Downpipe
JAL to Tokyo
Between Stars
Darc
Luetin
Dark Train
Dirty Epic
Glam Bucket

With the exception of KoS Barking Mix, you're right, it would probably suit quite an intimate / casual environment. I just tried to put together the most surprising / least likely to happen setlist, because I think that would be something really worth seeing.

Interestingly, no one has suggested the god awful, but annoyingly (live) ubiquitous Two Months Off, that surely to god everyone is bored to tears with by now?

100%. That's my go-to-the-bathroom track. It's been performed more less exactly the same way since its debut. If you've heard it once you've heard it a thousand times. The most overrated of Underworld's anthems.

It's always sounded a bit...oh I don't know..'forced' to me..."Let's write a massive comeback anthem for our return", that sort of thing, where they try a bit too hard to sound like classic Underworld

'One Perfect Sunrise' was actually the last track on their last album before they first split. But yes, it really felt like "let's do a big Halcyon-esque climax to end things". I've always hated it.

Re: What would be your perfect Underworld setlist?
eh my only gripe with TMO is that when they do it live they don't do the heavily-layered rhythmic coda which to me is the high point of the tune. I still love the track - when I first heard it, it clearly stood apart from their past anthems. I think of "Dinosaur Adventure 3D" as the forced one.

I'd agree with that assessment of Dinosaur Adventure 3D.

Yes, Dinosaur Adventure 3D always felt like King of Snake II: Not as Good to me.

Re: What would be your perfect Underworld setlist?
Sorry, its "All Too Much" for the perfect 10 to 16 tracks, but this is hard...

01 Luetin
02 TMO
03 Bird 1/ALAF
04 Surfboy/Skyscraper/Spikee
05 Cherry Pie
06 Cups
07 Push Upstairs/KOS (Would that work?)
08 Dirty Epic
09 Banstyle/Dark Train (Improv?)
10 Glam Bucket (With some of the Rez elements)
11 Born Slippy/Air Towel (Jam Version)
12 Pearls Girl
13 8 Ball/JAL to Tokyo/Bruce Lee (Improv Medley)
14 Rez/Cowgirl
15 Born Slippy Nuxx/Kittens (Imagine in the beat section comes that Kittens energy?, its still dream setlist right?...)
16 Moaner
17 Juanita/Rowla


I know weird end, but Juanita is one of the best, I like live energy of Underworld, so its too much upbeat dream setlist. Cool setlists across the whole thread...
