There's a recording of this concert, which "only" features the songs in the Setlist section. 'Bring on the Night' is cut part way through and 'Bed's Too Big Without You' starts during the improvised section.

This concert demonstrates as well as any concert why Stewart Copeland is an outstanding drummer, with fantastic versions of 'Walking on the Moon', 'Deathwish' and 'Can't Stand Losing You'.
