1 March 2005 will be a date that will be hard to forget for some time to come. I Chemical Brothers arrive in Milan and find the Forum di Assago packed to the rafters, with the 'sold-out' announced a few weeks ago. Outside, the scalpers get rich and the unhappy faces without a ticket in their pockets are many. Outside, the temperature is below zero, inside it is a blazing bedlam of beat bodies.
Ed and Tom do not disappoint must surprise. Yes, because the one in Milan is the most successful date of their European tour in terms of the number of payers. And 11,000 people 'pressed the button' last night and started the dance among the house stars.
This is the executed set list :
1. Hey Boy Hey Girl
2. Get Yourself High
3. Big Jump
4. Galvanise
5. Music Response
6. Block Rocking Beats
7. Leave Home
8. Like Inside
9. Under the Influence
10. It doesn't matter
11. Out of Control
12. Star Guitar
13. Surface to Air
14. Hoops
15. Believe
16. Acid Children
17. Golden Path
18. Slow But Grind
19. Hold Tight London
20. The Private Psychedelic Reel
And for those who want to relive last night's excitement, meet at the 1 June in Bologna when the Chemical Brothers will play at the Flippaut Festival!
Appointment in collaboration with All Music, Radio m2o, and Rockstar.
