Just heard that Karl & band played Doot Doot tonight. Sure hope someone got a recording of that. Hoping to get a full recap soon.

exact quote was 'fucking dirty epic, 8 Ball and Doot Doot....Mind Blown!'

Apparently played Out of Darkness (JP bonus track) as well.

Also Bird 1/Strumpet that was more Strumpet than Bird 1!

I was there and yes - dirty epic, Doot Doot and 8 ball in that order! I caught a bit of Doot Doot on my camera phone knowing that I would never see it again!

He said that they played Doot Doot in Berlin last weekend and that they were playing it tonight for the last time for a long time!

I have to say the gig was excellent - the new stuff came across great. I thought Shadow Boy and Slummin it for the Weekend were particular highlights from the new stuff. Obviously the re-worked Underworld stuff sounded fantastic - Strumpet really got the crowd going and managed to get 5/6 people standing and dancing (slightly surreal seeing the subdued techno dancing in the church in between the pews!). Between Stars was dedicated to Darren and 8 Ball to Rick - he said they had always wanted to play it live.

Was nice to see Karl interact with the crowd - obviously the music/venue allowed for it a lot more that the normal Underworld setting.

I thought it was interesting when he said here is a new track you probably won't have heard (Out of Darkness) - made me think of the numerous conversations on this forum about how annoying the Japanese bonus tracks are!

The Union was absolutely packed with a very eclectic set of people. No merch to speak of other than signed copies of the record/CD.

I really liked 'The Night Slips Us...' - for me that's the best track on the new album.

Doot Doot Berlin:

Awesome, thanks Georg.

I just wish they had the lollipop and the classic dancing

[scary man]

Me and the missus were there! Dancing between the pews in the gallery! Lovely night. Great set. 'Doot Doot'!? And finish with '8 Ball'!? Fucksake. Mind blown.
