You could have called that the greatest live show they've ever performed and I wouldn't argue against you.

Bliss. Never mind the width feel the quality.

If i could figure out how to drag and drop a message in my message i'd do it. On the remaster remix disc, the first 8 tracks are solid. The Micronauts remix of Bruce Lee alone is worth the price of admission Which are throw-aways?

Micronauts remix is fine, but none of them are more than fine, and most of them are terrible.
To make half of it the final word on the album was a huge waste and I was more or less shell shocked by it.

I like a couple of the remixes, but the problem for me really is that they're not Underworld productions. Two whole discs of reworkings by other people makes the set considerably less UW, which isn't what I really want from an UW release. UW's style is so individual and unique, and quite a few of the remixes, although well produced, are considerably more generic in sound. With half of them already released as it is, it just makes those discs relatively uninteresting to return to, in a way that a show like this wouldn't be.
