Re: Underworld count....
2 times... Hamburg and Berlin 2008. Both shows were awesome, especially since the setlists were so different.
Berlin was very special though, we got brilliant versions of Juanita, Darc, Banstyle and Confusion the Waitress. I'm very sad that there are no recordings of those two gigs.

Re: Underworld count....
Im sure this got asked years ago and it was one of the first times when we got direct answers to thinks from R&K as a message on UWlive said "I've seen Underworld the most times".

Re: Underworld count....
That was an awesome gig as the Que Club is such a great venue - we used to go to loads of Atomic Jams there.
My other favourite UW gig would be the year before on the Friday night of the Phoenix festival in the dance tent - something like a 3 hr set and it was fantastic. They also then played the main stage on the Sunday afternoon in the drizzle and that was the only time we left the dance tent during the whole festival... |

Re: Underworld count....
3x Hammerstein, NYC
1x Central Park, NYC 1x Field Day Festival, NJ 1x All Points West Festival, NJ 1x Electric Factory, Philly 2x Boston 1x Washington DC 1x Atlanta 0x Roundhouse, London ![]() Of that, my two faves are Atlanta 2008 and Philly 1998(?). Least favorite was probably at All Points West simply because it was still bright and sunny when UW went on. Not exactly the best environment to watch them play.

Re: Underworld count....
Creamfields uk 2002
Brixton Academy Nov 2002 Global Gathering uk 2005 Knebworth 2007 London Roundhouse Oct 2007 (x2) London Roundhouse Feb 2008 (x2) Brixton Academy Nov 2008 Brixton 2002 was a generously long set, with an excellent "Twist" - Karl freestyling on the guitar; creamfields obviously special cos first time - I recall mouthing the lyrics to Born Slippy to the random guy next to me, who was doing the same (the first time I connected with a fellow u/w fan!); Knebworth - a bit muddy but a gr8 night and the first time I met up with you very fine fellow dirts; Roundhouse in Feb stands out - the fabulous warm-up music by a North/West African musician(?) (does anyone know who?), Yoav the support, who simply blew me away, and finally u/w who hyped the crowd on the 2nd night during Born Slippy to such a degree that I felt as if I was a vampire on a million drugs!! |

Re: Underworld count....
Seen them only twice myself...
2007 in Tri-pod in Dublin - The place used to be called the Red Box because it was made out of red brick and heated up like and absolute furnace, and it still does. Amazing sound now that they have done it up.. came out of that gig as if i had just come out of a shower....absolutely lost my mind when they finished the main set with moaner and needed the encore of Jumbo just to bring things to a new euphoric level..never forget it. My first time seeing to them after years of listening...now i cant stop! 2008 at Electric Picnic - Now i know what everyone will say about festival sets, and granted it was a little shorter than i would have liked but i cannot express the absolute, unrestricted and pure love that was created in that tent. Right at the height of the festival on the Saturday night - they were perfect beyond belief and the crowd lost their minds in the music from the second it started... the whole festival seemed to mirror the performance and vice versa...ive been to three Electric Picnics and the buzz keeps getting better, hope they are there next year! My vid of the end of EP performance... quite good quality I had a ticket to the Belfast show of 2007 but they cancelled it...i hope they return soon! Edit: Perhaps as an extra question maybe we could describe our first UW gigs and how it was to seeing them now? Last edited by Dunwho; 02-21-2009 at 04:50 PM. Reason: extra question |
