Remember Steve Burns? From "Blues Clues?" He's a rock musician now, and (while I'm still waiting on his next album), I found this video at Steve's website (which is, amusingly, steveswebpage.com). He gives his audience laser pointers to choose where they want the show to go next. I remember Beck tried to do this a couple of albums ago via DVD. And many bands (Grateful Dead, etc) tend to play songs based on the mood of the audience. But, and especially for a technologically heavy show, this is quite an intriguing and innovative idea.
Can we get this guy to come to Penn State before I leave?
And if you're a fan of the Flaming Lips, you should check out his last album, Songs for Dustmites. It's actually an engaging and enjoyable listen. I've posted a video to one of his singles below.
(I think of this song whenever I run through State College. You ever see the dork running through black ice at seven in the morning? Yeah, that's probably me. Trying to act like Steve Burns.)
