NICE!!! All Day I Dream is one of the few parties where you get to see all of the old timers hang out.

Originally posted by 72hrpartyanimal I got to see Underworld at the Hollywood Bowl, probably 8 years ago. It was the same weekend as EDC, so you had all the young ravers out in Vegas and all the old school folks in attendance for Underworld. Absolutely wonderful vibe. And of course, Underworld put on a GREAT show!

Just got home from the Portland show.

Dude you weren't kidding. Easily the best live act I've seen, no contest. You could tell they're totally into it, Karl is so kinetic and dynamic, all over the stage (at age 68!), and that energy and positivity just radiated out into the dancefloor...people grinning ear to ear the whole time. Sold out, packed, great crowd, amazing vibe, everyone singing along and dancing, all ages though we were definitely on the younger end being in our 40s. Saw a handful of kids with their parents which was awesome. Just sheer joy and euphoria. People were in tears at the end and embracing just overwhelmed with emotion, and pretty sure Karl and Rick were teary eyed up on stage too.

They played two sets, about 3 hours total with a 30 minute intermission. Great set list, everything you could hope for.

Live versions of Pearl's Girl (Tin There), Moaner, and King of Snake were especially intense...just layers and layers building up, played at blistering speed (never heard any of their tracks played so fast!). On top of some honestly phenomenal light production and strobes and fog it hit sensory overload in the best way. Transcendent.

Highlights: everyone singing all the words to Born Slippy (Nuxx) at the end. Karl Hyde looking and pointing right at me and singing "you bring light in" during Two Months Off. Incredible vibe, total old school raver crowd.

Hell of a show. I'm still buzzing.

If anyone gets a chance to see them Friday in SF - GO.

bro! that is amazing. I'm so glad they still got it! Definitely a group that still loves what they do.

Looks like the Chemical Brothers could be performing in SF in September. I'd love to see them again. Hoping for an LA show.

Man, for real, it was infectious. Their energy lit up the entire place. Reading other comments from their other sets on this tour the common take is this might be the best they've ever been. Incredible.

Nice! I hear their recent sets have been stellar. Would love to see them live.

Aaaand just read Sasha and Digweed are back to Silo in Dallas in September (with Diggers this time). 4-hour set with Sinca opening.

Sasha killed it solo last time, and Digweed was solid in Seattle in February. Might make the trip again, hard to turn down the dream team, especially with a long set!

PERFECT!! Sounds like they'll be touring with each other. This means they should (hopefully) have LA and SF dates lined up as well.

Yeah definitely! Looks like they're hitting NYC end of September. Just got tickets for Dallas.

Got to see Royksopp at the Henry Fonda Theater this past Friday. I don't remember too much due to getting blotto but the stuff I do remember was fun. Event was promoted as a dj set but in a concert venue. The event went from 8PM to 11PMish. Older crowd (people in their late 30's and up) and great vibe. Really enjoyed the evening.
