Any Underworld Fans?

Ever since I got hooked on techno (it started with Halcyon On and On) my favorite group has been Underworld. I just eat their albums up (although I haven't gotten their newest yet.)
Them and their design group Tomato are some of the most interesting 'artwork' thats happened in a while. Just yesterday I made an amazing find. They have TONS of their live performances up on the web here:

I guess they figure 4 more live albums wouldn't sell, so why not give the stuff away. What I've downloaded so far doesn't have any crowd noise (which I tend to like in live performances) but since it is all electronica, its easy to capture the music right from the source. Thats pretty interesting that you can hear a live performance just as clearly as a studio album, but I guess thats an advantage of working all digital.
Hope some of you find this as great a find as I do.
