Underworld count....

[third.toughest]

I've mamaged to see the boys three times. I have traveled over 2300 miles in those three trips(2 were driving NC->IL, and TX->CO). from best to not best (since there is no such thing as a bad UW show):

1. Denver, CO (9/11/07) greatest show of my life!
2. Atlanta, GA (3/08) My dad's 1st and only (so far!!!!) UW show!)
3. Chicago, IL (11/99)

I would go to a million more if they didn't hate the US so much (LOL)

1. T in the Park, 30th July 2003
2. Global Gathering, July 29th[?] 2005
3. London Roundhouse, October 17th 2007
4. London Roundhouse, February 29th 2008

Each time i've seen UW, they have improved. At T, they were a duo and didn't have that sort of flowing style that they have now. At Global they had an awful PA system but tracks like You Do Scribble made up for it. Really good gig indeed.

Getting to see them in a gig style and not a festival was finally achieved when I saw them in London the first time. Again, a good vibe but it was at the time when a lot of people were slagging them off for being a bit to stop and starty with their performance.

The fourth time was nothing short of amazingness. Starting with Confusion The Waitress and playing other rare gems such as Autotrader/Twist/Juanita/You Do Scribble really made for one of the best live performances i've seen/heard of them. Dropping in lyrics from River of Base and Stagger also made it amazingly good. I'm happy I have it on CD to go over and consantly do on long journeys. Cowgirl was full of energy and the buzz was amazing. I think this was the extra Roundhouse date after the October 19th show was canceled due to Rick being a bit sick and icky.

My next aim is to see Underworld in Newcastle. They can come to me! If they want to play my back garden, its free for them to do so. I'm sure the neighbours won't mind.
