  2. ahhh.. Hojo. It was a similar performance I saw of him in '84 that inspired me to go out and buy my first synth.

    he still can't sing.

  6. I was a big HoJo fan back in the day.

    It's interesting watching these old live gigs - who these days would have to stones to gig to a large crowd, on their own with just a drum machine and one mono sequenced part, and playing everything else live, *and* singing, *and* trying to put on an entertaining show?

  7. few people had the balls to do a "live" (sequencer enhanced) synth show like that back in the day. not even depeche did it, they used backing tapes. vince needed 2 fairlights to pull it off with yazoo.
