Notes (from 5H):
The show was broadcast on the radio throughout Australia, and on the internet in
real time on JJJ. As is typically the case, the shows get better on second or
third nights, and PJ's third show in Melbourne is tremendous.
Ed slips in a tribute to the late Michael Hutchence during 'In My Tree' ("I'm
so high I hold just one breath, give it to INXS, just like my innocence"). Some
guitar chords from Midnight Oil's 'Beds are Burning' lead to a wonderful
version of 'Corduroy,' which includes the little stop/start thing during the
bridge towards the end. Ed's wonderful baritone comes through on 'Wishlist'
and the "Camaro" line is changed to "I wish I was the full moon shining off
your bulldozer's hood," plus "I wish I was the sound, of 50 million hands
upraised for Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan," and "I wish I was lucky man ... well I
guess that I am ... I wish I could share with my friends, oh how many things
that I have." 'Even Flow' again awesome, featuring really extended soloing from
Mike; very prolific and a manic version of 'StBC' (dedicated to "... all those
who work at Triple J and the guys who work at PBS"). The 'Daughter' tag ("poor
little girl screaming traffic in her hair ...") is a Shudder To Think song
titled 'Pebbles.' A couple of verses from 'Crazy Mary' lead to 'Small Town.'
'Porch' leads off as the slower version (like Bridge '96), but later speeds
into the more familiar, rocked out version.
