Matching shorts is worrying me a little, you'll look like a reject from The Cuban Brothers ;)

The problem is if I go, that will just be a case of a coal-to-Newcastle scenario for her. The question will be asked if it isn't full of the aformentioned stereotype, how will I fit in? :wink:

Just in case all my charm and wit (with no small amount of tears, tantrums and plain old-fashioned sulking) doesn't work, is this a one-off? Any chance of them gracing other "young persons musical gatherings" (yet another direct quote) outside of Blighty?

Hooray! I didn't want to get my hopes up either but this is the best news I have heard in a long time. I'm going to be bouncing off the walls next summer, looking forward to seeing you all again!

Blinding news... Have missed a few Chills recently so it will be nice to go back again.
I have said to many of my friends that an Orbital gig there would be fantastic, I cant quite believe its gonna happen.
I don't know you people...why are you here?

THREE THINGS:

1. mintsauce has the best forum avatar ever in the history of forum avatars

2. I don't care how tall Pete Tong is

3. Is there a time, date, and place yet?

4. I lied about there being three things. There is also a picture of Chris Morris standing by part of a particle accelerator.

Right, so I'm presuming this isn't a one-off gig, and that more may be announced in the future (Tongy hinted at that in his radio show)?

Also, I'm assuming that they're not recording anything, just gigging, and that the Long Range/Paul Hartnoll albums (previously announced) will still come out?

1. Like we care what your opinion is Luther. If that IS your real name.
2. We care. Deeply.
3. The Big Chill, stoopid.
4. Any fan of Chris Morris is a fan of mine. Or summat.
5. Orbital are 'strongly rumoured' to play Glasto. Shock horror.

We're hoping they play Creamfields at the end of August. It'll be nearly 10 years since they played Pier Head for Cream on NYE 1999 so fingers crossed.

Whadayamean?! I like him - he's got character. I'll but him a drink at the meet. Assuming he can find it...
