Shaun: "Disaster! It really is a Methodist Hall! No bar. No beer allowed. A bizarre venue. All band, crew and punters crammed into 2 nearby dingy downmarket pubs, with intermittent Scousers popping in attempting to sell all manner of stolen goods! That’s what it’s all about!!
In the gig there’s about 10 minutes instrumental of ‘Grudgeful’ before Smith emerges - drunk, but in good humour!!
One lad jumps on stage to give him a light -- a pantomime that lasts about two minutes!!"
Thanks to Robert Wilkinson for the ticket.

Richard Harvey: "The 17th May Wolverhampton gig wasn't in the Wulfrun Hall, it was in the Civic Hall. Same building, but different room. The Civic Hall is the bigger room, the Wulfrum smaller, holding only 1,000. The tribute band The Australian Doors were playing in the Wulfrun that same night, hence MES' comment at the start of the gig:
"We are the Fall, we are not Australian. .. at all!!"
They did about three songs as an VERY belated encore, after most of the audience had left! I seem to remember they did them with the houselights on (at least for the first part), as there was only a hundred or so people left in the hall. Very odd."
