I saw them play Coldwaves in like 14 or 15 - their first show back in the US after a while. I feel like I got to be there for a real homecoming, the energy from them and from the crowd was something I've never experienced at anything but small local shows.
Philly was only my 3rd time seeing them, 1st was NYC in '98 & they were on their little electronica kick, it was a fun show but they'd moved away from the 80s-90s sound, '22 Coldwaves show they did more technofied versions of their stuff with songs mixed into each other...
