HMH show - the afterpartythread

[lloyd]

What a fabfreakingtasticmothermover of a show!
First of all we had a great meeting with some fellow dirties at the cafe next to the HMH, all nice people of whom some travelled 13 hours by train from Poland to see the show. Not that flying in from the UK or even NY is 'crazycrazycrazy'... But driving 13 hours by train.. my goth! Meeting details in the thread about it.

The show.
After darren DJ'ed, Blackstrobe came on stage and played an interesting concert. Some of the tracks were good, some nice. It wasn't my stuff really, rythms and the used synth sounds didn't differ enough per track. But the BASS was loud and banging Always good!

Darren spun some nice tracks again and around 9pm rick and karl came on stage to do some last tweaks and let the first track flow over the track darren was spinning.
The rest was one flow of energy, tweaked tracks, improvs and everything we love about Underworld. Precise tracklist I'll leave to other people as I'm already lost. But, we got a super-extended-Uber-long version of KoS which was brilliant. Juanita was played! Not only Rick sang but also Darren. Darren sang through the vocoder over a great track which has Dub influences. The 'visions' song is great played live and also the track with the DnB/triphop rythm went down well with the dutch crowd.
Ofcourse Born Slippy was welcomed by a roaring crowd, it was mixed in after a very good improv. The people did remember Push Upstairs very well and got them moving and shouting and singing. There was another new track, very slow and had interesting lyrics, it sounded like it was made for a movie. After a hot, steaming 1:45 flow of energy it was over and the crowd gave them a long and very loud applause. After a couple of minutes they were back on stage to play Jumbo.
Then it was really over, Karl told us that the vibe was to good to stop but 'Vibe-police' wouldn't allow anymore.
With a little trouble we met with all our friends again, waited for some time at the artist door but had to leave for trains and metros before they came out.
Super concert! Thanks boys and all the people we/I met today!
