I've been looking for something like this for a while. I knew somebody had to have a live performance of Undertow. Lush was a fabulous band and this is a great show! Thank you for posting this.
@turricaned ...and then what happened happened. Much has been written of the theories behind why the UK indie thing turned sour - Oasis hob-nobbing with the Blairs and what have you. But I can tell you that the London scene took a body blow the day Chris Acland died, and it never really recovered.
@Methuselas Unlike you I never met the bloke (my loss). That said - by all accounts, if he was having dark times he kept them well hidden, even from Miki - there's no way she'd have let him go up north on his own if she'd thought for even a second that he was thinking that way. They knew he needed a break, and went as far as rehearsing with other drummers to give him time to balance himself (as far as anyone knew, he was just burnt out from touring)...
one of their greatest songs

Thanks for posting. Didn't know about Undertow 'til the Levi's commercial. I think it's their masterpiece.
Whoa, people are moshing to Lush.
Wow. Thank you.
It's still quite a shame that 4AD never bothered to release an official DVD of them (neither they did with the Throwing Muses).
Brilliant!

Ohhh, so you're the blonde bloke she mentions in this vid then!:
