The setlist is very similar to those played in Rome and Udine with the addition of The Emperor's New Clothes. But two important exceptions in a couple of songs: long, and infrequently-performed, drum solo by Mark on Whisky Train and a three-verse AWSOP (usually reseved for big occasions).

Full house attendance (some 800/900 people) and a very warm atmosphere. Standing ovations at the end of Homburg, A Salty Dog and, obviously, the two encores. Much better feeling than in Rome, confirmed by larger (double) receipts from the sale of merchandising (again managed by me). (thanks, Stefano)

The ticket scan was kindly sent in by Gianluigi Stella ... see the back of this ticket, below!
