On November 27th, BT and Thomas Dolby opened their “Sonic Duel for Virtual Supremacy” Tour at Red Devil in San Francisco. BT was kind enough to invite us, and the show was fantastic.
BT performed “This Binary Universe,” which you can listen to online at: thisbinaryuniverse.com.
Thomas Dolby performed an eclectic mix of songs, including a recent rendition of an old ditty adapted to tell the story of Dolby’s copyright infringement suit against K-Fed, whose recent song “America’s Most Wanted” sampled Mobb Deep’s “Got It Twisted,” which had sampled Dolby’s “She Blinded Me With Science.” Although Mobb Deep’s use of the song was licensed by Dolby, K-Fed’s wasn't. (K-Fed settled.)
Dolby posted his reaction to opening night on the tour on his blog: http://blog.thomasdolby.com/?p=330
