Strange, I tipped it into my phone whilst with him in Budapest, and now I cannot find it... ;(

Are you sure it was  Elian's number  you got in Budapest 

yes? ...of course..

Apparently, what happens in Budapest, stays in Budapest.  Even phone numbers.

We mostly read if a gig was good, the best ,dull, same or different setlist etc.......and that's OK

But I also wanted to read that there was a POWERCUT during "What it is", in Nimes, nobody can miss that (though I am glad I can bring something first...don't tell me it was left out for me my dears)
Just like  the Irish  tune "Marie's Wedding"  ,which I posted about in The Halle ,West-falen topic , that Mark and John
add into the outro of "What it is" since Rennes ! .

So here the power-cut @ 02.09 and a nice improvisation by Mark and John this time in Nimes of the Irish tune "Marie's Wedding" during the "What it is" outro. @05.22.
Jeroen don't forget to mention it in the additional comments

About " What It Is ".........I think the version on this tour is the best I've ever heard. On earlier tours this song had never worked for me.
The album version is in top five for me when it comes to the solo material made by Mark. Nice to hear a live version that I really like

2001 versions were best;  he misses out half the lyrics now and the song sounds a bit empty in parts.  Original guitar too!
