Timeline notes: 'Exhuming McCarthy' was played as a fan request.

Notes:
-Standard intros: Electron Blue, LNY, IWTBW, IOL
-Heron House speed is so fast it sounds like a bluegrass cover version
-Setlist highlights: So Central (15), D@THH (10), Sweetness Follows (10)
-MS answers a fan after LNY "Well we never really went away, we just didn't come here for 10 years".  He goes on to note a fan's "I wanna be your dog" sign and asks if it is a sexual reference or a song request.  When told the latter, "Forget it.  We only play songs we wrote.  Maybe".
-Where LMR is supposed to be, track 5, there is niether LM or track 5
-MS asks the crowd for help singing Everybody Hurts.
-Before leading the audience in Happy Birthday, MS notes Bob has been with the band since 1989.  After the song and intros he notes SM is drinking Tooey's Extra Dry

-MS ends the night with the "Aussie, Aussie, Aussie" cheer.

Grade: F
-So Central (and the rest of the recording) has skips, static mic noise and speed issues.  This is mostly in the first 3rd of the set.  
-Bass is blown out too.
