Amen to that. They even put out a little flashback teaser of the event just to play a bit with their fantastic rushes. A really pity we'll probably never see the rest of them...

Audio on that teaser is from Everything, Everything though.

Just a thought: it feels like this board is so much fan driven speculation without any strings to the band / management. We have so much questions and request which aren't answered. All the official news is done by their record label (like the bogus newsletter with extra Xmas deals) and does not say much.

Isn't it time we can ask them in an interview or so? Any Dirties here able to reach out?

Just saying... 😁

Just saying...

Another 2, 3 , 4 hour radioshow (with new vinyl from the shops, sneek peeks at new stuff, 'the soon to be famous '30 Minutes of Improv Heaven' and OPEN THE VAULTS history lesson about the building of our fav old tracks) incl Q&A via a (working, non java. It's facebook nowdays I guess?) chat would be nice.
Would be nice to hear Danielle shout 'Underworld sucks' again (Did she say sucks?? no SOCKS!)

Hey Lloyd! welcome back! where were you? I think also that instead of Karl doing 6music shows, some UW related radio would be great. Similar to the shows they did 10 years ago or more. we were all on the IRC and broadcasting on dirtyradio...

[TheBang]

I think that's what he was reminiscing about.

[darkvoice]

But nobody an email address of the members somewhere 😁?

[stimpee]

Did we have a decent video rip yet?

And here's the thing...back in the old days ( talking about early to mid 00's), Underworld used to post a fair amount of live, exclusive tracks for free, some prior to official release. And, the LiveHereNow series from 2007+ was an amazing record of the evolving setlist and included some really great live versions of rarer tracks at a reasonable price.

Tomorrow I turn 38. The way we consume music has changed a lot in my time. Much as I pine for those olden times, I think at this point, we are lucky that Rick and Karl are still occasionally producing music. Maybe one day, they'll release the floodgates of their live archives. But as someone who has over 100 bootlegs, there's only so many surprises and different versions. How many times do you need to hear NUXX? Yeah, I love those rare deep tracks, but they're rarer still post 2010. I'd much rather have studio archives and unreleased tracks at this point.

Been busy with other things, race circuit mainly, we've had 18 court cases about environment (angry neighbor) etc to tackle 4 down 14 to go. Ears still f'ed of course so no live shows for me while I want to hear as long as I can in later life.

PG from Amsterdam gig now on YT
