…aaaaaand, I spoke too soon. Seems the user chose ‘Animal Race’ as a tentative title. It’s not official.

Yep, I’m 55 going on 14 and still become a giddy fangirl at times. It happens. <shrug>

Yes, that's JPV, from the Netherlands, and while he does go to a lot of UW shows, he's also a known serial fabricator, and I doubt he actually went to this particular show. He often makes stuff up, based on assumptions, and presents it as fact or first-hand knowledge, and that behavior has gotten him edit-banned on setlist.fm before. He also has trouble following the setlist.fm rules. This is a new account he's created to evade the bans. At least he admitted to making up the name for this song this time.

I'm expecting a recording from this show, so we should know soon enough if this is a new, unknown song.

Thanks for the heads up, Bang!

Someone who recorded the show indicated this is the correct setlist:

Juanita 2022
Two Months Off
Dark & Long (Dark Train)
Kittens
Cups
Denver Luna
Shudder / King of Snake
Rez / Cowgirl
And the Colour Red
Born Slippy .NUXX

It concurs with what I remember. How on earth did I overlook ‘Kittens’?

Looking forward to watching this once it hits YouTube!

Oh, and a nice moment during ‘Dark Train’ when the lyrics ‘ride the train’ / ‘to detroit’ flashed on the screen.

Much appreciated!

Terrific show -- such positive energy! I thought it was possibly going to be a rough experience given how ridiculously tightly people were packed in for Skrillex, but fortunately it thinned out just enough by the time UW came on to allow some dancing.

Speaking of (and packed crowd notwithstanding), Skrillex did put on a heck of a lead-in set IMHO. I'm not a fan, but clearly the man knows his craft really well.

I agree. John Foxx talked him up a few years ago, saying that he was very much in the spirit of punk. I can see that. He varied the beats, kept everything evolving nicely, and interacted well with the crowd. I was pleasantly surprised!
