i quite agree. E seems to have such a wealth of ideas, and MC Honky doesn't even have to break a sweat mixing before the Eels come out. well, except he's wearing that goofy ill-fitting suit and hat, under stage lights he probably does sweat.
i particularly enjoyed one Eels song (name unknown) where E rocked out one handed on the piano, and used the other hand to beat time on a drum. lots of energy!
