Thanks to Steve Muttenheimer, who adds, 'There might have been another encore … the tape ran out just after Repent ended.' The same setlist, exactly, also sent in by Tom Frohlichstein ... no extra encore.

'Procol did two shows that evening, back to back, and I was there for both of them. Unfortunately, I have lost any memorabilia from that  time but I see the setlist and it certainly looks right.   I remember walking up to the old movie theatre and hearing Mr Ball practising the opening to Shine on Brightly.  What a rush! I know for sure that was their opening number.   Though the setlists were almost the same, I'm pretty sure they did at least a couple of different tunes in their second show.  I stayed in the theatre between shows but I don't remember if I bought tickets for both.   I remember hunkering down so logic tells me I didn't – but no one told me to leave.   It was a great, intimate space to see Procol.' (thanks, Jim Krapf)
