The Leftfield @ Coachella 2010 or ever Thread.

[boarderwoozel3]

Who's with me?

[sonofhal]

The Leftfield? Are they friends with The Blur?

[boarderwoozel3]

Well shit. I see how that reads.... balls. Idea stands. Are you in or out?

[sonofhal]

Oh, I'm always in where Leftfield are involved. I wonder if they could get John Lydon to stop making butter adverts long enough to join them on tour.

[Leeartlee]

Leftfield, was a third album really too much to ask?

[paulthomasanderson]

How easily Leftfield was forgotten over the past 2 months or so - they are absolutely incredible.

The live at Montreux 2000 gig below almost in its entirety:

[Dr. Lufs-al-ot]

Leftfield would be a great performance.

Dont see it happening though :/

[paulthomasanderson]

Leftfield would be a great performance.

[boarderwoozel3]

It would be completely out of, well, left field. And it would be spectacular.

[paulthomasanderson]

It would be completely out of, well, left field. And it would be spectacular.

You and I will lead this campaign next year. It will be the Orbital-like thread for 2011. Ha, I remember seeing that hurt/heal Sahara thread and as soon as someone posted that "Phat Planet" video, everyone started voting in favor of Leftfield. After about a week, it was as if everyone forgot they existed. Anyone that watches that Montreux performance will be convinced that they would be stellar.

[boarderwoozel3]

Yeah, that was me who posted that video. It's one of those things that if you're not terribly familiar with them before, you're going to be in a hurry.

Le win!

[Dr. Lufs-al-ot]

Aphex Twin (Live) ---> Underworld ---> Leftfield 2011

ya it'd be facemelting

[boarderwoozel3]

There'd be mdma shortages throughout Southern California.

[Dr. Lufs-al-ot]

oh but it'd be totally worth it.

[moomoo]

so far I am in complete support of this. definitely need to do some more research/listening though.

[moomoo]

all I needed to hear was "Open Up" off Leftism and I am sold.

[boarderwoozel3]

oh but it'd be totally worth it.

Yes, yes it would.

all I needed to hear was "Open Up" off Leftism and I am sold.

Apparently they're known to put on a wicked live show as well.

[paulthomasanderson]

I've seen some spectacular sets put on in the Sahara, as we all have, but Leftfield could arguably redefine the term "face-melting" with just 90 minutes. It's safe to say the campaign for this is well in the works. Let's make it happen!

[boarderwoozel3]

Si se puede! Si se puede!

[paulthomasanderson]

Si se puede! Si se puede!

Indeed.

[Leeartlee]

How easily Leftfield was forgotten over the past 2 months or so - they are absolutely incredible.

They aren't forgotten. But wishing for them can borderline on masochism.

[MonOm]

These guys need to be brought to coachella. This is the one act, that after seeing that Phat Planet video, I need. This might be the greatest thing that may ever happen to me.

[boarderwoozel3]

Throw lots of money at them and let's make this happen.

Pretty please w sugar on top? Thanks, you're the best

[SoulDischarge]

So we're not getting Leftfield, but we are getting "Open Up."

[paulthomasanderson]

2011 campaign in the works.

[boarderwoozel3]

True that.

But the problem is this: There's no indication whatsoever that they're willing or going to reform. Which makes all of this effort moot. Our sccess with Orbital centered around an active band and good timing. So the question becomes do we want to try and shout over what appears to be a brick wall or concentrate our energy toward something active? Underworld is still running around. The Chemical Brothers are coming out with a new album this year = live shows. I don't know, thoughts?

[paulthomasanderson]

We will send them endearing letters full of a passionate longing for a one-off performance for 2011.

[boarderwoozel3]

Deal, let's find some physical and email addresses.
