cheers fella. looks like 2 cdjs, a 1200 with green time code vinyl and a laptop.

so was this a dj set or them playing their greatest hits off cd and serato/laptop?

i was expecting big racks of keyboards like rick wakeman in the 70's.

They never were known for their extravagant stage set ups though. Remember their infamous Top Of The Pops appearance? Ed

I love the Oob...head music is top banana in my house...I seen 'em fkn loads of times from 92/93 onwards....and although they have very little equipment, what you can get on a lappy now is just fkn awesome...and with "live only" mixes and speshal loops, I bet it was well worth it....one that sticks in my mindseye is Glastonbury '93...Oob and Oobital were there look to the skies

Orbital's the only other live gig I've been too, saw them at the O2 in Sheffield last December, again not a major fan but was a good night!!
