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)
