Bosco you'll be helpful when we put together the gigography ;D
EDIT: Added some more after going through old files.
Thanks for the additions. Will update main post.
Organic Festival.
I don't have many regrets. But getting altitude sickness and having to bail before the Chemicals was one.
Was that your first attempt at a Chemical Brothers gig, Whirly? When was your first show anyway? Missing a Chems show because of sickness has to be devastating. Inchemwetrust almost fell victim in the desert heat, but made an awesome recovery.
Some dates have been updated in years 1998 and 2005
Pulled out some DJ dates from this ancient MTV article during the release of "Brothers Gonna Work It Out"
http://www.mtv.com/news/500521/chemical-brothers-to-play-first-us-dj-tour/
and then I came across this via google... http://njbrouns.home.xs4all.nl/Livesets.htm
Apparently old forum member Den B's fansite! Will file through this later. Should be a huge help. Where he at anyway?

It would have been my first attempt, yes. My husband wanted to go to a big rave up so we got tickets to Organic. I knew who the Chems were, had heard their music at clubs and raves, but wasn't all that familiar with them, honestly. We were more familiar with the Orb and my husband was a Meat Beat Manifesto fan so Organic seemed like a good time! I went to one rave type festival before, but never a festival in the mountains. I was exposed to the desert heat and sun earlier that day, was poorly dressed for nighttime in the mountains, and not hanging well with the altitude was the topper. Life's cruel joke is I love the mountains and I've never gotten altitude sick since! How lame is that? :D My first show was Coachella 1999 and it was perfect in every way!
I'm not sure what happened to Den B. He was a nice kid, and he just loved the Chems. He fell out of touch with the forum and he and I emailed a bit for a time. This was quite a few years ago. He had a really talented eye for photography!
You missed Canada in 2002, come with us Tour. Hershey Center Mississauga Ontario. I think the date was in June. i could be mistaken though considering i was there adn it has been what 13 years since?
DAMN, B!
That's a fuckin' list right there.
Nice work.
Just updated a bitchload of dates.
Redout, thanks for the tip. Found it! And the month was April, from what info I've been provided.
They really toured a lot harder than I initially thought in the late 90's. They even managed to play Hawaii back in 1997.
The Q101 twisted 6 show in 1999 on December 4th is an interesting one because they had just played their Brixton sets on the 2nd and 3rd. And then to come all the way to Chicago to play for a shorten set at this Indoor Alternative Festival (other bands only went 5-6 songs deep on their set list)? Did this really happen? Was it just a DJ set? I can't really find conformation that they actually played.
Was totally surprised to find that they opened for U2 in back in 2000. Did anybody attend this?
The Chems also dj'd May 30, 2004 in Boston (event was the WBCN River Rave)
As for their opening slot for U2? That would have been interesting to see!
The Chems also did a closed gig for Microsoft. It was in... I want to say 2006 or 2007? I know it happened, I just can't find anything on it right now.
The Chemistry Brothers performed for my friends and I in 2008 in the park by me. I paid them 50 bucks.
I'm pretty sure this link may contribute.

Oh, hahahah! I can't believe that site is still around! The guy who ran that site originally (his name was David White I think) was on the old Chems mailing list. My review of Coachella was something I originally posted to the list. Pre-forum days!
Update to their first stateside gig in Orlando. Looks like it took place in 1993. And found this awesome treasure:

