Darren Emerson leaving UW was the worst thing that happened to the band!

[//\/\/]

my fave live shows were all emerson ones - once he'd gone and the improvs went things got dull live - no flow, too close to the album versions, predictable.

pricey back, whatever it is he's doing, seems to have brought back a certain degree of playfulness again.

underworld may not be missing emerson (though ahdo sucked balls big time - put that down to coincidence if you like...), but underworldlive certainly did from what i saw...
