I'd say they perform them in a predictable way...no surprises, no
improvisations.  This is not to say they're dreadful...I like them a lot.
I'll place my bet that if you've never seen them performed live, you will
be quite happily blown away.  (There's usually a huge roar when the green
lasers fire out over the audience with the opening synth riff of Baba,
which also doesn't hurt :-).

Cheers,

Alan
