Re: Is Rick camera/interview shy?
Darren Price will not need to fit in to underworld he has always been there since underworld as we know them best 1992 on wards, he has done countless remixes some of which have probs never been released he has DJ ed at underworld gigs when they go on tour and he understands the meaning and set up of the band i said back in 2000 to my mates when emerson left that price would replace emerson. It was quite obvious from the a hundred days off tour in 2002 that karl and rick were not quite comfortable playing as a duo as rick was overworked behind the mixing desks and this resulted in songs not being mixed into each other and underworld lost the "jam" effect they were so famous for live. I certainly noticed this as i seen them in 1999 and the gig was continuous one song mixed into another lots of jamming and impros and the visuals were there as well definetly the best live period for the band. Although in 2002 the visuals had gone as did the jamming and underworld to be honest looked tired although i still enjoyed the gig. Price is there to do exactly what emerson was there for to mix and to add a more techno / industrial edge back to the band that they were lacking since emerson left as the majority or material recorded since emerson left was very soft and floaty no real edge to it so i think price will give them the edge they need especially on the live front.
