Notes
A power failure reportedly occurred during Just Can't Get Enough and the song was played twice as a result. Info thanks to Stefano Dalmonte.
Alan explained in 1987: "[T]he power cord ran through the crowd and, just as we started the last song, [a fan] cut through the cable and everything went off!"
Il Resto Del Carlino reported in March 1984 (translation by Maxim Santalia):
Just Can't Get Enough had begun playing and, coup de thèatre, the lights and sound system shut down: later on it will be discovered that a mixer cable has been cut off, perhaps by an overzealous fan wishing to give his personal contribution to the group's performance, or perhaps even by someone who was annoyed by the event's success. The mishap however did not influence the audience's morale, who, cheerful and clumped, patiently waited for the glitch to be fixed just so they could listen to the British band playing for a few minutes more.
