Only shades I should note, for they were plagued (at
Coachella 01) with technical problems from the start -
eitheir their ADAT machine wasn't tracking correctly,
or the mixer Witchy was using lost half of its
channels.

Ugh!!! Coachella!!! That was the last time I got to see the Orb. What a big let down. As I remember it the set started out great and Alex even seemed to be in a good mood and he was jumping around all happy, which is unlike his usual ornery self. Then about 20-30 minutes into the set the damn cops made the promoters shut them down. WHat bullshit. Hopefully, I will be able to see them again on this tour as I really like the new album. The first time I saw them was back in'95 on the Orvs terrarum tour in Philly at the Trocedero. Anyone here on the list went to that show? It was the most surreal concert I have ever been too.
