18-08-01, London Earl's Court Arena. Sound Quality: Good audience recording. Comments: The third of 4 London shows. I do wish those bootleggers would not include that annoying St. Pepper on every boot. It serves no real purpose other then that it was a cue for the tapers that the show was about to start. In a way it reminds of some late Popmart shows when the Mission Impossible tune by Larry and Adam was also sometimes included and also serving no real purpose. A side effect of that bloody Beatles track is that it distorts the showtimes. On paper it looks like show length looks the same compared to leg 1 shows but if you exclude St.Pepper (which was thankfully NOT included back then) it becomes clear that Elevation shows were getting shorter in Europe and even shorter during leg 3. But I'm digressing. London 3 sees a leg 2 1st night setlist with the only changes being 11 o'clock tick for I will follow (last performace of that song on this tour) and In a little while being played before Stuck in a moment. Minimal setlist changes compaered to the 4 Chicago shows of leg 1. |
