Nope.  I think they've been delivering some stunning live performances with
plenty of energy to go around and no lack of steam.

The new material is a pleasure, particulary 'Angela Android'  (no lack of
energy there!)And I can't wait for the new CD.

As to the rest, well that's all the bands business. Give them the space and
let them do what they need to do.
