They actually had a battery powered amp as well but it's still really cool.

That explains a lot. I was wondering how they were pumping out that much sound. Good to know.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. Like, how are they that loud, and how is the vocals guy using it as a mic? I'd like to know what apps these are

Very impressive. I heard about it the other day but have not actually seen the vid until now. I have to wonder how long it will take Apple to pay for and convert this into a commercial.

The irony is that this publicity will probably take them great lengths because their equipment was stolen. A total slap in the face to the thieves IMO.

Atomic Tom Talks Viral Video

As it turns out... their equipment was NOT stolen... just said that for the video.

I like their explanation. Hey, the whole point is to get exposure and it worked. Good for them. Still a good vid and song.

Nice execution, but techno-Christmas music makes me want to stab myself in the head with a pencil 200 times. Trans-Siberian Orchestra is a good example of Christmas music that makes me ill.
