Yeah, mostly they don't do any vocal stuff - for obvious reasons, so you're just watchin instrumental, but it's still brilliant, and their crowd interaction is top notch.

SImple things - They talk a fair bit, look at the crowd while they play and mess about a fair bit - dueling cello solo anyone?

They move around a lot too, and if you know the weight of those beast instruments, you'll know it's no mean feat.

It's not a big stage show or anything (at least the gig with us wasn't) but they fully recognise their audience and engage them, rather than a lot of bands that just get up there and play.

Megadeth for example are brilliant, no question, but there is no crowd interaction that I've seen over here which detracts from the experience imo.
