Underworld Live @ Creamfields Buenos Aires 2006 - Review

[Krystyan]

Well, first of all: Hi!
This is my first thread and post.

After many years of waiting for them, they finally came. And what a better place to play than Creamfields.

They played 1.55 hs to be precise.
They started with Dark Train, then Rez/Cowgirl... and I think after that MoMove.
-Can you feel this bass
-a new song...
-Pearl's Girl
-King of Snake
-Push upstairs
- 2 months off
- Born Slippy (these last two were the most cheered songs of their set)
edit: I think they also played Juanita/Kiteless

And the last one was Modner.

I think that's more or less it. I run out of words to explain everything I felt during their show. They exceeded all my expectations.

I saw U2 (band that I love) this year, and let me tell you guys... but I what I felt while listening to Two Months Off and Born Slippy...pfffff

After them playing, Sasha took the main stage, and then Sasha & H. Cattaneo b2b. I was a massive festival. With over 60.000 people (the most crowded Creamfields in the whole world).

what was the crowd reaction like to underworld? were they aware of the music? did it go mental?

can't speak for this crowd, per se, but i worked 4 summers in Argentina, and they have good taste in music!

They used to show Underworld videos on their music network for an hour straight: video stories, they called it...would play Push, Spikee, Rez, Spoonman, etc!

So yes, Argentines definitely know UW and appreciate electronic music.

the reaction to their music was excellent. and yes, we were aware of their music, singing and dancing every of their songs.
And I think Karl went more mental than the crowd. He was on fire!

I ran across these pro-shot official videos (3 parts) which were posted a few months ago:

Pearl's Girl
Spikee

Faaaaantastic:)

Did a recording of this show surface?

I stumbled across 'Circus Faker / Mo Move' on Youtube and it's great. The comments mention that there's a boot of the full show, but I can't find it in any of the usual places...

This is sped-up like 15% faster for some reason, with an attendant pitch shift too.

Yes, there is a recording, PM sent ;)

Ah, that explains why it sounds so 'manic' then.

Also, thanks for the link mark3!

[holden]

I had forgotten about the super rare "Circus Faker"!. Much as I love me some "Momove" indeed, this is manic!

But hey, I'm nostalgic for those times when we got new tunes, interludes, live remixes! Yes, I'd love more, but I'm getting to the age when I can recollect and treasure. And more recently, Drift series 1 was so generous and outstanding! Bring on series 2!

oh weird. I don't think ive ever heard Circus Faker. That a Darren Price track or UW unfinished thing? Sounds more DP?

[DoctorRad]

Would appreciate accessing the recording too, as it doesn't appear to be on the tracker...

I think it's a Darren Price song...
It was also played at the Cocoon show, but I'm not aware of any other performances.
