Two known sources for this one. The better one is another pretty good recording from this UK+ leg of the Tour. The better one splits at the end of johnney Appleseed and the lesser one, which suffer some bass distortion and is less clear splist at the end of Bummed Out City. The venue itself does not lend for great recording with its bass boomy and loud sound. If the band were running low on gas at Birmingham, it ran out in Dublin. A minimalistic and very tired run through following a punishing schedule from Birmingham, then overseas to Dublin in consequetive nights. The small friendly <quaint> old victorian theatre in Temple Bar was full of Irish chit chat as the audience, as at every other venue, found there was to much new material to consume all at once. By Mondo Bongo the Dublin audience, indicative of the UK dates, began to switch off. Joes enthusiasm, humour and chat absent. Not to be put off, the band, as per, roused through a finale that had them dancing in aisles and up in the seats above by the end. Things had to get better at Bristol. Did you go? What do you remember? |
