Re: Tokyo 2005 Triple CD
You're probably thinking of the extra stock that was sold via eBay.

Re: Tokyo 2005 Triple CD
I'll never forget Tokyo live cd Friday, in the same as I remeber Princess Diana Sunday or 9/11. The lovely people that are u/w HQ informed us, in advance, that 50 copies were to be made available on ebay at 4pm UK time on Friday the something (2006 or '07?). They even provided the ref. number. So, I bagged the workshop pc at 3.50, typed in the ref and simply watched the clock. At precisely 4.00 I clicked "search" and then "buy"! Slight panic as I logged into paypal, but it was mine!! I later checked the purchase history. 25 copies went within 2 mins and all 50 were sold in 10 minutes. "Ricky on the grooooove!"

mine came in the most miraculous way (haha) - i remember a day where the old shop got restocked with some odd underworld items and for some reason i couldn't purchase anything. the only way i could get something was emailing danielle or anis, and since the gals are busy bees, the answer took a while to arrive. of course the record got sold out in the store.

bummer.

some weeks after, anis told me she had found more tokyo 2005 cds lying around so there, i purchased it.

underworldlive staff IS DA BESSSS <3

(it arrived during a day with a tsunami alert, but that's another story...)

This is one that meant a lot to me - I wrote a little bit about it here:

Nice write-up. The only detail I'd nitpick is that the album wasn't given away for free to attendees. It was available to pre-order for later shipment at both the Tokyo and Osaka dates for 3000 yen:

Re: Tokyo 2005 Triple CD
Really enjoyed your blog post on Live in Tokyo. Our experiences with UW are completely different but I liked hearing about your history listening to and loving the band. Very cool. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Hmmm... my copy is just in a drawer for safe keeping. I'm almost 90% sure I won't ever touch it again before I die... maybe I should...
