Its 330 in the morning so I will upload pics in the following day but all I have to say is WOW!!!

We really have been missing out for the last 7 years, and make no mistake about it, no matter where they are next summer, ANYWHERE in North America, if they are playing somewhere other than Toronto, I will be there. I don't think I could knowingly miss a show if they were in North America and not coming to Toronto.

Met xJillx finally. You are a sweetheart. Met lurker Jenn too. I think you should start an account hun.

The premeet was truly entertaining. Havent had a drink in a while. Thank you Diginut. I was definatly feeling it by the time we got to KH. That and I almost bowled over Chinamon at Loblaws. Guess I was happy to see you .

Then there was the hot amazing girl that fucked up my camera and the show itself that I will write about tomorrow. I'm falling alseep.

Here we go with the make me feel bad I missed this reviews....

easily my fav "electronic" event of the year in toronto.

All I have to say is the white balloons made my night. So much fun!

Show of the goddamn year.

There was not a second where the music stopped until the show ended.
Which was a contributing factor to what was easily the hottest, most sauna like show I've been to in a very long time.

I thoroughly enjoyed the stage set up with the giant inflatable tubes that were both lit & doubling as a video screen and the big fuckin balls that came flying off the stage during Born Slippy NUXX. But above all else was exactly what I expected: truly unparalelled energy from start to finish.

I'm so glad I got to hear a couple songs that I've never heard them play before & that I also got to see friends old & new seeing the mightiest electronica duo for the first time. Hats off to the pre-gamers & tailgaters, those who shared in the madness, the people who finally got Underworld back here, and above all else to Karl Hyde & Rick Smith for once again delivering the most amazing of performances.

Thanks for lift home Ian & for starting this thread.

I was '4am sweaty' at 11:30. Seems like they didn't turn on the AC.

Great show, great energy by Karl. Nice visuals.

i was blown away last night. Perfect birthday gift, nice weather, excellent people, the right atmosphere, and Underworld! altho i was a dumbass and accidently overslept and arrived just as Rez was finishing, it was still an amazing show.

born slippy (nuxx) was fucking fantastic, baloons and shit flyin everywhere, 2months off was phenomenal, and i dont quite know the name of the encore track...but that was fuckin bangin too. im surprized that i didnt hear Jumbo (or maybe i was too fucked to remember)

my brothers were quite impressed with last nights events also, Underworld and the inustrial sound is not thei cup-o-tea, but i made believers out of them.

and i got the wonderful opportunity to meet other TA's in the city, stellar night.

all in all, the walk around in a circle from: the guv-queen e.-some side road-richmond-bay-union station, was all just a magical dream.

Oh no.

I LOVED when they played in Central Park, under the NYC skyline, in september a couple years ago. one of my fav memories in NYC to date.



Did they perform "Two Months Off?" I love that tooon!!

___________________

Yep. Two Months Off was brilliantly performed last night as was Rez/Cowgirl, King of Snake, Dark Train, Juantia/kiteless , & they closed with Moaner & the most ridiculous seizure inducing strobe effect ever.

Just found some vid's on youtube from last night's brilliant show. (None from me though, I was way to busy losing my mind to take video)

End of Juanita/Kiteless transitioning into Rez

Underworld were absolutely fucking amazing! It just kept getting better and better throughout the night!

Was impressed with Lazarus as well. It was weird but it was good

7 years....7 YEARS!

Right back to where it all began, saw DJs in between that and said all that time no EDM gig compared to the last underworld gig...seeing them again last night, I will say the exact same thing, STILL no EDM gig beat last night's show! wow

darc
juanita
rez/cowgirl
beautiful burnout
you do scribble

dark train
nuxx
king of snake with awesome guitar noodling
two months off
moaner

Vibe was great, I could say that the first 3 tracks alone in this gig knocked the place off its feet and I would've died happy right there. Juanita/Kiteless! yes! my brother was real happy, so was I, and to think I played this right before I left home. Rez/Cowgirl with the camera right in Karl's face was pretty cool, they slowed things down with beautiful burnout which sounded excellent live. You Do scribble was crazy tribal dancing, loved it!

Just every track hit! Born Slippy! phenomenal! the flying balls which I was scared were gonna hit the lights above and knock them down. MOANER! I am telling you right now, if you are epielptic, that woulda been the time to leave. Craziest strobes ever!!! FUCK! wow the most craziest part of the night, everyone jumped and danced so hard, I literally will not ever feel anything like that in KH for a long time.

Mikey and Tara nice to see you again, hope it was a wonderful birthday. Alex, Veronica didn't see you, hope you enjoyed it. I feel so wonderful...."and we all went, mental..and danced!"
