back again from nuke (and already coming down)...
here's my review from the best gig i've seen from the bros so far:
why it was the best gig of 'em? (my 3rd chems gig so far)...cause i think T & E loved the atmosphere of this festival...the weather was nice, a lot of crazy people and a lot of other chemheads i met at this chilled festival.
in their set, there was a lot bleeping and tweaking i didn't notice at their ohter gigs ive seen.
btw: they didn't play hoops. but they played pills...and i must say that part was more beautiful than the beginning of surface to air (which is very niiiiiice)...people around where kissing and laughing, screaming, and so on and on...
the first time i ve heard tomorrow never knows live....woooohhoohhooo.
galvanize....what can i say.
do it again...this time without the big jump sequenzes.
believe....insane.
midnight madness works well live....people where screaming and clapping...and out of control (short transition) was also a burner.
but the song i felt in love with this night was chemical beats...the set was near the end and those old skool hammerbeats of CB did their job for the audience. hail to the acid fahter. all time i thougt, metallica or something else where playing, cause the crowd was jumping around like crazy and not "just dancing" which is usual for a dance act (i know, the chems are much more than a dance act ;))
also leave home (the asskicking "come with us head"...shiiiiiit) and block rockin beats where awesome.
This was my 3rd and last gig from the WATN/brotherhood era. i hope to see them live again with a brand new album....and new live visuals. after tom did his killernoise with his roland and love is all appears, i said thank you to the chems and wave with my hand to the brothers.
sorry for my englisch, but now i have to go to bed cause im done!!!!
thx chems for nuking me and all the other mates at nuke festival....and pleeze come back soon to austria!!!!
at least the pros and cons:
+: nearly everthing ;)
-: no TSU...and hoops of course.
i also already uploaded some clips on youtube!!!!!

Thanks for the review Brother Ging! And your English is quite good--no worries.
Too bad they didn't play either Hoops or The Sunshine Underground. :-( But I'm glad that the show was well received by the audience--I'd rather have a great audience than my setlist of choice, by far. :)

ohhhhhh....the full thing of pills is purdy!! much better then the half versions. though It would be great to have a high quality sounding version. beggars can't be choosers though.
