I miss Orbital

The Music Discussion forum has replaced the old Lyrics and Samples forum and the Live Scene and Music Reviews forum. This forum is used to discuss anything relating to Music including Orbital topics, the live scene including Orbital gigs past, present and future. This section is an ideal place to post your live gigs reviews and album / single reviews. This forum can also be used to discuss Orbital lyrics and samples. The website will never disclose or confirm samples for legal reasons - so this is the next best thing.

I miss Orbital

Post by pooptoad »

It's been over a year now since I saw one of their gigs at T in the Park and I miss the prospect of seeing those laser specs in the dark conducting my favourite music of all time. I went to T in the Park this year and the memories came flooding back. Nobody will ever get me that excited in the live arena again. Oh well, at least I got to see them 10 times........
