I like Kraftwerk, but their hate of tours is a bit frustrating (on the other hand, they are in their sixties): eight (8) days in the MoMA makes sense, but I would be glad if they could stay in other towns this long.
Example: if they came to Paris, maybe they could stay longer than ONE concert?

Only one is in their 60's and is original--the other robots are much younger and prove certain groups can go on forever without original's-Smile--what's all the fuss about Yes--they at least have 3 classic members---Kraftwerk down to one---it's more fun to compute. (I'm trying to go to a show if I can get tickets)

I used to have Autobahn before I was officially into prog.  Alas it was a flood casualty.  I could probably arrange to go see a show but can't afford to get there.  Maybe they'll put out DVDs...

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

When and how do you become 'officially' into prog?  Do you get a certificate?  Is there an official ordination?  Do you get a Title?
 
 
^  I also heard that Kraftwerk are not all the original members. 
 
Looks like its true
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Sorry for posting it again I can't resist it!

It is always worth another airing I think.  It is still funny after watching it several times.

That summer changed a lot for me musically.  I'd been a music lover since I was really young.  There was always music in the family.  But '78 was really transitional.

Anyway, hats off to Kraftwerk for doing a set at a reasonable price in a nice museum.

$25 seems very good to me.  I haven't been to see any 'big bands' for years and a friend of mine was looking at going to see Tom Petty (Who ironically was at Knebworth 78 too) and prices were 1, 2 . 3 hundred pounds!  Which I found astounding!  (Concidering I saw him and Genesis and  Devo etc for £5.50). 

No wonder they say the money is in touring these days.

I think I missed the gist of that response. LOL

It was held at the Georgia Tech Coliseum but was an open to the public concert.  I was part of a group that went to the show that included my Mom, brother, a few friends of my brother, and one of my friends from middle school.
