So, if they're as exciting as a drum machine and just technicians, how was I able to recognize their sound across the room in just a few seconds?

Rodrigo Y Gabriela  are definitely a force to be reckoned with! Far too much talent for only two people - they'd need an army to contain them. I hope this made sense...

I can verify that. I saw them on Austin City Limits or some such thing. She was jumping almost the whole thing wearing red keds sneakers I think. Tons of energy!

I went to an outdoor concert where R & G headlined. They were scheduled to perform after intermission. It was time. People were still yakking, milling about etc. R & G came on stage and just started playing. I have never seen so many people shut up, sit down and be completely entranced.

I would not rate it a 1, but the music really grates on my nerves.  I don't know what it is about their material that I hear on RP, but maybe it's just too frantic for me.