Update to their first stateside gig in Orlando. Looks like it took place in 1993.
It didn't, it was for sure 1994. You maybe found the same great Edge retrospective thing on the show (http://"http://www.orlandoweekly.com/orlando/dance-dance-revolution/Content?oid=2244233"), which mistakenly quotes it as 1993 despite interviewing loads of important people who were there at the time, lol.
It's 1994 because Adam/Tom/Ed in interviews and in the Don't Think booklet confirm that their very first show was at Sabersonic, and that was early 1994. Also they mentioned the crowd going mental as soon as Chemical Beats started up, and Chemical Beats wasn't out until 1994. And yeah they might have had a working demo of Chemical Beats going in 1993, but the crowd wouldn't have recognized it.
'Don't Think' booklet:
Quote"Smith's Introduction to the band came the night he provided visuals for the band's first gig at Andrew Weatherall's Legendary Sabresonic Club at the start of 1994"
Not to be nitpicky, but this only implies that this was there first gig at Weatherall's Club, not necessarily their first gig overall. Thus, leaving open the idea that they could have been done some gigs for awhile.
If you check the website (brianbright.com) where I pulled the flyer from, You'll see that this Brian Bright guy has a lot of Rave/Club flyers from all over Florida, in chronological order. Now, that doesn't necessarily finalize correct date placement, but it's curious how it matches with the Orlando Weekly article.
Additionally, (and this is where it gets supper nerdy) If you backtrack the dates of July 3rd of 1994, you'll find it falls on a Sunday. Which from a party/rave standpoint does not make since. However, July 3rd of 1993 is a Saturday. This fits perfectly. They probably played at midnight or sometime into the early morning of the 4th. Thus the confusion with the 3rd and 4th. Boom! Happy Independence Day.
EDIT: and I'm an idiot, I just need to look at the flyer as far as answering the date debate. It's 1994

Good memory Whirly! I actually think it was 2005, and they played a show for Microsoft to close their E3 presentation.

In retrospect, the last few tours that landed in Denver should have probably gone to Toronto. Maybe they pissed off the Canadian Mounties or were caught smuggling maple syrup on their last visit.
The viscous maple spills won't help you now.

1994 July 3rd - "Kids From Orlando" gig, Orlando, FL, USA
Was that a live set ? We were asking ourselves earlier with Chemdup when they started playing live sets, if it was in 95 or if they did some in 94 or even earlier.
It was a live set, they did a handful sets in 94.

Some cool promo stuff on the Astralwerks website timeline (http://www.astralwerks.com/timeline/), including this:
(http://www.astralwerks.com/files/2015/11/310A0443.jpg)
Quote from: "E Kolosine"Formula (Now Magnum) PR / Astralwerks release for the brothers' North American tour. Riding high on the success of their first two albums, the band blazed a trail across the U.S., along with the legendary Orb. Many minds were blown, some for the first time as we made our way across the country – enjoying the unique comforts of cross country bus travel. We watched a lot of episodes of the Simpsons on VHS, among other things!
But what I really wanted to bump this thread was to talk about Coachella 2011.
I'm trying to remember, when exactly did the show get going? I think it was after 12 AM Pacific Time, right?. If everything went off without a hitch the time slot was 11:40PM - 1:AM? And at the time we were inline to get "Superflash", right?
This is awesome. Wiki goes live this summer so we can add all this stuff.
I haven't launched it because I have been meaning to give it a Chems themed skin and haven't gotten to it. Having ADHD and multiple things to do is a nightmare. But I will definitely launch with or without the skin before August.
Dude, let me know if there's anything I can help out with.
My lady comes to visit mid July but I'm around before that if you need anything 'designed'.
Whoa! Is this right?

QuoteCHICAGO, Sept. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Legendary rock icon David Bowie
mesmerized more than 600 Miller Genuine Draft Blind Date winners from across
the country with a "mystery" concert on Friday, September 19 at The Vic
Theater in Chicago.
"Do you have a few minutes?" Bowie asked the screaming audience. "I'm
going to play a few songs for you -- some old, some new, some you'll like,
some you won't."
Bowie, a Virgin recording artist, performed hits from his most recent
album Earthling as well or classics from his 30-year career, including "Fame,"
"The Man Who Sold The World" and "Under Pressure."
"Who better to perform our final mystery MGD Blind Date concert than
David Bowie, one of the most influential and intriguing musicians of our
time?" said Bruce Winterton, Miller Genuine Draft Brand Director. "Seeing
Bowie perform in an intimate, small-club setting is something that Blind Date
winners will never forget."
Miller Genuine Draft kicked off its third and final 1997 Blind Date
concert in the Windy City amidst a tempest of rumors and speculation as to who
would be performing. The first mystery concert took place in June with Bush
and Veruca Salt at The Hollywood Palace in Los Angeles. The second Blind Date
in July featured the Foo Fighters and Supergrass at The Fillmore in San
Francisco.
The Chemical Brothers appeared as the surprise opening band and got the
crowd going with their innovative sounds and infectious beats, performing
tracks from their second album Dig Your Own Hole and their debut album Exit
Planet Dust.
"The hardest part of the evening was keeping Bowie a secret until he hit
the stage," said Winterton. "As one of the world's premier performers, Bowie
put on an incredible show."
Miller Genuine Draft Blind Date performing artists and venues remain a
mystery until the evening of the show. No tickets are sold to the intimate
MGD Blind Date concerts. The audience is comprised of more than 600 MGD Blind

