The second show at Nighttown within a year. And a lot less inspired, we'd like to add. The solo performances by Butch (Your Lucky Day In Hell and Exodus Pt.III) got the crowd extatic. They wanted more. Unfortunately there wasn't more. Quite often the EELS return when the houselights are on... but not tonight.

Before the show it was rumoured that the band and their crew had been pulled over by the Dutch borderpolice for a drug control. This rumour was spread by Dutch music station TMF, where it was announced during their news item Factory Facts. The rumour was false, but it never became clear how TMF got the information in the first place. After the show the band sat behind the venue in front of the tourbus, signing stuff and chatting with fans.
