Concert Notes

In August 2023, an audio clip and full setlist for this show were finally shared.
This appears to confirm that You've Got Everything Now and Reel Around The Fountain were given their live debuts on this night. It should be noted, however, several concerts prior do not have setlist either and could have featured these songs.
Morrissey's introduction to Reel Around The Fountain:

"This song is about sex... which is why you are here".

Please note: The review notes The Hand That Rocks The Cradle was played, but the cassette via the soundboard doesn't list this song.
