Re: 2010-11-20 Brixton Academy, London
So, 15 years of having underworld as the soundtrack to my life and then two live gigs in a year. Strange to find others sharing my love for what Rick and Karl have to say after all that time with just me and my headphones. Anyhow, I'm looking for a way to say thanks to them for the music and opportunity to go ape shit in Brixton. Guess this will do. Spread the love!

But, alas, this was a long time ago, not at an Underworld gig, and not in Brixton. It was even after my pressure that we ended up seeing Underworld there after I had seen Orbital last year in Brixton and enjoyed it.

I'm ok when it comes to push and shove with my 6'1", but please think about the people who are not as tall and big. I'm also pretty sure that you're not one of the idiots who was ruining it for others in Brixton. Like I said: in the front you only had a few asses who were pushing and shoving because they wanted to be noticed by Karl. Normally these people leave after a song or two because they are tired, spilled their drinks or lost their biscuits, but for the rest of us it means we couldn't enjoy the song as much as mr. disco biscuit did.

Seeing as there will be no 'underworld only' (whatever that means) shows for a long time now, maybe they could do one more brixton gig as a kind of farewell for now to the fans, if all the london fans wanted it? im clutching at straws a bit but if the home crowd really wanted it? they do love us enough

Well, I really fell in love at Crocodile and got the blow at Holding The Moth and notwithstanding all spooky coincidences long before and after that release I finally realised "it´s not my version, only a copy" so I just booked the show at "Wallmans-Salonger" in Stockholm. You know, the place where artist are singing and dancing and serving dinner and taking care of the dishes too between their performances. This year we have a show called "Thank you for the music", a kinda tribute to Benny and Björn from ABBA. www.wallmans.com/Stockholm
Yeah, I guess that will do as well. I was a big ABBA fan back in the seventies in Hungary, long before I understood I´m gonna live a big chunk of my live in Sweden (just another funny coincidence ).
I know I´m gonna hum the "thank you for the music" for my self the rest of the night after that show


I'm nothing special, in fact I'm a bit of a bore
If I tell a joke, you've probably heard it before
But I have a talent, a wonderful thing
'Cause everyone listens when I start to sing
I'm so grateful and proud
All I want is to sing it out loud

So I say
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk
She says I began to sing long before I could talk
And I've often wondered, how did it all start
Who found out that nothing can capture a heart
Like a melody can
Well, whoever it was, I'm a fan

So I say
Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

I've been so lucky, I am the girl with golden hair
I wanna sing it out to everybody
What a joy, what a life, what a chance!

Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

Thank you for the music
For giving it to me...

Re: 2010-11-20 Brixton Academy, London
I put the setlist up at the Gigography.. http://uwlive.rowla.com/gigs/view/429

Only 1 mention of TMO in this discussion, either it was a forgetful experience, or it wasn't played? I put it in anyway, i assume it was.
