Notes from one of the tapers accompanying the release
At 8.50 the stage was engulfed in smoke. Twenty minutes later it was deemed dense enough for<
the band to take to the stage. Andrew looked very dapper in his suit with a shaven head. The
venue was built in 1902 as an indoor circus and variety hall. Apparently, the elephants lived
in the basement and were lifted up to the auditorium. I don't think the heating system had
been upgraded since then as it was absolutely freezing throughout the evening.
Please do not sell this recording but share freely and enjoy it!
