Sorry Mitch , but in my humble opinion the 2 Paradiso shows cant Match up with the 1 Brixton Academy show , music / show /set list wise ...,

Sorry but I think the opposite, venue, setlist and performance point of vue.
But I understand the fact you attended this show can influence your point of vue.

Got a copy and it is excellent for modern era shows.

The 'Dam shows were one-of-a-kind experimental unique affairs.

Brixton was more or less a stadium show played indoor = nothing really special in my book. Ok it's nice but nothing more and the playing is a bit tired/bored imo.

Brixton was very good and for the people inside a very special show of course but indeed had a not so special setlist compared to the Paradiso gigs. The Paradiso shows...it was pure magic in all aspects and the second show just a little better imho.
I really saw lots of shows but Paradiso man...probably their best shows ever. I wouldn't be surprised if they still think so themselves!

That row of songs can hardly be classified as a trad. stadium gig, moved indoors.

Didn't they play Still A Fool as well, or was that Amsterdam?

Only the second night at the Paradiso. More important is that they completely skipped the warhorses in Paradiso which made it fresh and extremely special. And on top of that it was the first time ever LARS was played by them in a concert.

I never worked during shows :-) but to me this was and still is just the best of everything I saw or heard of the RS in my life.
20 and 23 songs without warhorses, in an acoustically brilliant club with a fantastic atmosphere, a very warm and supportive audience, KR still able to play very very good, MJ shining as always and vocally brilliant, CW & RW also in great shape, the rest of the musicians were supportive as they should be, LARS performed for the first time, great interaction between everyone and between band and audience like everyone was on stage or something...everyone was having fun crew included.
May 27th 1995 should have been the last gig...know what I mean?

But maybe you wouldn't have attended all those shows otherwise?

I should have said it different , my bad ...You have a point , but when I read some reactions , I think by myself they dont know what they are talking about ( a a stadium show set list ?) , but understand they post to get a reaction or are truly without knowledge

Just a shout out to Deltics for putting up the concert. It's kept me company off and on these past few days and I couldn't ask for better. Thank you most kindly!
