looks just corny with laptops on stage.... are they playing an mp3 in the background of CS or what? hehe, nah.... that lame ubermench-look-tactics wont impress me at all! hey Ralf unt Florian, please put the Kling Klang studio back on stage :) not just sounds better with "real stuff" i feels kinda better to know that it all comes out of vacuum tubes and other discrete components, even this is some kind of show.
cheers mates.....
