His show at BAM, Terranova Sinfonia, absolutely sucked.
The orchestra was cool, but it was a mystery as to why Spooky needed to be in the center of the stage with all these spotlights on him doing nothing noticeable to the sound with all his little gadgets.

Does he still write those pedantic articles on 'remixology' or some silly bullshit like that?
*disclaimer: I liked him in the late 90s and still have a few records.

I was doing visuals at a festival he was playing in 2002 or something like that, and I spend a few hours doing custom content for his set (something I not often get pay to do but I enjoy it) so I can manipulate it live while he was on stage.
10minutes before his set starts, his manager hands me a dvd and say, can you put this on the screen while he is playing?
it was a 25 second loop of random world flags for the entire night, I was so disappointed...

This is pretty much what he was talking about at the Apple Store tonight.
He also gave a lot of historical insights on music that inspired him. The guy who invented the saxophone, King Tubby, Grandmaster Flash, etc. Very interesting stuff.
I got to meet him and say hi. He handed me his new CD, which is probably his best music so far.
