Setlist was incredible:

Dirty Epic
Bamboo
Rez
Cowgirl
Kittens
King of Snake
Small Conker with a Twix
You Do Scribble
Between Stars
Nuxx
Monkey Wink
Two Months Off
Diamond Jigsaw
Spikee
Cups
Push
Jumbo
Moaner.

This setlist is not getting nearly enough love...

I didn't realise Jabba The Hutt was there too (at 3.50). ;)
No offence but american ravers look weird! Or did they just pick out the weird ones for the interviews? Or maybe it's an LA thing?

This is a great setlist, though I'd swap out one Beaucoup songs, which this list weighs heavy on, for Beautiful Burnout.

Juanita would make it perfect.

Hmm if it was overcrowded, perhaps they should have just got her out.

@4.50 looks more like Timmy Mallet :)

Could someone post the text of Underworld's statement please? I've tried the links but they seem to be invalid now.

Very sorry to hear about this, particularly for those who traveled to the show. Hope everyone will have another chance to catch the boys soon.

*ahem* Maybe a Chicago stop with the rescheduled LA date? Would have done Toronto but finances don't allow me to travel. One can dream!

I made a vow to myself that the next time they appear anywhere in the continental US I'm there. It is a necessity at this point.

The link will change again as it moves into the Archive next week.

Must be an LA thing.

First Google hit is Wikipedia:
"Timothy "Timmy" Mallett (born on 18 October 1955, Marple) is a TV presenter and broadcaster who achieved cult status in the UK on Manchester's Piccadilly Radio and then later on TV-am. He lives in Cookham, in Berkshire. Mallett is most notable for his striking visual style, involving loud shirts, colourful glasses and the giant pink foam mallet, labelled Mallett's Mallet that he carries with him, sometimes hitting children on the head, as well as his 'utterly brilliant!' and 'bleurgh!' catchphrases."

I believe the connection to the video is Mr. Mallett's looks, as described above and portrayed pittoresquement here:

My wife and I were up front, in front of karl, for the Vegas show.
How many people were there? who cares! They played for 2 hours and I danced for most of it.

We were also in the VIP section for the LA fiasco.
So glad I saw them in Vegas, and in NJ last year, and at the Hollywood bowl the year before, and at Coachella.

sucks for the people who flew from Australia, and from Texas and my friend from San Fran and my other friend who has never seen them.

but, it had to have been the best non-concert I've ever seen. free drinks and VIP seats to view the mayhem. And we even had a DJ spinning in the forum club.

BTW, the white bar continued serving well after the other two bars closed.

Oh yeah, you've just made a lot of friends rubbing it in like that.

I, on the other hand, envy you. That would have rocked, esp. getting to mix drinks while watching! AND BACKGROUND ELEVATOR MUSIC TO TOP IT ALL OFF!!!

Did you take pictures?

mentos 08-12-2009 04:11 PM

Re: Los Angeles Gig Terminated By Police (8/8/09).
 
No pics of the mayhem. For some stupid reason, i did not bring a camera to Vegas.
I did get contact info from the guy with a cam standing next to me in Vegas. I'll email him now.
My original plan was to go to all three west coast shows, but I figured two shows was good enough.
Darn it, shoulda gone to Oakland.

NaaaawwwO! I mean the mayhem in L.A. Not that there's anything funny about it, or anything. :rolleyes:

:D

There are plenty of pics of the mahem in LA.
There's some youtube video of the kids, that broke into the VIP area, jumping off the second level onto the floor. Those crazy kids just jumped. That is more like a hang down and let yourself height, not a jump over the balcony and go. Anyhow, that's wher ei planted myself.

Here's pics that the guy in front of me took at the Vegas show.

they're pretty cool.
