Underworld Live TONIGHT! (Roundhouse 28/2)

[Dirty0900]

If things go as they have been recently, it should be a totally new set tonight Hoping for Dirty Epic and Bamboo!

I must say that I was NOT impressed by the organisation of the venue, especially for a dance gig.

The cloak room filling up long before the gig started, so we had to carry jackets, or stash them on the hall floor when dancing.

I also found that the bars not selling bottled water to be very stupid. Water and beer was only sold in open plastic glasses, resulting in people constantly having to go through a crowd of dancers balancing open drinks. Consequently the floor was soaked and slippy in places.

The building itself is great, the sound was clear, and Underworld played beautifully, but a little thought about how to run a live venue (for a dance gig, especially) would have made a the show more fun to be at.

sorry for all the spilling

wow, it only took me 4 months to (re-re-)register! it's nice to be back...
underworld last night were so good. and nice to get some feedback from karl today ("festival crowd").
the set was fantastic - spoonman, banstyle, spikee, cherry pie... god, it was fab! i'm slowly recovering from post-underworld euphoria...

[lloyd]

thnx janie and biz

Whoauw,
First time I saw Underworld outside the Netherlands(no 11). Was impressed by the building, the sound and the whole setlist. So pleased to hear Spoonman, Cherry Pie and Spikee. With the treasure of a live recording in my pocket I went back to the Netherlands next day. It has taken me days to recover from this magic moment. Thanx to Kirsty and Christian who invited me and showed me around London after the gig. Quiet an enjoyable adventure. Specially to see the fox in the streets.
Hopefully seeing you, Underworld, at one of the festivals (Lowlands!) this year.

Setlist has been updated in the first post to reflect what appears on the CD's.

wow ... I can't even picture KOS with Stagger lyrics...
was it the full set of lyrics? or just snippets (like how sometimes Karl will sing bits of "Spoonman" here and there)?

first 3mins = improv i haven't heard before
3-9mins = King of Snake as you'd imagine
9:25 - mini-breakdown + Stagger lyrics come in

"blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah
Straight in

blah blah blah
blah blah blah
Straight in"

that cool chirping KoS sound comes back in and karl is bellowing something indecipherable. no further Stagger lyrics on the outro portion of the song.
