Timeline notes: Michael was booed while singing 'Moon River' at the start of the 3rd encore, & stopped singing & walked offstage.
Notes:
-Before There She Goes Again, MM(?) gives a crowd control announcement: Get off the chairs and clear the aisles. There is an edit in the tape after this annoncement before the song starts.
-MS Starts talking before Swan Swan H but it is edited out
-Lightnin' Hopkins is cut about 1:30 in. The track continues in silence until the 21:00 mark.
-MM before Superman "OK, every night I spend about three minutes convincing everyone that I'm Superman. But...this is Gary and he is Superman". So sounds like Gary Zekely on stage for this song.
-Before Auctioneer, MS "Picture in your mind a huge sphere, floating around in the air. Give it a neame: Earth. You take a shovel and start digging a hole, somewhere in New Mexico. You're of Yugoslavian descent. And you've been force to move thereto grow fruit trees in the desert. Sonn into the first spring you discover that it's a little too hot and there;s not enough water to grow fruit trees in the desert properly. So, you pull out your shovel and you dig a hole. With a plan to bury their own trees under the ground. You see you can make a room down there and you can put little cores through the rock so you can control the sunlight and you can carry buckets of water and dump it down the hole, control the water on the fruit trees. You like it a lot. It's rel cool down there, you stay out of the sun, which is very hot. Something you're not used to in Yugoslavia. So you dig a tunnel from this hole under the ground. You make another hole. 15 years later, you've got 131 holes connected by tunnels. A bathroom, a kitchen, a bedroom, a duplex to sublet to a college student (crowd cheers). The following is strictly rhetorical and does not require a response. Repeat, The following is strictly rhetorical and does not require a response. In each one of these 131 rooms, you put fruit trees to grow. And they nurture, and they bear fruit and you become the biggest fruit merchant in all of the desert. And your fruit is shipped all around the nation. But then you die. You're halfway in the middle of building a 700 yard tunnel, the first ever American-Italian underground restaurant, and you die. These men come along, after they've buried you in a mausoleum above the ground, somewhere in the southeast, and they say 'What are we gonna do with all these holes under the ground?' So they get this idea: they fill them all up with concrete except fot the first hole. They fill up that room except for the core. They keep the core going don and down and down. Picture a spere, floating in the air. There's a core that goes all the way down in the middle of the sphere. Down to the (?). Now, if you took physics 101, you'd know that if you were walking through the desert and theres a hole thast goes through the spere all the way into the core, you stepped into this hole, you start to fall. As you fall, you fall faster and faster. (?) carries you into the core of the sphere. By the time you reach the middle of the sphere, you're moving as fast as anything has ever moved before. Ever. You pass through the middle and you start slowing down, slowing down, and slowing down (PB's had enough, he starts the intro) Until you get to the other side of the sphere. You reach the crust, and you start to fall again".
-Most of Fall On Me is not here
-Source change for 20th Century Boy & RFE (goes from aud to sdb) probably filler with last two tracks missing.
Grade: C
-starts out pretty rough but gets better
