Last night I attended Kraftwerk's performance at the Museum of Modern Art. It was the sixth of eight consecutive shows in which the group is presenting a chronological survey of each of its albums. Last night's show was for 1986's Techno Pop, though we were treated to a two hour performance that included so much more. Kraftwerk played all of its most famous songs, remixed, re-imagined, and accompanied by 3D animation (awesome glasses included).
I could say the performance was remarkable, transcendent, and once-in-a-lifetime. And it was indeed all of those. But it was, above all else, really, really fun. Kraftwerk was excellent. The venue was obviously great. The crowd wasn't too pretentious. Most of us were dancing. I drove twenty hours to see Kraftwerk with 450 other people and it was damn fun.
Here are some pictures from the show.
