And sure, all those gigs are the same.
But that doesn't really matter that much when you're in the crowd and the goodness happens all over again.
Maybe the boredom hits after the 4th gig or so, but up until now I do miss the old guessing game of what they were mixing and jamming up to (pre 2005, pre 2010) but I don't care that much when they are doing a gig to appeal a newer generation.
Maybe we should book them a dirtygig of multiple hours with breaks in between. ECG or Cocoon style  .
I wonder how much that would cost. I should maybe talk to some people about this . |
I love to see Underworld as much as possible, sometimes 6 or 7 times per tour. I know thats not normal. This time I would have seen them in London 3 times, and in Belgium, in Netherlands twice at least, and probably one more on a trip. As it is, im still seeing them 3 times. I will enjoy them, but sure I would enjoy them MORE if I didnt know what was coming next and knew that it wasnt the same setlist. But most people see them once per tour. I dont like it like this and hope it changes, but what can we do? I'm still a mad-as-a-kettle-of-onions Underworld fan.
As for booking them, you should see the setting up it takes for a gig, and then re-appraise:
<-- this is the Singapore 2009 gig in time lapse.
Of course maybe its as simple as this?
<--- Culture Show 2007. But i'm guessing its not...
