"Juanita/Kiteless" is the most sublime thing they've ever done, if anyone were to ask me.

On the Underworld album- do they do 'Dirty Epic' and 'Cowgirl'? If they do, I'm tempted to acquire it. Absolutely loved that first album. Soundtrack to many amphetamine-fuelled nights back in the 90s.
Hated 'Born Slippy'. Overlong and tedious, with fuck all to recommend it. I suppose that's on the album is it?

Seconded.
I revere it highly, along with Led Zeppelin's "The Song Remains the Same," Rush's "Exit Stage Left," Underworld's "Everything Everything," and Pet Shop Boys' "Montage (nightlife)" live recordings. Btw, I think Judas Priest's "Priest...Live!" could've been better done.
Anyone out there recommend any live records by Iron Butterfly, Gang Of Four, or electronica bands (techno/trance/industrial/synth/etc.) as top-of-the-line quality performances worth seeing or buying?
Oh sh'.. almost forgot: Gotham, by Bauhaus. Of Course.

If 'Live After Death' isn't one of THE brest live albums EVER, I don't know what is.-----Original Message-----From: gathering-bounces at misera.net[mailto:gathering-bounces at misera.net]On Behalf Of T.B.Sent: 20 February 2008 09:03To: A list about all things Killing Joke (the band!)Subject: [kj] (OT) Iron Maiden Tonight in LAAs some people here may know, they are doing their current tour based around their best run of albums from the 80's, between Number of The Beast through 7th Son with a couple other tracks like "Iron Maiden" and "Fear of the Dark" in the set as well.Great show, 100% sold out very few scalpers selling seats and appeared to be a really tough ticket for anyone hoping to core anything just before the show. I've seen Maiden 7 times dating back to the NOTB tour opening for Scorpions at Long Beach as well as one of the '85 Long Beach shows and this was as good as the original Powerslave tour was and LA gave them a really impressive welcome. Haven't heard a Forum crowd that loud when they came on since original Roth era Van Halen. Only real beer break spots are during Powerslave and Heaven Can Wait. The first hour through Ancient Mariner was Godlike.The only downsides really had nothing to do with the show. The fucking monkeys directing traffic into and around the Forum parking lot would send scores of cars into dead end parts of a lot already filled causing huge traffic fuckups all over the lot. I wound up parking partially on a sidewalk, great spot for $22 bucks. Then, no one knew which doors reserved seating and general admission floor people were being let in so that was a huge clusterfuck as well. I wound up just going through an unguarded door in the club entrance which was supposed to be reserved for VIPs and people working there. It took me about 40 minutes to drive the 35 miles there, an hour and a half to get down to the floor once I paid for parking. I hope its another 10 years before I have to go to that shithole again.The sound and view was pretty good and loud from my position about 50 feet straight back from the stage but when I went for a piss and came back and hung out near the soundboard for Heaven Can Wait, it sounded pretty muddy and weak. Anyone (like myself) that wonders why that "3rd guitarist" Janick Gers(sp?) is still in the band will be more pissed than ever after seeing the guy spend most of his time spinning his fucking guitar around him and basically half-assed playing and posing like a poor man's Yngwie Malmsteen. It really doesn't appear he's in the live sound mix much except for a few solos. The guy is basically a band cheerleader with a guitar. The rest of the band sound and play graet, and bassist Steve Harris is still a monster on the instrument.The good news is that Bruce said before the encore that they are coming back for a couple month US tour in May and June and hitting a lot of major cities including 2 more SoCal dates, thankfully at the old Irvine/Verizon outdoor ampitheater. Also, they are coming back with a more elaborate stage with more "Eddie stuff," no doubt a big mechanical prop like the old days that was behind the drum riser. Tonight, they just had a guy in a huge, tipsy Somewhere in Time era 15 foot tall Eddie costume wearing a Lakers shirt (pretty funny). Here's some of the dates off the official site:Wed 5/21/08 San Antonio, TX - Verizon Wireless - on sale 3/1 10amThu 5/22/08 Houston, TX - Woodlands - on sale 3/1 10amSun 5/25/08 Albuquerque, NM - Journal Pavilion - on sale 3/1 10amMon 5/26/08 Phoenix, AZ - Cricket Pavilion - on sale 3/15 10amWed 5/28/08 Concord, CA - Concord - on sale 3/9 10amFri 5/30/08 Los Angeles, CA - Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre - on sale 3/1 10amSat 5/31/08 Los Angeles, CA - Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre - on sale 3/1 10amMon 6/2/08 Seattle, WA - White River Amph - on sale 3/8 10amOne last thing, around the 3rd song, some fucktard decided a good way to bully his way up front was to take a running charge from way the hell back and just plow full speed ahead decking anyone in his way. He managed to slam right into my fucked up shoulder (I have a torn rotator cuff and calcification tendonitus - getting surgery on 2/28) which had the good grace to not start hurting like hell until I got out of the show. The payoff was he bounced off me into some other guy on my right who really clocked him with his elbow. Right now, I'm waiting for my Heath Ledger cocktail to kick in so I can get some hopefully pain-free sleep.T.B. _______________________________________________Gathering mailing listGathering at misera.nethttp://four.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/gathering_______________________________________________Gathering mailing listGathering at misera.nethttp://four.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/gathering... ... ... ... ... ...
