NOTES
- 80 minutes
- Final performance of Everything Hurtz
- Set List derived from Set Lists FM
- Support was The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion
- A “back of the hall” recording of middling quality
- The American tour in the summer of 1993 was a gruelling one, involving greater distances than any of the group’s previous excursions to the States – twenty dates in a month, and in excess of 9000 miles’ travelled.
- There are conflicting reports about Karl Burns involvement on this tour. Dave Simpson implies he had already been sacked (The Fallen) whereas You Must Get Them All say “Burns had lobbied for more involvement there were two full drum kits on stage.” According to Steve Hanley, however, this double-drummer line-up was not recapturing the magic of the early 80s: ‘more competition than complement. They’re not gelling, they’re working against each other’.
- Allegedly Burns was sacked after the Chicago gig on 28 August for causing damage to his hotel room and leaving Smith to foot the bill.
