REVIEWS

Barry S' review
Paul, Jo & Karin's review will be added later

BOOTLEGS

CD : This is the end of the whole thing (source was the same as the CDR mentioned below) . Songs 11-14 are left out to make it fit on 1 disc.
CDR : audience recording (DAT-sourced) "Olympia" complete set.
This show was available on audiotape (in a lesser soundquality than the recording mentioned above) on the very next day in a very infamous recordstore in Dublin. Adam (commenting on this in interviews, several times) went there himself to buy it, the day after the show.
 

COMMENTS

Adam added a beautiful "indian style" part to Mercury. Hear for yourself.
He also joked about a new song that was "never the same twice". Hear for yourself.
Before the opening act, Adam came out, sat down on the stage and started signing autographs for what seemed like ages. The securitypeople admitted that no one who played there had ever done such a nice thing before. Probably everyone in the venue got an autograph !

 OPENING ACT

Kieran Kennedy. This band has the dubious honour of being the first (and only?) opening band that neither Adam nor any of the other bandmembers liked (musically). Bettie Serveert wasn't able to play in Dublin, due to a lack of funds, and none of the other "related bands" were able to open either. Not even U2 ;-) Kieran's bassplayer apparently is a friend of CC's tourmanager.
