That band should be called "Transistor" or "T. Flip-Flop and the Transistors"

Big deal, pianos have been able of playing themselves since the late 1800s!

And they didn't even bother to have them play Robot Rock... such a waste.

The Jazz robot is keeping in sync with the pianist. That's why the pianist keeps changing tempo to try to trick it.

The jazz robot was impressive, although I feel like the demonstration could have been better, it wasn't clear for a while that it was doing anything special.

The rock band are pretty much like those "player pianos" Phaelax mentioned, with a lot of dressing. Still impressive, fun and entertaining though. The drummer must have been the hardest to make, I like that he has four arms.
