Notes

This was the last time that In Sympathy was played, with the only other time of it having been played being 2009-05-06 Luxembourg. According to Michael Lyons, Andy Fletcher's brother-in-law, this was because DM felt that they were playing one 'Sounds Of The Universe' track too many during their gigs so one had to be dropped.

Martin and Andy told The Guardian in 2009:

Martin: "[W]e're going to be starting our tour in Tel Aviv - we were supposed to end our last one there but unfortunately the Israel/Lebanon war got in the way of it."

Fletch: "They've got different agendas. They like music, but missiles are just more important."

Martin: "Yes. We had to make the decision not to fly in and do the gig because there were missiles flying around and to make up for that we're starting this time in Tel Aviv."

Terry Poison and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs were the support act. Israeli model Bar Refaeli was in attendance.
