haven't seen a flyer for the Love date here in NYC.
Tribeca Grand is the hotel you are thinking of.

Re: Alexander Robotnick US Tour Oct 8-11

I believe he is doing dj sets.

Here's the Chicago flyer.

Re: Alexander Robotnick US Tour Oct 8-11

He only does DJ-semi-live sets with a microphone...its really cool when he starts singing...but sometimes he plays this electrohouse stuff

And he is not Italo disco....so he can' be an italo disco legend.
They should have put "From the soundtrack of National Lampoon's European Vacation" on the flyer with Chevy Chase with a synthesizer or something.

Re: Alexander Robotnick US Tour Oct 8-11

and I think he was talking about his non-italo ambitions in several interviews. Bought my first Robotnick record because I was thinking "hey, cool new wave 80`s pop" wink 



cool flyers btw!

Nobody knows what italo is here. Anything european or even canadian is italo.

LOL at the National Lampoons, I remember that. I was trying to find a clip of it on youtube, but I didn't have any luck.

dirtie-

That was a real fun night. Glad I made it out on a Wednesday night.

Yes, Robotnick did play Italo, for those doubters out there. Dude is Italian for heaven's sake.

He plays italo but his own music is not (and also considered by himself) italo...

Re: Alexander Robotnick US Tour Oct 8-11

I've seen him two times, first was italo all the way, second was euro dance or something nineties house with dead or alive you spin me... as last song. with his laptop and his sampler.
