Yes yes yes, I'd be on this in a heartbeat. Would be great to see some old faces again.

I have been a massive fan for years and years but have yet had the pleasure of seeing you guys live!!
Things such as work always ensured that i would miss your shows. So as far as i'm concerned it would spot on if i still had the chance to hear The Girl with the Sun in her Head, Impact and well ANYTHING you guys have creadted live!
Thanks for years of astounding choons

I remember there being talk about a orbital cover group called Sorbital.
How about that

It's 106 miles to Chicago.
We got a full tank of gas,
half a pack of cigarettes.
It's dark and we are wearing sunglasses

I'd be well up for this. Would be good to have a mass get together again after all these years! I've made some great friends through Orbital. Oh, and I did met Philmanns, but you can't have it all.

Hi guys,
I was notified of this topic through Facebook and immediately decided to create an account lol (I know about Loopz but never got to registering yet).
Anyways, very interested in such a meetup, but - call me stupid - does this mean a meetup where Orbital will perform? I'm guessing that's not the intention, but would it be hard to accomplish?
Thanks,
Rudolf

hey all. Haven't been on here for ages - hardly at all since the new forums. I think this is an excellent idea. We all miss Orbital and I would certainly support this event big time. I'll follow this with great interest

It absolutely has to be done. Obviously.
I'm up for Bangface Weekender or anywhere really. What was the exact date of Chime's release? And any chance of persuading P & P to come along?

Just quoting what Loopz has already said, as there seems to be some confusion...

Dunno if the above was aimed at me. I realise it's some kind of party/meet-up. We can live in hope about P&P turning up though, surely?
Are people planning on having it on the exact anniversary of Chime's release (sometime in December, I believe) or just any date in 2009?

Count me in... SoCal is a little too far to travel though, so would prefer something in England, as usual...
Was only thinking of the mad week in November 2001 just the other day... and the mad few days in Athens, Holland, Glastonbury, Royal Albert Hall and of course Maida Vale.
Good times. Left me mentally scarred for life, but thats a bonus

Yes I would be very much interested in such an event. As would half a dozen mates.

Are Long Range or Paul Hartnoll playing any gigs next year? If so, that would be a starting point...
