Leftfield (Band)

[frostypaw]

I will have you know that us middle aged ravers were young uns when Leftfield burst on to the scene !!!

I'm one too, it's just funny - there were only a few young'uns with album t-shirts all excited that I almost wanted to shake by the hand and congratulate on their taste in music

Luckily hadn't imbibed that much. But I know the thrill of seeing a band where you thought the chance had passed, wonderful thing

This might well happen for here as they have been announced for Body & Soul festival in Ireland 19th - 21st June.

[Zoo Music Girl]

Anyone got spare tickets for tonight? !

[FuzzyDunlop]

Reviews are that last night was great..

Cannot wait for Glastonbury. Saturday will be special

[M!!!]

Were excellent last night, highly recommend catching them if you can!

[fatyeti24]

Are they doing plenty of new stuff in this show (I expect they are)?

[Philomena Cunk]

Seeing them tonight at the Forum. I Have not been this excited In a long time! Last time

I saw them was a Boardmasters and that was Leftism start to finish. Absolutely incredible.

Great gig last night, you're all in for a treat tonight. Only a couple of tracks as I recall from each of the earlier two albums, so yeah mostly the new album. Nice crowd of mostly older folk as you'd expect, barely anyone filming the whole thing as you usually get at gigs, everyone actually immersed in the music and enjoying themselves. The bass was RIDICULOUS. Only minor complaint is it felt like they could have done a couple more tunes and I believe there was another 15 mins before the curfew - but that's being picky. Did I mention the bass?

[fatyeti24]

glad to hear that the bass is still in effect.

one of the signifiers of Glasto 2000 being overcrowded was not being hurt by Leftfield's bass - too many humans muffling it out!

I hear you. Worse than the who and Ryan Adams.

I'm at Manchester gig next Thursday, mostly doing the new album from what I've heard. I love it already so fine by me. Expect they will mix it up with a bit more from Leftism etc at Glasto. Bad clash for me too but with PSB but only saw them a couple of weeks ago or they might have won.

[Zoo Music Girl]

Anyone who was there last night got a rough set list? Also what time were they on?

[nowthen2k6]

I saw something somewhere that they played a couple off rhythm and stealth and the rest was the new album.

[sweaver]

They were on about 9.15

Played a few from leftism and from rhythm but most was from latest album. Cracking night, loads of bass, and I mean loads!

[Zoo Music Girl]

We went in the end - got tickets for £20 Awesome gig! And the bass was great. Takes the pain out of not seeing them at Glastonbury.

How long were they on for? Looks only about an hour (going off 11 songs in the set list).

90 mins at Glastonbury.

[sweaver]

It was about 90 at the Forum

[FuzzyDunlop]

Maybe a similar set list then.

I was hoping for Afro Left and Song of life rather than Phatt Planet, but what can you do?

[rubenz]

Anyone else wish they were not on in Sonic? Don't think I've ever really enjoyed anything in there

Never been in, so I am happy in a way.

Last time I was in that tent it was Dance East (or west)

Totally this. I haven't been in there, but I have just heard endless reports of the sound and sight lines being terrible. I'd have loved them to be somewhere else. It's the one thing that is making me doubt whether I will see them. What if that bass that everyone goes on about just doesn't materialise?

On the other hand, I think I will probably start there, and if I can't get he sound right, I'll head across to Deamau5 on The Other Stage & give that a go.