QuoteMiller Genuine Draft's third and final Blind Date concert took place Friday night at Chicago's historic Vic Theatre with one of the world's biggest techno acts, The Chemical Brothers, warming up the stage for the legendary David Bowie.
A small group of lucky music fans (and Miller patrons) were flown in from around the continent and taken under a veil of secrecy in buses to the venue for an evening of good food, plenty of flowing Miller products and of course, great music.
At 8:30 p.m., a black curtain displaying a single illuminated question mark parted, and the Chemical Brothers kicked off the night.
Straight from Manchester, England, the Brothers were in town to "work it out" for a group of about 900 people in a theater that normally holds 1,400. For nearly an hour they threw out intense block rockin' beatsaccompanied by wild, swirling lights and crazy looping images flashing across a screen draped behind the pair.
After spinning discs and mixing grooves with loud, heart-pounding bass beats, the duo threw up their hands to a hyped-up crowd and waved good-bye, setting the stage for the Thin White Duke.
Following a short set break, Bowie made his entrance to the punchy sounds of "Jean Genie." Acoustic guitar in hand, he rocked the popular 1973 tune to a neat closure and announced with an honest grin slapped across his face: "We're going to do some old songs, and some young songs." For the next hour and a half, the show was just that -- an even mixture of classic Bowie tunes and drum 'n bass selections from his latest release, Earthling.
Primed by the Chemical Brothers' mind-blowing show, the audience accepted Bowie's electronic efforts, but were clearly more ecstatic when they caught the first bass steps to "Under Pressure," and the signature guitar riffs in the classic classic rock tune "All the Young Dudes" (produced and written by Bowie, but originally recorded by Mott the Hoople). Still, the gut-wrenching rendition of "I'm Afraid of Americans" and the harrowing and heartfelt "Battle for Britain," both from Earthling, showed that Bowie only grows more soulful with time.
During the night, Bowie pulled out two Velvet Underground covers -- "I'm Waiting for the Man," and "White Light/White Heat." He also ripped through "Man Who Sold the World," the title track off his 1970 release later reincarnated on Nirvana's final album, In Utero.
The show closed out Miller's Blind Date concert series, which kicked off in Los Angeles on June 4 with Bush and Veruca Salt. Show No. 2 had surprised Miller guests watching the Foo Fighters and Supergrass at San Francisco's Fillmore Auditorium.
Jesus fucking Christ, if that couldn't be any cooler!
and MTV's take! :D

