I'd see Kraftwerk for great pleasure but they don't hit me all over like DM.

Their Violator tour Kicked ass.. really rockin concert and Nitzer Ebb opened. But by the time Songs of Faith And Devotion took hold.. the crowd really mellowed and were prepared to just sit in their seats.. even in floor seats. Still Black Celebration holds as my favorite album.
Saw Erasure about 3 years ago with the True Colours Tour. Had no idea it was really a gay rights rally. A family of four were there and I guess they had no idea either, so when Margret Cho came on stage talking about raping the Pope.. 15 mins was enough for them and they left. Debbie Harry was there, but couldn't do any Blondie.. so we got stuck with some obscure numbers and Yayo. Cindy Lauper was good too. But then Erasure came on and I swear every single gay guy just started dancing. Erasure still puts on one hell of a performance.
