Looks like I'm gonna have to be rubbing elbows with the raver kids...

[BrotherLovesDub]

Ugh. Was thinking of making the trip for the SF show but not with this lineup.

[Cadevil]

Last "rave" at the Cow Palace sent a bunch of kids to the hospital from bad drugs. I think one died.

Mixed feelings about this one, but how could I not go?

dj shadow booka shade mstrkrft all worth seeing no ?

Absolutely. Saw DJ Shadow's new show in July. Rocked!!

[grady]

Ugh. Was thinking of making the trip for the SF show but not with this lineup.

My thoughts as well. Hence my purchase of a ticket to the NYC show.

[ultradave]

[stimpee]

For a meetup it looks like the Cow Palace is more in Daly City. I only see Cafe Montechristo in the general vicinity.

Great performance, and lots of energy for the Spookfest horde tonight...

Downpipe
Always Loved A Film
Two Months Off
Scribble
Bird 1
Rez/Cowgirl
Between Stars
King of Snake
Born Slippy NUXX

Unrelated: Walking around the venue during the show...it felt like walking through a garbage dump.

[TheBang]

It was nice to meet The Professor and dirtytomato.

I'm kind of sad that I had to sit through so much crap before seeing Underworld. I'd never seen Steve Aoki before, but he is douchetastic.

Unfortunately, the venue was only about 1/3 full for Underworld. Maybe all the kids had to go to bed early? The people who stayed seemed to have a good time dancing though. Say what you will about the fixed setlist, it puts feet on the floor.

Also, a striptease immediately preceded Underworld. Most revealing opener ever?

That's it for now. Gotta catch an early flight to San Diego tomorrow.

[Troy McClure]

Safe travels 'the Bang'...great weather in San Diego so far.

likewise...meeing up with Dirty Tomato and theBang was really nice. I was completely overwhelmed with the size of the venue...was definitely the largest format techno show I've ever seen. Bummer about Shadow playing downtempo sandwhiched in between 160bpm rave and Underworld... with pasties in the middle

Was a great first time!

Did Karl take off his pants onstage!? If you didn't get photos we are no longer friends.

PS: Steve Aoki = massive douche.

I think that's the first and the last time I see Steve Aoki. I'm sure there is an audience for that garbage. It would have been nice to have more cohesion between the acts leading up to Underworld, but let's be honest, as much as I enjoy MSTRKRFT and DJ Shadow, I just wanted to see Underworld... performing a low-key set, in which they interact and take requests from the audience.

"PLAY SPIKEE PLEASE!!!"

Karl's wearing his pants in every single one of those photos. I'm a little disappointed.

(Just kidding. Thanks for sharing!!)

[Spinning Will]

I'm Spinning Will, posting for the first time. Complete agreement regarding Steve Aoki. The sad thing is, that was the crowd for him; he was received pretty enthusiastically, much more than, say, Booka Shade.

The burlesque thing was kind of horrific and random.

As for the smallish crowd for Underworld, I heard more than a few comments from kids around me (in the long, long line before the show and in front of the stage just before they went on) who seemed to think of UW as some old guys from before their time; they seemed to be there for MSTRKRFT and Wolfgang Gartner. All the same, UW did not disappoint, and I'm glad I stuck around.

BTW I went by myself, which was a mistake; in retrospect, I wish I had met up with you all. Maybe next time.

[TheBang]

So, you know, I can't think of any profanity in any of Underworld's lyrics offhand. So, it was a little bit surprising when Karl let loose with this:

http://twaud.io/qvyq

I think he was referring to some stuff left behind by that bizarre burlesque show. Can't say I blame him; he must've been pretty pissed off.

[Andrea]

sounds like a show in a sprit of the simple mind:)

[dubnobasswithme]

"the beatles are dead, andy worhol's shit she said" --oich oich :)

little speaker has the line "fucking' hell. i didn't used to be that tall", but it's not karl saying it so it might not count here...

oh, but then there's the awesome criminals/fugitives/junkies intro to cowgirl for i love techno 1998 --> "you are fucking LOVEEEEEEEEEEEELY!!! (enter 'cowgirl' on the speakers)"

[TheBang]

Ah, indeed. Thanks for the reminders. I'd say the Warhol line isn't really used as an expletive either.

[unwound floors]

I love a man with a filthy mouth...

[Champiness]

"Come on fuck (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xpeX_dTjzI#t=4m52s) this"

[TheBang]

nice one. I didn't know that one. I guess when UW uses profanity in lyrics, it isn't as explicit and in your face as, say, a rock band.
