this show was quite a bit more sedate than the bologna affair, though he
did torque the energy level up for a few songs. paolo had the
record-level set a bit too high, which is a shame because it was a
damned fine show. when robyn's toured the continent in the past, he's
usually stuck with quite similar setlists. but as we can see, such was
not the case this time around, leastwise not for these two particular
shows.
according to "the asking tree", this is the first time Swirling has been
performed since 3/1/92! absolutely beautifully, too. i'm wondering
what the record is for longest gap between performances of a given song?
heh heh, is there a way to ask robynbase to search for that, john?
The Lizard was stunning. and *then* he tacked a monster Freezesque
guitar solo onto the end of it! wow!
