The most unique gig of the entire tour. The third and final day at Dublin, and Liam isn't singing. Liam is angry, but he's been told by doctors to not sing. The second night in Dublin is just ok, but its the third night that stands out.
The setlist is why. My Big Mouth, Whatever, Cigarettes & Alcohol (which is crazy to say that this song is a rarity at this point in time) and the only ever performance of The Girl In The Dirty Shirt. And it's great that this performance was broadcast via radio. There are DJ comments throughout, so there are some fade ins and outs. The main broadcasts stop after The Girl In The Dirty Shirt, while another caught Live Forever and Wonderwall.
That being said, this performance is not complete.
In 2022, a plethora of setlists taken by collectors were posted to social media to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Be Here Now. One of the setlists, was the third night of Dublin, which featured this exact same lineup, but with Shakermaker and Acquiesce as the final two songs. I'm assuming, that despite Noel saying Wonderwall was the last song, they must've came back on stage for more songs, and a couple gig reviews confirm this as well. It's also said that Liam himself came out during Acquiesce, but didn't sing.
Written testimonies are great, but I would love to hear the audience recording of this. It's my belief that this show was taped, but it has never surfaced. Will we ever hear the full gig? I don't know.
