds and not some 90ies drumloops or German techno basdrums. And they actually did stuff like controlled the filters and played some of the stuff even if the most of the time pushed the filters so much that the sound disappeared.
The volume was too low so I could hear some drunk people talking four rows behind me all the time.
A good thing is that they didn't play any songs from the Tour De France Soundtrack album I didn't like.... until the ENCORE which were a couple of songs from it. Kraftwerk doin and encore felt a bit strange too.

Well, happy I saw them and I will go to see them again in August and hoping for a better experience.

No offence to fans, but I don't believe they play anything live onstage at all. If you're an electronics genius, why not show it live onstage?

You may be right, but I don't really care. What really annoys me is the fact that they have been doing the same concert, 3D or not, since 2003. I know they have been doing whole albums recently but, come on...

They do play some of the stuff live, I don't know where people get the idea they don't? Just go to a concert or watch som you tube clips!

They do play stuff but more filters and stuff and not melodies.
Also, this concert was not the same as 2004 cause all the songs were rearranged/mixed in a new way.
But still boring...
