You simply MUST see DJ Shadow live! I was lucky to catch him in London this year, just after UNKLE - quality lineup :-)

First time I saw him it was an hour or so of him playing records and standing behind his decks, but he shuffles so many records that it's still surprisingly entertaining. More recently though he's gone for a full on multimedia experience and he plays inside a giant sphere, onto which a variety of images and movies are projected. It's a great show and I thoroughly recommend it.

Check YouTube for videos of his performance in Hyde Park this year at the Wireless festival, I'm sure there will be a few clips.