QuoteChicago -- For the second night in a row, Chicago was treated to a small show by a
rock legend. David Bowie and the Chemical Brothers stole some of the
musical spotlight from a town abuzz with Rolling Stones rumors as they
played the third and final Miller Genuine Draft Blind Date concert Friday night.
Although most of the rumors surrounding this mystery show centered around a
certain foursome in town, Bowie took the stage himself and didn't
disappoint. Not that the audience, comprised of 600 contest winners (300 of
whom were flown in for the occasion from around the country) were going to
be too picky. "No matter who the band is, it's a great event," said Patrick
Estevez from Puerto Rico, when questioned before the show began. "It's a great party and I've met a lot of great people."
With the previous bills in this series being headlined by Bush in L.A and
the Foo Fighters in San Francisco no one expected to be disappointed.
As a nice set-up, the Chemical Brothers opened the show at the Vic theater. Despite all the hype surrounding bands like them and Prodigy,
the audience was unmoved by the beats and rhythms put out by this British
duo.
The Chemical Brothers seemed to have trouble really interacting with the crowd from behind
their array of samplers and keyboards, all mounted on a riser on the stage.
And let's face it, they're not big on stage presence. If they programmed
computers instead of sequencers, they'd be labeled geeks. Toward the end of
their 40-minute set, the strobes and the free beer had started to seep
through the audience and there was some reaction from the fans on the
floor.
That all changed as Bowie took the stage. Bowie is, of course, a consummate veteran performer, conscious at every moment of the image he is
presenting. The stage included props such as
painted eye-ball balloons about six feet in diameter (which later were
bopped around the audience) and mannequins shaped like alien visitors who
at times had faces projected on them. Long-time Bowie collaborator,
guitarist Reeves Gabrels, was dressed in a kilt. Bowie's outfit was a more
subtle grey shirt and pants, but the spotlight was on him, and he owned
the stage.
The feel of the show was casual and Bowie worked the crowd, often pointing,
waving, shaking hands with the fans who crushed up against the stage. His set didn't vary from the mix of old and new material he's been playing on his current club and theater tour. It featured a mix of songs
from his two most recent albums, Earthling and Outside, as well as some
selections from his '70s catalog including "Scary Monsters" and "Fame." He also
threw in some Velvet Underground covers and his rendition of the Mott
the Hoople anthem he wrote and produced for that group, "All the Young Dudes."
Even during the show, however, eyes kept drifting over to the wings to see
if perhaps Mick Jagger might just drop in to refresh his and Bowie's take
on "Dancing in the Street." When he didn't show, there was a touch of
disappointment in the crowd -- and certainly among the 75 people hangin' around outside the theater hoping Jagger and the rest of the Stones would show. [Sat., Sept. 20, 1997, 9 a.m. PST]

Hi.
Your list is missing something.
You said...
"1995 January 19th - Billboard Dance Music Summit, DV8 Club, San Francisco, CA, USA (last known show under The Dust Brothers name, performed as a part of a DeConstruction records showcase presumably though the old Ariel connection, and there's a possibility it happened on the 20th)."
Actually I think the last none gig as The Dust Brothers was on 28th Jan '95 in LA. With Justin Robertson and The Crystal Method as part of an Urb magazine/ De Construction / City of Angels night. A DJ set tho'.. in a tiny club in Melrose.
I remember it well as I was there and walked (yeah i know!) back across LA to Venice Beach in the early morning where I was staying at the time. I have the flyer in my hand right now!
Shall i upload it?
Nice - please upload it!
The gigography was live shows only at this point, but let's include DJ sets, why not.
Also, about the wiki. It's live at http://wiki.thechembase.com/wiki/Main_Page and has been for a while. I meant to do a major CSS overhaul to make it look like the rest of the site, but I haven't had time for that since I got involved with my radio station. Let's just add information to it! I suppose we can make a visual overhaul later.
chemicaldatabase.wikia.com contains a lot of my existing notes, we can import that info over to this one.
I'll also see if I can make my archive of Chems odds and ends public so people can draw from that info.
I'd seriously love to get this going as I feel it's been too delayed.

Awesome! Please yes, upload the flyer.
I would love to see photos from these older gigs, but I'm sure that wasn't of mind back in the day. Let alone, most of the rave and club culture was more hush-hush for obvious reasons.
Thanks for finding the thread and sharing Orangegodd
Here's the flyer. A bit dog-eared as i used it as a book mark for a few years ;-).
S
deconstruction records?
If you look on discogs Justin Robertson's Lionrock was frequently on Deconstruction, including many of the Dust Brothers early remix tracks. But I'm still failing to understand why they would be sponsored by Deconstruction. It should be Junior Boy's Own, right?
Judging by the timeline, I imagine they were still seeking an American Label to sign with to distrubte their soon to be released 'Exit Planet Dust'
edit: also added the date in the first post
Tom's old band Ariel was on Deconstruction too. I think they just had a strong connection with the label having released so many remixes through them / commissioned by them (including the very first Tom/Ed release, the T Baby remix).
Maybe Deconstruction was hoping to court the Tom/Ed into fulling signing with them and part of that involved getting them a few gigs stateside. Especially since they were rapidly outgrowing JBO at the time and looking for a larger label to formally sign with.
If that's the case I definitely imagine Tom vetoed going back to them, since Deconstruction pushed Ariel into going for a more pop sound and had them to hire Sally Ann Marsh in the first place. Gotta avoid label interference.

