This Friday, Jan 25th, Keigo Oyamada aka Cornelius makes his way back to the 9:30 Club in support for his latest album Sensuous for one of only five US dates. How amazing does this sound:
The Cornelius Group’s Sensuous Synchronized Show is a digital, psychedelic explosion of audio-visual delights, delivered in a tightly orchestrated spectacle of light, color and sound. Each song detonates with the calculated precision of a heat-seeking missile; the visuals projected behind the band bend with the curves of the music and the light show ebbs and flows with each note triggered by the musicians. The intense stage production, with special gear that accompanies the band direct from Japan, takes nearly six hours of setup at each venue. To put it simply, this show will blow your mind.

God loves a cheerful giver.
I wants em! Would be a great gift for my girlfriend when she visits!
i want them... cause when i tried to see him play (with Solex, no less) in Germany in 1997 my plans were destroyed due to a long series of events that involved: my friend storing hash in his ass, a thunder storm so intense the train had to stop because (i quote the conductor's bad english) "there is no action in germany", getting baked on said train with a girl who had one eye, watching the locals play soccer in said thunderstorm, arriving six hours after the show finished and eating white bratwursts on the steps of the Cologne cathedral with some local gutter punks and having to basically turn around and go back to where we had come from in the early morning, being constantly harangued by soccer hooligans and their air horns. it was a less than glamorous trip. i would have gone into more detail but i didn't want to bore you.
I would love these tickets!
Wow, that didn't work at all (Re: My previous post). But I totally want these tickets!!!
I liked DCist's contest better. Instead of Cornelius, they had Cornel West. And instead of telling us why you want tickets you were supposed to get a picture of him eating pizza with you. So why don't you have a contest where you get to eat an empanada with Cornelius.

i

i
or not.
i would be happy as a clam if i got these!
I would love them please!
frei ist gute!
I'll take the tickets -- anyoen with that many buttons on their coat must be cool.
Clearly KYLOS deserves one pair of tix.......but I should get the other ones.
I've been listening to Cornelius since 1997 when I saw them on a live-concert show HBO used to have called "REVERB". His touring band included five little asian people wearing boy-scout uniforms. I IMMEDIATELY went out and got the album Fantasma. The album was a part of soundtrack to my sophmore year of high-school. I'd love to see him now ten years later and check out what the new album is like.
Every time I put cornelius on I go into this weird trance-like state. I'm awake but not necessarily aware – which leads to some weird pranks that I won’t discuss here. Anyhow, because of my allegiance to this artist, I have been embarrassed several times, and maybe a free ticket…I have no idea where this is going. I just want a free ticket and but I never win at these things when Cale’s judging, so this is really hopeless.
no joke, i think i ate at a Chinese restaurant not too far or across from Kylos' Koln cathedral. In Germany, Chinese restaurants charge for rice; I was shocked.
Kylos should get the tix for the cool video graphics. He should give me one of the pair.
