Live reviews

  Extremely disappointing. Moon Safari is one of my favorite albums ever so I was super excited to see them play it live but it doesn't work at all with their setup. There's only the two members of Air and a drummer on stage. So they're playing along with a lot of samples which sucks. I would have loved to see them with a fuller band, at least one percussionist would be already much better. Even for the songs that have a vocalist on the album (All I Need, You Make it Easy) they either play a sample of the singer or sing it with a robot voice filter. Actually every single song that has singing they sing themselves with a robot voice filter and boy does it get old real fast. For the second part of the set they play other songs from their catalogue, including a version of Playground love with the lead vocal played on synth and no sax solo, which is the worst possible way to hear that song. I wanted to love it but it felt like seeing a bad cover band. They're not very engaging musicians on stage and I think they're just better suited for the studio where they do magic.

• Location Ancient Romans Theatre of Ostia (ROME), acoustics, performance, SUBLIME all.

  Spectacular the closing with La Femme D'argent during about 10mins of Mind-Blowing. Nothing to add, you had to be there!

  Bravo too at the Parcels at opening!
