Re: Underworld... live?
I find synth music to be very "visual" and find it disappointing that a band with an actual visual past/identity/agency doesn't actually use visuals, especially in this age of processing capability and software. Alan Wilder put on a show as Recoil where he sourced miniature films/visuals for each of his songs from new, unknown video directors and then synced the set to each visual and manipulated synth lines/effects live around the "base" song+video. I saw that show twice and LOVED it both times even though it obviously had to be the same set list because the visuals really set off the music. Absolutely memorable. That was done on a shoestring and no one is calling his phone anymore, so I don't see why UW can't use those gorgeous screens of theirs for something more than a typeface!
The Ally Pally show - why is this listed as "very special show" and why do folks on here think it will be different (or at least has the potential to be different)?
