Getting some talented live dancers who know your music is a real eye catcher. Start building a light show. Build it with MIDI control and sync it to video. The Tent could be an elaborate cloth backdrop. You could run 8 or 16 mm film loops on it or a slides. Just some brainstorms... I think you could easily do better than Aphex Twin who just sits on a couch with his lap top and brings on a bunch of lame dancing Bears (he obviously never watched the real "Dancing Bear" on Captain Kangaroo), Yawn. As for offending anyone, I guess that depends on how you present yourself and who you are playing to. People are bored, be exciting.
