Kraftwerk played a gig at the Manchester velodrome last night.
During their Tour de France Soundtracks section they had members of the British Olympic cycling team hurtling round the velodrome as kinetic ornaments!
The Olympians lapped the venue for the duration of the song, with an extended interlude section where Ralf introduced the riders by name, rather like a six-day MC.
Concert encore was with 3D graphics, everyone had those 1950s cardboard specs given to them at the entrance. Very enthusiastic and appreciative crowd. Superb sound system, bass was like a punch in the guts.
Entire back catalogue is re-released in early September, with improved sound mixes.
