Comments:
This is the first of a five night run at the NEC in Birmingham. This run is largely known due to being filmed and multi-tracked for the Mama tour video release, however none of this date was used for it.

Due to technical issues, the band end up only playing the first few bars to Eleventh Earl of Mar before suddenly stopping, and then trying again.

Tonight sees the last performance of Misunderstanding on the tour, as well as the introduction of Karma Chameleon to the Turn It On Again medley.

This soundboard misses everything after Follow You Follow Me.
