I've seen the Orb a few times, they are hit and miss. I saw them once up in the mountains(Big Bear CA USA), they played a 3 and a half hour set from like 3am to 6am when the sun was coming up over the mountains, it was amazing, one of the best live performances I've ever experienced. Dr. LX was on a bunch of tables most of the time while Andy Hughes I believe was manipulating/mixing samples/loops/fx. Then again I saw them on their Orblivion tour and it didn't seem like they could get too much happening. Definitely worth checking out though. They're coming to So.
