Show Notes: Night 2 of 5 saw another very enthusiastic crowd treated to quite a few different songs to night 1, with 2 new songs in the set, a repeat of Lazarus from night 1 which is truly a spellbinding song live (that guitar solo!), and a song called Goodnight, appropriately left for the second encore. "Only" 2 encores tonight, we'll have to try harder for show 3!

Recording Notes: I was in the centre section on an aisle for night 2, and the sound was excellent, right in the sweet spot which the old trusty Nokia has captured brilliantly. Truly one of my best recordings, and the best of the run of shows I captured of this tour. Enjoy!
