Notes:
-Before HST MS offers a standard intro. When some of the crowd cheers MS "Is that applaudable?" He adds "I have good news, it's not as scary as we thought".
-Before The Ascent Of Man PB informs MS that it is the first time the song has been played in Europe.
-MS after Great Beyond "thsank you very much" thenremembers he wasn't going to say that.
-Fantastic setlist to close out the winter leg.
-Before Worst Jooke MS notes the familiar faces from the fan club who have been following the tour and that they are honoring the request for the song "Which has been written on bedshhets as far as I can tell".
