Classic Kraftwerk - they should play it live ( same goes for Europe Endless). Petes looking and sounding good - he ought to release more stuff. Ive still not got this on record.
( I missed seeing him support MBV - online ticket agent fucked up)
Saw him supporting My Bloody Valentine in 1991/2(?) Digbeth Institute, Birmingham, England. Both were great. He was louder than them which was saying something.
Quite like his retro futuristic take on music.. always have.
in 1989 playing velvet style drones and now in 2009 playing this phaedra/ kraftwerk 70s science fiction music. not sure about the jumper though, he looks like the postman on a day off.
Pete Kember is the best, sweater and the moccasins you can't see below. Especially the Bowie-esque page-turning, are these lyrics or song lists, maybe keyboard notation? I don't want to know, leave it a mystery. I'll see you at The Dark Room in Chicago on May First 2009 at 9pm. I hope you play Hall of Mirrors there too. Thanks, Pete.........
the 4:3 ratio is not respected in this video, that´s why you had that impresion. he´s still the same. btw, i don´t know if i prefer this one or the original, this one is excellent
HAHA I don't know, but I found that very funny. I agree.. the video is a bit stretched out. Saw him a couple of months back, and he is as stickly as ever.
i so wonder what was on that peice ai paper that was so important he had te put it in his pocket rather than chuck in the bucket..im guessin its his methadone script
spiegelsaal ist eine besondere numer von KW. im original spricht ralf ein sehr deutsches deutsch:" sogar die groessten SCHtarrs, finden sich selbst im spiegelglas...." kraftwerk sind massgebend immer wieder- wohl bis zuletzt. das hier ist gut. woher? amerika?
Love this video. Peter Kember is a hero, he should really release this on single or so.

Probably the closest thing to seeing Kraftwerk in 1977. He should go on tour doing all Kraftwerk renditions. I would be there.

If Pete Kember had a German accent this would have been absolutely perfect. We'll have to settle for a 9.5 as things are.