Holy shit! What a cool line-up! :o
Yeah, that's like a full-blown burrito explosion! Given they're all there the same day, they could have little live-live jam session with Sumner, Donahue and Bradfield.
Do it Geoff
So I saw them at the North Coast Music festival when I was living in Chicago.. the set could have been a wee bit longer .. weather for September was warm..
Then at the Riveara in Chicago ( when I was still living in Detroit) That was Amazing !!
Beautiful Beautiful times :music
Wish I was old enough When they came to Detroit .. I read somewhere years later Tom and Ed were not fans of the cold and snow LOL

This got mention in a conversation I had a short while ago, and while the forum was down I tracked down a photo.
hey some of you remember this steel foot-locker (The Concourse, San Francisco)? Great night. It was my first real initiation with meeting regular forum members. But in retrospect, what a horribly shitty choice of venue.

you'll be pleased (?) to know it's now a block of apartment buildings.
on reading this thread for the first time, wow they were active here in the 90s. what happened.
^
I've attempted to anticipate and predict potential North American dates with very little success. They're VERY selective.
To add, they've been quoted that they don't really wanna do extensive touring anymore. "Been there, done that" kinda thing. They were on Zane Lowe's show back in May when Cali gigs were happening. Zane was poking fun at their US tour, and their reply was pretty coy. It mostly feels like it rests on what Tom wants to do, where Ed maybe just along for the ride at this point. Tom is a family man, so being away from home is taxing for any extended period.
Cost is another factor. The show is a lot more expensive then it was before. I imagine is a bit tough in negotiations with venues/festivals especially outside of Europe. Let's face it, The Chemical Brothers don't exactly bring the $$$ like a young, up-in-coming, artist.
Ultimately, I think they just prefer to play Europe and any new opportunities/markets that weren't available before during their peak through the late 90's.
I do wish they would be a little more blunt with their fans about their willingness/plight to play North America. There's a lot of scattered fans over here that are hoping for a future date, when you could just encourage them that you're strictly focused on costal dates (LA/NY).
1997 May 2nd - The Joint at Hard Rock Hotel, Las Vegas, NV, USA

Thanks rynostar. Added it in and along with the Mexico 2020 date.
Who was "support" in the shows with The Orb. I wanna say The Orb because I don't think they had the critical acclaim The Chems had. Or maybe it was a double bill?Edit 1:

Thanks Sneaker!
If referencing the Calgary and Vancouver dates in October, those were already known and posted in the list.
I remember the Calgary one being advertised in my hometown, Edmonton, when I was 14. Obviously I really wanted to go but couldn't travel the two and a half hours south on the account of being 14. Actionjackson780 and I have talked about that show and how everyone we encounter that went had there mind blown.
As for the Vancouver date, I have to laugh as I now live 2 minutes from it. Heck, I run past it every few days on my workouts. There's a great athletics track and set of football / soccer pitches next to it. Went in there for a craft fair before Christmas. It defiantly has the space to fill a chems show. It's a venue that looks like it's close to a hundred years old meaning harsh sound.
The crew / band departure dates intrigue me with those lists.

Naw, they played Toronto and Montreal in July of 99 which I had missing. We can put another 2 on the board!
One of the dates that I have listed but isn't on the itineraries, is the Hawaii date in 1997. I don't doubt they made the extra trip out there, I just can't pull any information about it other than this:
http://archives.starbulletin.com/97/06/12/community/music.html
and I don't remember how I was tipped off about this date either...

