  • Location / London, England
  • Venue / Hammersmith Odeon

A second night in this city and at this venue.

The 10th time at this venue and second of three nights here.

The venue is located in the Hammersmith area of the city next to the Hammersmith Flyover/A4 road and not far from the River Thames and Riverside Studios which the band would play in June 1999 for the 'TFI Friday' TV show.

It was opened in March 1932 as the Gaumont Palace.

It was then given its most famous name of Hammersmith Odeon from 1962 to 1992.

After that it became Labatt's Apollo (1992-1996), Hammersmith Apollo (1996-2002, 2006-2009 and 2013), Carling Apollo Hammersmith (2002-2006), HMV Hammersmith Apollo (2009-2012).

It was redeveloped in 2013 when it was given its current name of Eventim Apollo.

'Armageddon It' replaced 'Hysteria' in the setlist and made it's Tour Debut.

Also the first time it was played in England and the UK.

'Don't Shoot Shotgun' and 'Wasted' were played in place of 'Tear It Down' from night one.

A decent quality audience recording exists from this show.
