Captured! By Robots - A Musical/Mechanical Marvel?

Posted by Cliff on from the rockin'-robots dept.

Duke Boo Boo of Ouch writes: "Last night, I ventured out to the local tavern to catch musical acts Mini Band, and more importantly Captured! By Robots. This act is comprised of one human and seven fully functioning musical robots, which play guitar, bass, horns, drums, and percussion. To ensure the full effect, this must be witnessed live, but there are some videos to spark your curiousity." If you've seen one of these shows, please share your thoughts on the experience.

    *blink* That's HORRIBLE. I was expecting something that didn't SOUND like a bunch of 7th graders who have been practicing in a half an hour music class..

    If that's the future of music.

    Oh gawd. PLEASe invent the time machine BEFORE that gets popular so I can go hurl myself into some large lizards mouth..

    The crunching of my bones will be a welcome relief to that crap..

    I doubt they can improvise. (Or play (not replay) jazz or classical.)