Ok with a little extra time on my hands, I went a little further down the rabbit hole. I've might have narrowed on an actual venue for this.
I think it was a French restaurant by day, and a Night Club at night called,
'Louis XIV'. The address is, 606 N. La Brea Los Angeles, California (~half block off of Melrose Avenue). It's been closed for awhile, but from the information I collected, promoters Freddy Be and Mick Cole (The BudBrothers) have ties to London's Heavenly Social. Additionally, Mick Cole was the U.S. manager of Deconstruction's America Label. They even promoted their own "Monday Social" event in L.A., which was inspired by the Heavenly Social. Apparently it's still a popular event, but through a different venue.
Here is some sources where I got this from:

https://www.magneticmag.com/2012/08/16-years-and-still-going-strong-monday-night-social-is-an-edm-culture-institution-hurray-for-house-music/
that's pretty cool, nice digging bosco =]
Wow.
This really belongs on the internet archive or wikipedia or something. This message board is great and all but it's not going to be preserved, and has a limited audience.
The truth is, this is just a small piece of the pie. I haven't even touched UK dates or Europe, I'll leave that for someone with more knowledge of the geography and history.
The main reason I wanted to create this thread is to make it as a beacon for those that might have stumbled across our forum and have an old story to tell. As time moves on, these stories fade, so it's nice to have a place to share them before we forget. I'm doing my best to track down these tour dates and organize them, so we can massage whatever broken memories that might be stuck in some peoples head.
WhiteNoise attempted to do a fan-based wiki page to keep track of stuff like this, but... life. If someone should deem the stuff that I have unearthed worthy of being noted on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Chemical_Brothers, by all means, have at it.

LOL. I'm pretty sure Wicked (Sound Clash) is just a residency/label out of San Francisco. Throughout that rave flyer website I have listed, you can see their name/logo pop up in some NY rave flyers "coming from San Francisco" and so forth.
I would imagine if the real Mark Wahlberg was part of this gig, we would have heard about it already.
yeah wicked is a DJ crew here in SF. they are partially responsible for bringing rave culture to the bay area in the early 90s. some of them are still active DJs, and they have an anniversary party here once a year.
Already accounted for but cool to look at:

Looking at that list, I have been to every NY appearance since 99 with the exception of the 2010 Electric Zoo set (saw them at Ultra Miami instead).
2002 November 2nd - Hammerstein Ballroom, New York City, NY, USA
This show was a bit wild. Audio Bullys, Cassius, and Simian (Mobile Disco) opened. Yes, the Mobile Disco part was in parenthesis because they weren't Simian Mobile Disco (with just Ford and Shaw) yet; it was Simian the entire rock band doing a weird electronic set of their songs and others (I think) on synths, pads, and machines. Hence it was Simian's "mobile disco". Simon Lord was singing. It was similar to what Kevin Parker is doing with Tame Impala Sound System. Actually it's the exact same thing. I don't think I can ever get over how awesome a name Simian Mobile Disco is, btw.
2005 September 16th - Ultra NY, Central Park, New York City, NY, USA
Outdoor set, started in daylight (NY thing, so they end earlier). The visuals crapped out at one point, and I *think* to compensate they just smoked the crowd out with the fog machine every few minutes. I clearly remember during Under the Influence the fog machine just tidal waving over everyone as the bass kicked in; completely enveloped. Couldn't see anything for a good 30 seconds at a clip when they did it. You felt it smashing your face. Loved it.
To comment on your Ultra NY experience,
I absolutely love the full Chemical Brothers visual experience, but I totally think they could scale down and get away with the dirty rave vibe (strobing, smoking, and lazering), without missing much.
Speaking of visuals getting crapped out, it has just about been 10 years since The Chemical Brothers (final?) Coachella performance in 2011. So many mixed emotions that night!
Hey, thanks for the pinned thread!
So the trick worked, you updated it :D
I finally found confirmation that they played Hawaii on June 12th, 1997. This is oddly satisfying to find out because I love to hear about oddball/unlikely tour dates like this.
As you'll see, the show was produced by Goldenvoice and tickets were $18.

Uhhhhh....I haven't seen this before. It's from the tail end of an interview on "The New Music" which was on the Canadian station MuchMusic. The interviewer is Terry David Mulligan who is a known (not well known) tv/radio host and actor.
The interview looks to be prior their May 8, 1997 show at "The Rage" here in Vancouver which is now called the Plaza of Nations or Harbour Events Centre. It's weird cause, I walk past this spot every few weeks.
Interesting to see a young Adam filming the experience...and then nutting Terry David Mulligan.
