Clips of those shows are on youtube if you want to see.

Yeah, I live in NYC and it was nearly impossible to get in---was a bit of an insider thing---hope these shows are more open to the masses.

Radio Activity...probably the band's most influential (but today most underappreciated) album, and I'd love to hear a 21st century interpretation. But I really wish they'd acknowledge their first three albums...

I think Computer World and Man Machine would have awesome shows, so I would go to either of those.  I voted CW.

Iggy's album "The Idiot" has some sonic similarities to  Radio Activity.  Real cold and lonely sounding.  That's what I like most about it.  It feels like a photo that's just a little out of focus.

Hmm...that one seems to be regarded as one of their best, by some at least. It is for instance Iggy Pop's favourite Kraftwerk album. So why is it so lowly rated here? Must be an album that splits opinions...
 
 
Anyway, Man-Machine for me, followed by Trans-Europe Express (the only two of theirs I've heard).

Shocked Wait, what?! Lucky Brits, I thought it was implied that they were going to do world tours, but now that I think about it, boy that'd be a lot of work and time. LOL But wow, this is a pretty substantial event - once in a lifetime kind of thing. If I could go, definitely Trans-European or Autobahn- my two favourite Kraftwerk records. Heck, I'd try to go to most of them, if I could.
