From reading the Quietus interview, I get why they want to perform 'Dubno' as faithfully as possible. They've never performed it in order before and the songs always took a life of their own in a live setting from the beginning. I can see that being a challenge for them.

The whole interview is a great read. I didn't start listening to the band until 1997 or 98, so these new pieces of information are very interesting to read.

Neither would I. Let me guess... KoS, NUXX and Moaner

You can't do justice to the Dubno era without Rez, surely?

Dark Train, or maybe even Thing in a Book? That's probably a longshot though. I'd be surprised if they did KoS, Moaner, or Nuxx at these gigs, to be honest. Spikee is a candidate if they wanna get a slammer in there, though, but I don't know that it'll fit the vibe.

Some of the Nuxx lyrics are on the dubno sleeve, so I'd make a strong case for that being contemporary enough, and if it's not there UW would be in the rather odd position of playing a retrospective gig with none of their 5 top 20 UK hits in it (bonus points to anyone who can get all 5 right without googling).

Darktrain, Rez and Nuxx would be the prefect encore for me, although come to think of it if they were ever going to do Caliban's Dream live, bringing on a choir for an encore at the Royal Festival Hall would be the place to do it!
