They also need to make money- it costs a fair bit to fly 6 people
from the US and they have a pretty extensive equipment list too AND
they need a pretty big stage for the current band- I take your point
about playing at clubs like Fabric- there were many people up here
who said the same when they played the Arches and also at the Slam
tent at T In The Park- teh Arches gig worked pretty well I thought,
the Slam tent one, not so much

Ouchhhhh and you have a point Rob, UR have gone through a lot of
changes and ones I believe they've had to because of the times, I
mean, now isn't a good time to be traveling through customs with a
case full of combats and ski masks is it!!!! I don't think UR are
refusing underground promoters, they just don't want to play London
as far as I can tell...
