Review:
This was PiL's first gig after the Benicàssim Festival and Lydon immediately sets the record straight by telling the crowd; "Rumours of our demise have been exaggerated! Thank you NME - wrong again!"
This is probably one of the best audience recordings from the UK leg of the tour, along with Liverpool.
Unfortunately this is another bootleg that is slightly blighted by annoying attendees. Particularly one twat who constantly rasps; "You fucking cunt!" throughout the show, to which Lydon replies; "Say something nice for us, go on!"
Also during Warrior there seems to be a bit of a barney between a few people that drags on for a few minutes, making it extremely difficult to concentrate on what Lydon is saying to the crowd. Very annoying.
As mentioned the quality is excellent and its a hugely entertaining bootleg.
