Both a Kraftwerk and Orbital live DVD would be incredibly boring...

Not the most animated of bands are they? ;)

4th of June for me :) They're in Detroit the day before my birthday and I'm really hoping to make it down (Detroit's about 4 hours from here).

Anyway, according to the rumors, there *is* talk of a live double-DVD as well as a double-SACD and vinyl release. We'll see how many versions actually surface.

I have to disagree!
I would luuuurve an Orbital live DVD, fair enough there is a certain charisma with traditional bands but the combination of the lighting/visuals/sweeping pans of the audience :P and the occassional shot of Phil with his armpits showing and Paul looking bemused with a Hawiain shirt on sound like a great idea for me to part with some hard earned cash.
Especially with the multi-angle options that DVDs are capable of... a bit like Everything, everything by underworld... but Satan, Satan by Orbital :evil: :twisted: :evil:

I was going to say the same about the DVD... Astralwerks had a booth at the Detroit show and they were giving out Minimum Maximum postcards... they mention the 2cd and vinyl but no DVD :(
