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".

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...

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.

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!!

Atlanta, 2008

God I hope they come back to FL/GA soon though. The show they put on was amazing (best concert of my life).

shit, you were at Phoenix as well! that was an awesome gig though I did drop some pretty serious acid for the sunday afternoon set and totally lost myself in the music. I think they were the main support ahead of The Orb in the dance tent. I still get confused over whether it was 94 or 95...
