Taking Everything First Drag Of The Day I Hate Alternative Rock Stand Guard Classifieds Hear Me Calling Art Crisis Anymore Time Between Skintrade Eternally Fried Roll Over And Die Lonely Afternoon Egøverride Reflecting Pool Disappointed Hanging Tree See A Little Light Man On The Moon Band: Bob Mould -- guitar, vocals Michael Cerveris -- rhythm guitar, backing vocals Jim Wilson -- bass, backing vocals Matt Hammon -- drums Thanks to Mark Weygandt, from whose website (now defunct) this information was retrieved, along with the informal show reviews and comments below, which were originally posted to the Sugar internet mailing list: -------------------------------------- From: Kieron Perry Bob's last electric show in London also turned out to be Michael Cerveris's last with the band. Bob has asked him to leave as he wants to finish as he started it - a three piece. Bit late in the day to decide that? Anyway, show was okay and was recorded by the B.B.C. for boradcast on Radio 1. High point of the show was Bob nearly falling over after leaping off of the drum riser during Art Crisis. ---------------------- From: Eoin McCarthy Nothing much to add to this, except to say I thought Mercury Rev were great. As for Bob, well, I couldn't really ask for a much better setlist, the band was unbelievably tight, Hanging Tree was spectacular. Only problem was the vocal mix, which was pretty poor for all three bands. Probably something to do with me standing in front of the left guitar monitor. ---------------------- From: Liesbeth Rijnierse The gig was awesome. I will never again complain about too loud, because this gig was at a bearable volume level. The only thing I could wish for was that I could compile the setlist, because my taste is somewhat different from Bob's and I missed a lot of my faves. But hell, he closed with Man On The Moon so that was good enough for me. ---------------------- From: Paul Holmes Not perhaps the synapse-shredding, ear-exploding barrage I had hoped for but pretty durn good nonetheless. The Forum show was marred by a muddy sound but the songs and the atmosphere transcended this. Indeed Bob was obviously moved by the crowd's reaction and at the end he just stood there, blinking in the spotlight, drinking in the emotion. Highlights were an achingly beautiful Anymore Time Between; the tumbleweed lament of Eternally Fried and a hypercharged Moving Trucks. ----------------------- From: Vasilis Kilikoglou The gig was excellent and Bob was in perfect form and definately better mood than the SUGAR gig 4 years ago in Portsmouth(FUEL tour). Only complaint the not so clear sound of the venue, at least in the front rows. Only regret I didn't go to Paris 2 days later to see the Paris show too. Highlights:Anymore Time Between was emotionally tensed, Disappointed (personal favorite some years ago), I Hate Alternative Rock, Man on the Moon, See a little light.
