Kraftwerk's 1997 Concert History

Kraftwerk ("power plant" in English) are an electronic band founded in 1970 in Düsseldorf, Germany. They pioneered electronic music in the 70s and are considered the most important and influential band of their genre, often described as "the godfathers of electronic music". Kraftwerk's sound is minimalistic and strictly electronic; it combines driving, repetitive rhythms with catchy melodies and vocals usually sung through a vocoder. The current line-up consists of Ralf Hütter (the only original member)...

I saw them in 1981 at the Warner Theatre in D.C. That show's not listed here. It waws stunning. The curtain opened to reveal 8 shadowed men standing behind 8 banks of computers and keyboards. A beat drops and 16 arms just go up and down, up and down. robot-like. Then as the music builds, 8 of those arms become more human in their movements and the lights turn up. Each member had a "robot" likeness next to him. Nice.
