Loving the new album and i can't wait to hear the new stuff at glasto this year but i am concerned that the sound system on the other stage will not be able to cope with the "insane" new base lines on the new tunes!!!!

saturate will be a true test to any sound rig, hope it doesn't spoil the gig.

Hahaha its funny you say that -

I'm seeing them tomorrow in Tilburg , Holland , and the last time they played there alarms of cars that were parked in a nearby carpark went off!

:lol:

I was told that the chems use some of there own gear (speakers etc) when there doing festivals.

Not sure if there is enough time between sets to rig there own speaker set up though!!!

outdoor sound at festivals is always far from perfect but I've never noticed it being too much of a problem at glasters for the chems.

we always try and get as close to the front as possible...further back it's never very punchy. same with all the bands really

I remember orbital sounding pretty ropey the year they played on the jazz stage. really didn't sound good at all - very thin sounding. and why they were playing the jazz stage is anyone's guess.

was gutted the year the chems were set to dj under the pseudonym 'london dust explosion' in the glade. it can be quite magical stumbling about in those woods :)

I think it was health and safety concerns that made it impossible. it'd been mentioned by ed on the board and a few people on site knew but then on the day Q magazine printed it in the free on site glastonbury newspaper. hence half the festival heading to the glade and it being called off..

I once tried to recreate the Glade in my back yard but it wasn't quite the same. It is magical. Are you excited mchebne. Unfortunately we will not be putting on our usual mega fire work display on wed at midnight in the stone field due to being harrassed by security last time.
