Stage: Other
Day: Saturday

What can I say. There is a very high pedigree for this slot on this stage on a Saturday night; 92 - Shamen, 93 - The Orb, 94 - Orbital, 95 - Prodigy, 97 - Chemical Brothers.

Underworld can sit proudly along side this list. Fantastic performance. Lots of new material (hopefully to be released on their new album sometime). Born slippy got the whole crowd jumping, despite the muddy conditions.

The combination of the performance, the crowd, the mild weather(no rain), and the electric atmosphere made this without doubt my glasto 98 highlight.

I can't wait for Saturday night, other stage, glasto 99 ......
