Plus I would haven happy for them to sell more tickets in a big place like Berlin.
Yeah, sure, it's a bummer for the band (or management) that it didn't work out as planned. 
For me as a fan, yes, I prefer smaller venues, in Manchester it was fantastic.

What about the Fuji Rock show in terms if audience?
That's a festival. I'm referring to a individual show which they're the headlining act.  

Biggest audience regardless of show type... yes, I would imagine Fuji Rock was the largest crowd. 


And on that note, are we really gonna accept this project will never play Glastonbury? I know it was a skip year in 2026, and I suppose there always could be a second Tomora album in the future, but it feels like a obligation, if not birthright, to have them play... no?

Haha, birthright :) Well, I would certainly not accept it! :wise 

Wouldn't it be fun if they were to play Glasto next year as both Chems and TOMORA? Aurora could walk onto the Chems stage for a short cameo feature and then Tom walks over to the TOMORA set rounding off the weekend.

Roll call for London and Berlin!
Anybody interested in doing a little meetup before or after the shows?

Full recording of the Tokyo live show, Celebrate!


Edit: not the whole show, What Do We Got was cut out

There's a new upload of Fuji Rock (july 2026) on YouTube since yesterday, I think.


PS I see that they did Have You Seen Me Dance Alone in China. Apparently that's the 2nd time they've played it after Noches del Botánico, Madrid.
IT'S MORNING TIME!

I'm at the Glasgow gig tonight. I see doors open at 7, does anyone happen to know if there's any support or roughly know what the stage times are please?

Thank you so much, in anticipation  :tcat

Unfortunately, I can't access the ticket vendor's homepage (due to suspicious activity, lol, probably because I'm outside the UK). There's no mention of any pre-show act like for other shows, so I presume there's none. And given the doors open at 7, I'd also presume the show starts at 8 to 8:30 pm.

Have fun tonight!

Haven't been around here in a while - life gets in the way... but was also at TOMORA last night.  Thought it would be good, but wow - completely blew me away! So, so much better than the album, a mini Chems show!  Smallish venue, but great atmosphere and energy.  

Hope you enjoyed it, Mumbo!

Nice to see you stopping by, @graysquire. Happy to hear you had a blast! Any moments that stood out to you? Also, @Mumbo, how did you like the show?

Yes, at Roundhouse it was the same! Absolutely fantastic gig, the new songs are proper bangers  ;D

Also, the opening act, Oxis, is a real delight, I will definitely check out her music.

Now I'm looking foreard to the Berlin gig today!

OMG, what a night  :o  :Cray
We had everything. So many nice and friendly people of all ages, a wonderful reunion with @Stefan, beautiful music, a quick chat with Oxis and even an ugly kerfuffle in the middle of In A Minute right in front of us resulting in an interruption followed by words of mild admonition and appeal to human kindness from Aurora and finally picking up where we left off with a frenetic continuation of the final act. A night to remember for sure.

It's 237!  That's also the best number because it would make you the Turbo Nutter of the deluxe owners

^ Aurora addressing kerfuffle @ 1:21:54. Very well handled.  

Awesome of how she segued out of the awkward stop to a shout-out to to the family members who made it out for what is possibly the final Tomora European date.

I have a million thoughts about the show & meeting up with some lovely friends and companions that I will share here more cohesively later, but I just wanted to add that this concert was filmed by an angel sent from the heavens above - she ordered sushi for everyone waiting in front of the venue! Everyone was so kind in Berlin.
Oo-ee, bit wobbly on the old feet!

Okay, time for a concert review! My goodness, where do I even begin?!

I think everybody who attended this gig in Berlin knew from the start that it was going to be grand - after all, it was the last show of the year and the last stop in Europe. The last time The Chemical Brothers were in town was nearly two decades ago, so seeing one of them return with two very lovely Norwegian ladies was very much a huge deal for me.

The concert day started much earlier for me than I anticipated. The Aurora side of the fandom has a tradition of meeting up in the morning hours to queue with everyone; very unusual to observe as a fan of The Chemical Brothers! Regardless, it was a lovely experience meeting fellow fans from the TOMORA Discord, exchanging gifts, and essentially spending the whole day together. Tom - cool as ever - actually walked past the venue in the morning, greeted us with a shockingly accent free ,,Guten Morgen" and had a quick chat with us. Let me know if you want any deets on that!

The day transitioned into the evening and excitement for what was to come was at its peak. Oxis was an absolute gem of an opener! She was visibly nervous and did have some minor technical issues, but in my opinion that just made it even better. The way she sampled the material for her live loops and the sheer strength of her voice was mind boggling. What a wonderful fishy woman!

And then, the time had come. Those very first alarm sounds went off, and all worries, fears, and insecurities were gone. TOMORA arrived to rock our shit! It was solid all throughout. The bass rattled all my bones and rearranged everything inside me. And my goodness - Aurora and Amalie were fantastic! Their vocals and choreography were so well coordinated, and they did it all back to back without any breaks! It was breathtaking. At times I found myself with my mouth wide open and hands on the sides of my head. I just could not believe I was witnessing all of this. The energy was through the roof for the entire duration of the show and they definitely fed off us quite a lot. People of all ages came together to celebrate. It was spectacular.

During the last song - IN A MINUTE - there was an incident where a guy towards the back was being more than rough towards a girl. Aurora spotted it and they immediately stopped everything. The guy was thrown out and Aurora used the moment to give a speech about anger, hate, and love and took the moment to thank all of her family and their crew. After making sure the affected people were okay, she immediately got the energy back up again and we did get one more round of the big pink cat. I kept thinking to myself, man, this woman is a pro.

After the show was over, I finally felt that feeling I had been chasing for so long: pure, unfiltered glint. My heart and soul and mind were made of glint, and so were those of everyone around me. I met Stefan and Csar in the crowd (the two sweetest people ever! Aaah!! I felt like I was meeting urban legends!) and ended up hugging what felt like a hundred people. What a wonderful time to be alive!

On the day(s) after I met up with Stefan, Csar, and some more folks from the TOMORA Discord server again! Oh man, what a lovely time it was! I miss all of you so much already. This is a time I will never forget and cherish for the rest of my life.

Massive thanks to Stefan, Csar, Stormy, Auro, Sora, Tommy, Jonte, Paul, and of course TOMORA and their crew for brining us all together  :tcat

Thank you for this wonderful and vivid review, @instantreigen! It was more than a pleasure meeting you and your lovely people. I'll get into more detail (including geeking out over this super cool little gift you gave us :clap) when I get back from my student reunion. Can't wait to show some pics of that!

You asking? Of course we want to know what K+D+B stands for, and i'm really happy that the Aurora side of the fandom and the fellow fans from the TOMORA Discord asked Tom that question first!
