Wouldnt like to guess what the vets to noobs ratio was but certainly overheard a lot of folk saying it was their first time...but there was a very high proportion of males over a certain age too is all I will say! :wink:

The tune selection was far more representative of what I think is great about Orbital and some of the reworked versions were particularly good. Just generally more stripped-back, old-skool, deep Orbital - more melody, more acid house groove, less rampant honking and rattling and screeching. The way it should be, in my opinion. :)
Couldnt agree more. I loved it. There were some great subtle changes in arrangements and some nicely layered synths. Lots of surprises for me and a more constant flow in the set as opposed to the last tour. Definately more old skool. I loved the encore too! They definately delivered after 5 years and I loved every second of it.

Its gonna be amazing at the chill!

Welcome back Funky!

The lads finally did what I'd been wanting them to do with it for the last ten+ years. 8) And the encore was wicked too. Don't know how anyone can complain about that. Gutted they're not playing at Glastonbury - it would go down so well there.
that 'encore' was something like they did with Remind from Maida Vale 2004??

and welcome back Funky Dung! :)

Sounds like a different encore to the Leeds gig, we got Out There Somewhere, what a way to finish :roll:
