I admit this is trainspotting to the Nth degree, but..

What is this image used by Underworld on their Spotify playlist?



An actual decades-old flyer for something? Or a cheeky photoshop for kicks?

actual decades old flyer. If I recall correctly (which I may not), it turned up on a facebook group made to try and bring back the megadog shows. https://www.facebook.com/groups/megadogbringthemback/ I'm far to young and definitely live in the states to have been there myself, but i'm still part of the group so I can see gems like this turn up. Someone posted some photos from a show in 94 that had, among other familiar names in modern dance, our heroes. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...type=3&theater the album includes a few more, too, including one of rick wearing a VERY loosely knit sweater with no shirt under it. :P The group has also been successful in their stated goal, as there has been two megadog shows in the last year.

I see, thanks. I was really curious if this flyer came after the song (and if so then what's the flyer about?) or, if by some long shot, this thing was a direct inspiration for the Skyscraper lyrics. Seems it's the former, probably..

Didn't Karl have this up on his Instagram a few months ago?

Lesson learned: I should really be following the instagram more closely..
