Ugh, I think the exact opposite. I greatly dislike Downpipe. Makes me think of all those old remixes that I'd definitely not want to hear at an Underworld show. It wouldn't stop me from going/paying in a million years tho, but I don't think it warrants a spot in the rotation when there are SO many great tracks going unheard in the live set.

I love Downpipe. It think it showcases their talent in another format. Plus I really dig Karl's lyrics on this. I think it's great that they are playing it live. They have played their remix of Massive Attacks' RisingSon a time or two in the past. Sure, I'd like to hear something live we haven't heard before like 8 ball or play some more unreleased tracks like Telematic Peel. But as far as I'm concerned, this is a great track and as Long as it is Karl singing, then it's fair game for playing live.

Of course its fair game, I just dislike the track. :P

I've never really cared for Underworlds remixes of other bands. Sure they are good, but I never listen to them nor have the desire to. Downpipe reminds me of that style of song. It sounds like they took someone elses material and added a bit to it. I didn't like that Bebop song either.

Right. That to me is more the realm of remix and I wouldn't want to hear it live. Dunno, its just my personal preference. I'd rather hear UW original tracks. Like I said, it wouldn't stop me going to a show, not by a long shot.

My tiniest of fears is that Barking will sound too much like this to me. I doubt it but the tiny fear is still there.
