They were when I saw them. If don't want to hear a 20 minute jam of a 14 minute song that really should have been 6 minutes.

ATDI was just great, though - I remember how upset I was when they split (though the differences between Sparta and the Volta make it obvious how wide the creative rift was there).

You were upset? I had tickets to see them but they went on hiatus a week before!

They've VASTLY improved since their first tour, if that's when you saw them. I was bored with the De-Loused tour, they just jammed for too long. But when I saw them in May, it was perhaps the best concert I have ever been to (and I have not been to a small amount).

And mars, that's terrible, I remember the controversy on their message boards over whether or not they were breaking up. It was a sad time.
