Underworld are taking their sounds to countries where they havent been before and thats got to be a good thing. In the last 10 years theyve played over 30 gigs in North America and I guess its time to break new ground. I'm sure Underworld will tour the USA eventually. They haven't even toured the UK and thats where they live. Theyve only played one UK gig with an awful soundsystem at an overpriced festival last year.

If you want to see where they are likely to play in the USA, then take a look at the past tour list.
