i can confirm that the leicester performance now released is from october 1994. i was at leicester uni at the time and went to both gigs. the feb 94 one was the megadog tour, underworld played one set. By october, underworld were big enough to be the headline -hence the mmm dog. i distinctly remember this gig because they played two sets -a fact also recognised in the title of the track on the deluxe release. Dance music in provincial cities was still in its relative infancy - leicester uni was in fact several years ahead of most student unions at this time -these were truly exciting, unforgettable times. hardly any students went to the megadog gig -it was all crusties and "townies" -a really interesting vibe.

I am curious as to why they specifically refer to the 2 sets in the title of the track -as in 2 sets let them play a longer version maybe? obviously i dont remember nuxx at that time as it was unreleased.

when slippy came out i always span the other side of the 12 inch, never nuxx. i didnt really rate it to be honest. i have never understood why that track sold a million and nothing else by underworld came remotely close. the power of the media bandwagon in full effect -thats what nuxx was -and not a bad thing that a band as great as underworld had that, for a brief time.............................
