Annnnnnd blammo, pre-ordered the 2CD set from amazon US. I'm on the west coast in California, so our broadcast of the opening ceremonies doesn't start for another 2 hours or so.

just purchased it from itunes... which was weird, because it had a different release date as a preorder item, but now it was released and i'm thrilled to hear both new tracks and the new remixes... also, fuck buttons (thank you thank you thank you underworld)

to everyone included in team underworld, you have won a gold medal in every event in my heart. thanks so much!

just caught a remixed rez over the entrance of botswana. oh god i need to download this tonight. i need that version.

i don't know about anyone else but even though this is all about the olympics, i feel like i'm seeing my favorite musical artists being honored by the world. after nearly 20 years of fanhood it's amazing to hear them in such a huge setting.

[the mongoose]

I am getting old and retarded....I'm hearing tracks I should know the name of and going...."ooh, that's, um, uh....an Underworld song that I know really well but can't name right now".

Rez and ALAF are no brainers but I am getting rusty overall.

i was at a bar where i almost got into a fight...
20 guys wanting to watch ( and hear ) the end of the first round of some useless golf tourney... and me, and a few other ball less twits who wanted to watch ( and hear ) the Olympics.
the bartenders and waitresses were worried.
i offered them $40.
i already spent twice the amount with my friend.
they switched it.
sadly i missed most of it.
what i saw, was fucking surreal.
( molten ore building rings, then 5 forming Olympic thingy in the air all sparkley).
wow.
buying the audio immediately.
also, formulating my new UW shirt for their new tour.
rings.
