*Original Notes*
One song is missing from the setlist, the 10th track would have been "Stop Swimming" but unfortunately, numerous skips and blips made thissong well beyond repair. Sadly, all known
sources of this recording seem to have the same defect on track ten. Also it seems that the encores,
"Dislocated Day" and "Radioactive toy", were not recorded. Aside from these missing numbers,
it is a perfect concert which fits neatly on one disk!

Set List:
01  Even Less
02  Piano Lessons
03  Waiting, Part 1
04  Up The Downstair
05  Don't Hate Me
06  Signify
07  Pure Narcotic
08  A Smart Kid
09  Voyage 34
10  The Colour of Air
11  I Find That I'm Not There
12  Wire The Drum

A superb, pristine soundboard recording
from Steven and the boys, 75:06 minutes in
length.

Taper Notes
Second show of my three show trip, second time I have seen them in this location and it was a brilliant show again. The band was on fire again, Steven Wilson has really grown into a charismatic frontman over the years. Gavin is an out of this world drummer, tight, technical yet still groovy to the wazoo. And I really appreciate that John Wesley is always trying to play something new in his solo parts. A great moment happened during Trains when Richard does some piano thing and the whole band throws smiles around with Steven grinning while singing. This scene repeats itself during Halo when Colin "slaps" on the bass and you can clearly hear Steven is smiling while he is singing the next words. Fun stuff, things you look for in a live performance :) Another fun thing was Steven's game before Trains when he asks "What do you want to hear?" and everybody is shouting out titles. One guy chose a particularly old track and Steven was going "What? Linton Samuel Dawson?...I think we'll do Trains, thank you."

The sound in the venue was very good, its actually a very wide but not very long venue so you get to stand really close to the stage. The advantage of this is that everything sounds very clear and not distant. The crowd was very respectful up until the encores when people starting to sign and shout along (which of course is fine). I think this beats the London recording and most certainly the Vienna recording I did the day after. Enjoy!

My note:
I'm NOT the guy who turned this from a flac file to a mp3! If anyone has the flac version of this please let us know!

Set List:
01 Fear of a Blank Planet
02 What Happens Now?
03 Lightbulb Sun

08 Dark Matter
09 Nil Recurring
10 Half Light
11 Way Ouf of Here
12 Sleep Together
----
13 Waiting (Phase One)
14 Trains
15 Halo

All thanks to the taper for this outstanding show!!

Running Time: about 2 hours
