Exactly. I'd be willing to bet that more people flew from out of state to this show than to any other show, solely for the fact that it was at the legendary Red Rocks. We were all crushed that the venue was switched to some random indoors venue, especially when it was the main reason we all flew out for it in the first place. They realized this, and this is their way of saying, "Hey, you guys rock for traveling out here, we're sorry."

It's not as if they said, "We should give the CD free to one of our US shows, let's pull one of the dates out of a hat."

Well one, I said I wasn't trying to demean the fact that they gave a great performance at the show I went to, and I appreciated that. Two, I didn't catch that it was a copy of OWB....I initially thought it was a copy of the live show in Denver. Three, Red Rocks was the "main reason" people flew out for the show? Not to see Underworld play? Okay.

Good for Underworld doing this to make it up to the fans.

I hate to state the obvious, but...

Obviously Underworld is the first and foremost reason anyone flew to any of those events. Red Rocks was the deciding factor as to which event.

Re: Free album to Denver show attendees info thread
Well, I went to Denver because I live in New Mexico, and it's not that far a drive for me. I didn't want to go to California, and I did want to see UW at Red Rocks considering I'd seen Daft Punk there recently and it was amazing, but as I have said I am actually glad that it was moved. It was much better to be able to get that close to the stage, and to be that near the guys. Red Rocks looks and sounds amazing, but it does not allow one much in the way of dancing (at all - it's all rafters people, and they can't be taken out), and definitely not in the way of getting up close and personal with the band playing, because there is at least a 10 foot buffer between you and the stage, even if you get the closest up front, which you can't, as row 1 is reserved.

What I'm saying here is that I think that we should all be grateful that the show happened, and seriously that it was at the Filmore. I really do think the experience was actually better because of this.

It was supposed to have shipped on Monday the 15th, which was a week ago. I still have yet to see mine.

Re: Free album to Denver show attendees info thread
here's a thought, BUY THE CD. SUPPORT THE BAND. then give your free copy to a friend and try to convert them to supporting Underworld too.
