Do it again

September 24, 2007: a date that will live in anthropic lore. The Chemical Brothers came to the Riviera Theatre in Chicago and turned it on end.

It is exceedingly difficult to illuminate the exact event as it transpired as to do so would be analogous to describing the majesty of heaven in a few whimsical thoughts. A hundred poets writing for a thousand years couldn't capture the transcendent beauty that was on display for two hours that evening.

It was a truly remarkable, profound, and astonishing experience. It was a historic, sonic epoch that can only be ultimately understood by those who were fortunate enough to attend. The music and light interplay was mesmerizing, the crowd was absolutely bonkers, and Tom and Ed were searing. They deserve nothing short of unremitting approbation for their efforts.

The aural bliss never ceded. We overheard several concert goers equating it to a 48 hour orgasm, but without the obligatory trip to Santa Barbara.

It's beyond troubling more people in this world do not have the opportunity to appreciate such acute moments of delight like all those who were present. Below you'll find a clip from the show. The transition into Hey Boy Hey Girl occurs at 5:05 and is extraordinary. The sound leaves much to be desired, but it is still well worth a watch.

We have also posted their video for The Golden Path; a beautiful song (sung by Wayne Coyne of The Flaming Lips) with complementary visuals to boot.
