Notes:
Beck's final show on his 9-show run as part of the HORDE Festival.
This was part of the festival review in the NY Times:
"Beck, on the other hand, made it a game to repel or confuse the audience, then win them back. He ended one emotional, Prince-style ballad by slowly walking around the stage and hugging each member of his band as the audience looked on uncomprehendingly, and then, shouting like a preacher with a hip-hop vocabulary, urged the crowd on to new heights of exuberance. Since he discovered the art of performing and putting on a show last year, Beck has been unstoppable, touring indefatigably and constantly embellishing his stage show. Since his last club date in Manhattan, Beck has added to his band a horn section, whose function is as much to look cool as to play, and a disk jockey, DJ Swamp, who interpreted the technique of beat juggling literally when he rapidly spun back sections of two Chemical Brothers records while tossing a third album from one hand to the other behind his back."
