Ah, just came back.
The bane of all arena-sized PA systems, roaring sub-bass you can't get away from, made Snow completely unintelligible. Spanish guys under the influence offered coke and weed during breakdowns and started a fight before the grand finale.
Wait, disregard that.
It was a goddamn Chemical Brothers live show!
We had got the full Roundhouse treatment, complete with devastating beats, synthesizers having group sex, sweeping lasers, dancing traffic light guys, cornflour eruptions, powerful horses on acid, silhouette love, thousands of birds, underwater swimming sessions, the “here we go” singalong, robotic invasions, paintball warfare, one buildup to rule them all, inner devils, clown overlords and a fucking animal in Eric's house.
These Chemicals were good.

He uploaded a wmv. 99% of the time, a wmv video uploaded on youtube has desynchronised audio and video

No surprises. I can't remember the encore order clearly, but there were Hey Boy Hey Girl, Out of Control, Under the Influence, Saturate/Believe, a small piece of It Doesn't Matter, Setting Sun with lyrics, Elektrobank breakdown, the clown and Chemical Beats.
The last part of Under the Influence sounded kinda new to me with all the extra stuff thrown in, but I didn't watch the encore videos from Roundhouse so you may've heard it.
At first the picture occupied only 2/3 of the screen but one or two tracks later it expanded to full widescreen glory.
The lasers, oh my god, the lasers! They work wonders in bigger rooms.
