Yes...

Thanks, I found it in the report thread, plus amazing description of the Warsaw sound check... Now let's wait for the bootleg!

The Flood was there. That's a front row confirmation.

Maarten, please ignore my previous comments about "The Flood" in Warsaw. According to Bonn 79, who has access to recordings of the concerts, and to Artur quoted above, (we have to defer to Front Row People, don't we - after all, I was only in the second row ) "the Flood" did feature in Warsaw. Perhaps I was being so intimidated by OTT security people that I didn't notice it, or more likely I have always considered "The Flood" a waste of space anyway - the kind of thing like if Leonard came out and read the weather forecast, some fans would exclaim "How wonderful !!! "

TipperaryAnn,
Thanks for the note, but I had already checked the Warsaw bootleg and it has indeed The Flood featured. No problem about confusing us, it's good to see some people check my lists for mistakes, I really appreciate the effort!

Take care,
Maarten

Maarten,
While editing the second version of Hannover, I found out NEVER GOT TO LOVE YOU was there already...

a.

Artur,
Thanks for the info, I checked this bootleg too (LTC recording) but who am I to doubt you?! I have edited my file and will upload a newer version soon.

Another update of my file now that the European shores are left behind...

Please have a look at the final European concerts, because I have added some "Never Got To Love You" 's and the other poems (Invictus, Dover Beach), but I'm not sure they're all in the right place... I still need a setlist for Moscow (Tom, have you got something?) too. I only added the poems mentioned by Tom, but I know the setlist should be shorter, right?

Thanks,
Maarten

My best effort on the Moscow setlist:

Just got home from Sydney - limited computer access while away.
The printed Set List from Monday 8-Nov-2010 is the same as the earlier ones from NZ and Aust, except it has "Sydney" and the date on it.
Shall I scan it and upload it?
The actual play list is as DCE has already reported.

Yes please Alan. I love to see the "official" setlists as well as reading the list of songs actually played.
