Notes:
-CDR has lots of skips and should be tossed.
-Before Drive MS states that the amphitheater makes him feel tall and that he is 5'9 and a half. He also notes that this comment is directed at MM, who mumbles a reply.
-Before Animal MS tells of having to flee a pizza place in Napoli and suggests everyone read the Italian new if they need a good laugh.
-MS asks for a monitor adjustment, stating he can't hear his voice before Fall On Me. He goes on to note the song was a request. After the song he rambles about his shirt, his shoes, introduced Bob Whittaker to the crowd, comments on the stickyness of Coca-Cola, children, the beauty of the south of France and that he wrote the next song at the age of 20.
-Before Bad Day MS apologizes for drinking from a bottle "But they don't let me have a glass on stage. That's Peter's glass". He goes on to a standard intro applauds France for their position against the Iraq war.
-TOIL is sent out to the road crew.
-MS states I've Been High is his request
-Standard intro to LMR
-Before Electrolite MS tells his story about convincing people that Edgar Allen Poe was alive & delivering pizzas in the 1940's in Philadelphia. I recall a previous tour (95?) where he was the victim of this scenario. After Everybody Hurts MS spends a couple minutes naming off places people are visiting from. There is a group of Spanish fans and he apologizes for no tour stops there. He also suggests people should smoke, or not smoke "I don't give a fuck".
-Country Feedback solo 2:29
-During band intros, MS makes fun of MM's shirt and informs him they are playing a song (Orange Crush) that isn't on the setlist
