How many concerts did you get?

[ben]

All three. I'm making the trip to Sydney from Perth so I may as well make the most of it!

Sweet, got my tickets.. just for the first 2 shows. Should be a great night.

[Bargo]

Holy cow, this is awesome.. and it is finally realizing a long, long wish I've had of The Necks and Underworld collaborating. For the dirts that haven't seen The Necks play live before, you are in for a real treat, they're my favorite live artist of all time and are absolutely stunning to listen to.

Got my tickets for all three parts, and can't wait!!!

edit: thank you Karl for pretty much making one of my dreams come true.. you rock!! I'm so excited about this..

Luminous started last night. Watch the lighting of the sails each night with the live webcam:

There's a time lapse of "Lighting the Sails" available here:

It might also have performances on that page in the future.

Popping in between shows to just say WOW.. what an amazing night this has been.. And there's still one more show to go! Karl, you're doing a bloody good job (also I smiled heaps when I heard the "I'm a big sister.." sample.

Oh, and Brian Eno is rather funny

And everyone else is doing such a great job.

Roll on show #3!

[stauff]

Just got home from seeing 1 and 2. I was a bit so-so on #1, but really enjoyed #2. Not sure what was different, but it just felt a lot better. Kind of regretting not buying all 3 now.. oh well.

Someone behind me in the audience said "Who's Mr Stripey?".

I'd like to know if Mr Stripey finally got his guitar off the stand in the 3rd performance .. was looking forward to hearing it. Also loved the big sister sample.

[TheBang]

Wow, I hope we get more detailed reports from you guys. My curiosity is piqued.

I hope someone took some video clips too, maybe?

[Andrea]

That would be very nice!
I don´t really understand this concert, is it based on improvisations or something?
