The Civic Hall Wolverhampton, UK (Aug/13/1997)

From: Tony Smith

Just returned from Verve Wolverhampton...............

What a group, for one thing, I hadn't appreciated the sheer musicianship (Nick must be *the* guitarist of his generation), or indeed the physical power and presence that they possess. That bass was soooo loud!

On stage for 90 minutes in all - the only point that it missed was with DDW: it seemed strangely out of place in the set and left the audience a bit flat. Soon made amends with all time favorites; I won't bore you with the running order. Oasis should prepare to be blown away at Hammersmith, with Verve on this form and the dodgy new Oasis material!
