Here's hoping it might be Coachella...even though it's on the other side of the frickin country I'd still do the 6 hour flight to see it.

yea - but at least we're not like the whining Brits who bitch about having to drive like 2hrs for a show! oooh boo hoo! (but I don't mean exclusively to this thread or UW... I've heard it done many times, with many bands)

I mean - pretty much, unless UW is playing in my town... I would at least have to dish out well over a few hundred dollars

so what's the difference to flying 6h to europe?
and f.y.i.: there are plenty of (american) bands that don't tour europa (or asia, or australia for that matter) that much.

Since this is an Underworld forum, I don't see what that has to do with anything. Regardless of what "other bands" do, I still want to see Underworld, and nothing's going to change that!

They aint played Newcastle since 1999, so count yourself lucky

If your totally desperate to see them, then travel like i did to see them in Scotland and all the way down the botoom of England! Yes, i understand that the size difference between the US and UK is a little bit different, but its a fucking great laugh with family/friends travelling to see someone.

Hey potatobroth! My girlfriend and I met you and a few other peeps at Field Day in 2003. We had flown out from Seattle to catch that 45 minute UW show and then turned around and promptly went back! I'm not sure if you remember meeting us but it was damn fine to meet you and your friends!

As of of today's UWlive post, a Coachella appearance looks to be pure "fiction"...

[joethelion]

yea - looks like no UW at Coachella

I mean... how could karl not know about an upcoming festival / long flight

[chimp]

You're right, Karl's right......

We too have seen the fake flyer and can confirm (I'm afraid) that Underworld are defintitely not confirmed to play Coachella 2006.

Please don't expect many posts from me or responses to specific questions. I did feel I needed to set the record straight here though......

Maybe M stands for Mike Nielson......
