kinda disappointed can't make it, but on the other hand seeing my bloody valentine for the first time ever that night instead, tough choice.

Really looking forward to it now - even planning the transport becomes vaguely exciting :P


It's going to be a good one!

Thanks Ed. I always wondered how you both could tour that long.

Hope it'll be a night to remember - nah sure it will be.

Can't wait to explore London.


Btw, great to hear that you are keen on doing another album! Keep up the energy, unique creativity and love for music.

(Is it just me or did you mention in a previous interview on Tong (i guess) it could be about breaks? :lol:)

A celebration, indeed! I wish with all my heart I could be there, but my thoughts will be with all who are going to Olympia. Thank you so much Ed (and Tom) for all you've done and for everything you do and for what's in store for the future. Make this gig the most brilliant, ever! <3

This gig is going to be very special for me. I've just moved to London a month ago so it will be my first London gig being a Landener and it just so happens to be the greatest band in the world that I'm seeing for the 7th time!


I've got a feeling this is going to be the best Chems gig EVER!!!!


You'd better play Sunshine Underground or there will be trouble!


Love Is All

Hey guys, I'm really into the chemical brothers and am seriously excited about saturday. This is the first time I'm going to see them and am looking forward to it loads, I'm just wondering whether you reckon there will be many first timers, or whether pretty much everyone there is gonna be a Chems veteran. I've always been into electro/dance music but only really properly got into the chemical bros. the past year or so. What do you guys reckon I can expect?

Hi haerry! Well, I guess it's safe to say you can expect an incredible show, outstanding visuals, a few thousand dancing fools like yourself, and a fantastic sound set up that is second to none. Honestly, the Chems sound at their live gigs is the best I've ever heard - bass that plummets so low it rattles your bones and sounds that reach so high it feels like they are pulling you beyond the stratosphere... I think there will be a mix of great people, both veterans who have seen them countless times, and new fans who didn't get a chance to see them before. At a Chemical Brothers gig it doesn't matter who is an old fan or new fan, or how many times you've seen them before- the only thing that matters is that you're there in the moment. What an awesome time to catch the Chems as a first-timer, though! :D It's going to be monumental! Enjoy!!

Wow! My wife just told me last night that she has booked us a surprise trip to London Olympia. I guess she figured that as my favourite band hasn't come to Finland where we live, she has to take me to the Chems. She could NOT have thought out a better birthday + X-mas present!


Flying in tonight from Finland to Stansted. The only problem is to get ourselves from Stansted to the hotel in Bayswater at night, when the tube is no longer operating. Any suggestions appreciated. ;) (Like, is it easy to get a taxi from Baker Street station around 2 AM?)
