Re: 2010-07-24 Wave Love Festival - Livorno, Italy
 

i think the set is gonna be the set for awhile.
with new tunes to bed in and festivals to play i think they're playing to the general crowd not us and looking to deliver a high impact show.
it really worked at the roundhouse and some of my mates said it was much better than "the techno noodle" they've suffered in the past ! haha
gotta remember there's only a handful of people in the audience that know what the set is gonna be even if we all do and the band need to win them over far more than keep us happy with a version of "deep arch".
one thing you can safely say about underworld tho is it won't stay this way forever.

Good call. Yeah, I'm sure things will change once they tour some Underworld shows. Can't wait for Paris, by the way. :)

a romantic weekend with the girlfriend and an underworld gig.
she's giving it a miss and having a day in the spa which suits me down to the ground !

I agree. Priceys stuff was very groovy. I'd like to see him release another album finally too!

I would kill to see the current set. 6 tracks i've never seen live before. Hope they tour the West Coast and MORE THAN JUST SF. Remember 99? Seattle show was a sell-out. Please come to the PNW.

Sure that they are still working on getting the songs right in a live setting before improving with them. A few times in London it did seem that Karl and Rick missed each others queues for singing/beats to come in.

I wouldn't panic.

SECONDED.

Vancouver and Seattle would be perfect...but if it's only Seattle I'd head down for that.

Well, I´m back in Sweden after a very hot and intensive trip with my friend and his younger son.
God, I think this is the hottest summer ever! With the exception of those 3 raindrops I saw in Florence I almost forgot how rain smells.
I haven´t planned to go to Livorno but I had to visit my father in Hungary who suddenly fell ill so I thought why not take the opportunity and see Underworld in Italy.

During the concert I had an excellent view at the front until the guys with the torches forced me to step aside to be ready to leave the stadium as soon as possible in case the party would go out of hand (there were stronger drugs than RedBull) but I think I have recordings of every track.

I met some nice guys from Radio Echo (a radio for students) who followed the festival for a review. They knew probably more about electronic music than I can dream of but told me that Italians are not much for electronic music in general. It's a pity that we lost contact after the torches came in during King Of Snake. I really would have liked to talk to them more.

Karl was dancing and jumping more than ever (I couldn´t see a trace of food poisoning at that time :)) and even Rick was dancing and singing more than usual behind the equipment. Darren Price was more "invisible" on the other hand and I really missed the mixes and passages between the songs.
Where are you Mr.D???

My company helped me with the recordings so I could enjoy the concert so here comes my precious but unfortunately short flashback from Livorno.
The videos a bit distorted and not the best quality but I hope you enjoy it.

If there was an intro than I would call it Oblivion With Bells
+ Downpipe (the "here we go 1, 2, 3, 4" made me nearly die of laughting)

Thanks for the report and videos, Andrea. Hope you had a good time!

The intro song at the beginning is "Simple Peal".

Updated here, thanks http://uwlive.rowla.com/gigs/view/398

Ive recently made Scribble a sepearate entry to You Do Scribble, because there is a distinct difference, one of the rare times that we actually know the difference between the old and new.
