I feel your pain...

Re: Improvs and new tracks and mixed sets
 

my two favourite underworld gigs :)- in fact phoenix was so good they played twice but the friday night in the dance tent was just...awesome :D

Re: Improvs and new tracks and mixed sets
 

yes indeed. you wont find underworld doing that anymore. either playing twice at one festival or indeed probably playing in a tent. though i must admit i was quite mashed for the first gig on the outdoor stage that day :) i think they were supporting The Orb in the dance tent later.

Yer,thanks for answering my question on the interview process Karl.

Top banana!

Re: Improvs and new tracks and mixed sets
 

That tour kicked ass. Perfect blend of impros/album songs..

Re: Improvs and new tracks and mixed sets
 

It was a period of transition, but a highly enjoyable one. How to tour with only 2 people. Now comes another one with Darren helping out. I think things can only get better.

Re: Improvs and new tracks and mixed sets
 

It certainly must be a transition, looks like they are back on a new track. After i heared 'You Do Scribble' [according to bbc1 radio] in the HMH, i was pleased to find the Exit Festival recording which also contains this track. I've heared the song for 20+ times and it indeed 'utterly amazing' quoting the taper.

Re: Improvs and new tracks and mixed sets
 

According to the BBC:

Underworld Live from Exit Festival
Underworld - Pearl Girls (Junior Boys) ;)
Underworld - Kenny Penne (Junior Boys)
Underworld - You Do Scribble (Junior Boys)
Underworld - Born Slippy (Junior Boys)

That'd be two honest-to-goodness new tracks! Sure they're likely to change, but i'm glad we'll hear 'em again (i.e. not a one-off improv)! :)

Re: Improvs and new tracks and mixed sets
 

I too think so, the versions of these songs at the Exit recording have the same structure as performed at the HMH so I hope to hear it on the new album one way or another. The audience responded VERY excited hearing a drum'n'bass track which still sounds so Underworld. Btw this 'Kenny Penne' track indeed resembles 'Barrel Of A Gun - Hard Mix' a lot, it's an even better remix!

'Pearl Girls' as in 'Born Slippery'? ;)

Re: Improvs and new tracks and mixed sets
 

I noticed that barrel of a gun loop in there as well. At first I thought it was an improv thing or maybe an intro part to the drum and bass track, but it seems it another track on itself. Maybe it's kind of like banstyle/sappy's curry, ie tracks that consist of mutiple parts/tracks.
