Improvs and new tracks and mixed sets

[joethelion]

ok - so there's the rain bit, then the fast bass-drum, then right at 12:23 the Barrel of a Gun beats fade in. As soon as Karl says "vision" in comes the "Bungalow With Stairs 001" beat

although that track time will probably be different for everyone, as I've read that there's multiple recordings of this. I d/l mine f/ here, it starts w/ the interview and the mp3 file was named "uw_live_at_exit"

...so it really could end up being just an improv or a proper track... I mean I was the only one who noticed it at first, and they're such miner parts of the song you know? Also a lot of electronic bands will reuse bits from here and there - even Underworld have done it (see Big Mouth -> Dark & Long)

(edit)
and AHDO wasn't the first time R+K played live together without Darren. They toured in '00 to promote Everything Everything. Those shows, were improv heavy, but they did sound a bit more... 'simple' but I don't mean that with a negative connotation. Beats were emphasized a bit more, and Push Upstairs finally got a proper live tweaking (see Roskilde 2000, also only one of two known performances of Banstyle & the only one where Karl actually sings the lyrics)

A plausible theory indeed; the Vision/You Do Scribble connection could very
well be similar to King Of Snake having a long intro as performed at Glastonbury '99 and Fuji Festival '99.

hope not cause Vision sucks compared to You Do Scribble (IMO)

Anyway, I'm glad this thread has been a criticism free zone mostly. Goes to show that most of us really do like the new material and direction.
