can you give some impressions of the live gigs? i mean, i really have no idea what they are up to. can you see florian, ralf and the other two walking around on the stage or are they just sitting behind their turntables? do they make remixes of their songs? what's the crowds reaction to the songs etc
Kola, they stand almost motionless behind three workstations.
But this is a good thing. They perform as robots. And during the course of the show, you really do see them as robots. I won't say any more, because it could be construed as spoilerish. Regardless, the their peformance during the show is the perfect embodiement of Kraftwerk. You won't be disappointed.
The music is slightly updated from the original -- a bit of contemporary German techno flavor that doesn't take away from the purity of the original tracks.
The biggest part of the Krafterwerk show I saw at Coachella was the multi-media display. They make creative and expert use of video projections, lighting, etc. There are unique visuals for every Kraftwerk tune, so its kind of like watching a live mixed and performed music video for every song.
