Notes

Nitzer Ebb was the support act. Douglas McCarthy said to the November 2005 issue of Sonic Seducer magazine that someone threw a big shoe at him at this show, but Douglas was mostly surprised by the fact that it was only one shoe.

Fan A M recounts this memory from this concert:

An anecdote from that concert -- there was something wonky about the sound engineering and the first maybe three songs were slightly off-key to Dave's singing. Martin kind of hit the synth at one point and threw his hands up in frustration and Dave was like, hmm. A couple of adjustments and the rest was beyond fabulous, such amazing energy.

Video

A couple minutes of decent pro-shot footage, plus some footage of the support act, was featured on the local-TV show "Take 2". Many thanks to Times2Productions for transferring and sharing their 3/4" U-matic tape copy on YouTube.

  • Source 1 is an okay incomplete audience recording; there's distorted and boomy bass, hiss, and talkers throughout the recording.
