Well.

I don't know what to say... or how to articulate it, but I will try.

This gig... This gig is just bad from start to finish. Yes, Liam is drunk. Yes, you hear a kazoo during Be Here Now and Stand By Me.

I dislike this gig, a lot. It's the final nail in the coffin of this Australia/New Zealand tour where it was doomed from the start. They disintegrated in two weeks, and this is what people paid actual money to see.

Oasis never stepped foot in New Zealand ever again. They killed any chance at a return.

Your first hint would be that kazoo. Liam loves the kazoo. No one knows where he got it, but he's got in his mouth. Holding it like a cigarette while he's singing before putting it back into his mouth. It's the worst Be Here Now I've ever heard. Off key, voice cracks and grated vocals.

Liam also complains about the noise after Roll With It and D'You Know What I Mean? It's not Liam who walks off though, it's Noel. Noel plays the opening extended riff while Liam still bangs about the noise, drops his guitar and walks out. The band come back, the crowd boos Liam. Gig carries on.

Gig reviews would later agree that the sound was terrible that night.

The tape fades out during It's Gettin' Better (Man!!). Most likely due to it running out of batteries.

There's is nothing of substance to listen to here. It's 73 minutes of white noise.
