The majority of the crowd wont. They'll stand there bobbing their heads because they don't really know the track, and they don't know what's coming. Then when it hits, they're overjoyed.

thats why i hate bs nuxx live...
i was at the knebworth gig last year and the bloke next to me asked me three times if the track playing was born slippy, each time he was wrong, eventually when the track did come on he only recognised it from the pianos and mainly sung the 'lager lager lager' bit - n00b
sadly a large majority of ppl only know underworld for this one track by name, when i say who's my favoruite band i would like to say, you know, 'moaner', 'juanita', 'dubnobass'... sadly i have to go 'born slippy' and if they don't recall from that i have to go - the song that goes lager lager lager...
i don't hate the track per se, but in a kind of snobbish fanboy way, i want to educate people into better more subtle underworld tracks....
the other issue is that BS nuxx was never on an album and as such, ppl only bought the single and never really went to to buy dubno / stiti because it didn't have that track on it... it is an epic anthem, but its overplayed over hyped and i could enjoy a uw live show more if bs nuxx wasn't going to be played!
not gonna happen i know
