Seems like a very short set list for that tour. Was it perhaps a radio broadcast and the set was curtailed to fit or has it been edited?
Just wondering. Be good, though, to have a live version of One Man Band.

Be good, though, to have a live version of One Man Band. Nothing edited / omitted. It was a weird period during the RTYD tour. Hold You Back was in and out of the set, and some nights they completely dropped the medley from Roadhouse Blues. It was also around the time that the likes of Fakin' The Blues and No Problems were dropped and nothing replaced them. |

It was also around the time that the likes of Fakin' The Blues and No Problems were dropped and nothing replaced them. To be honest, that's the sort of thing many of us have been clamouring for. For quite a long time. Shaking the set up on a regular, maybe even a nightly, basis. The chances of that are long gone of course. And I guess there would still be criticism. Why did you drop that? Why did you bring in this? |

Here's one example of them dropping the medley from Roadhouse Blues -
Also one of the last few shows to have Fakin' The Blues and No Problems still in the set

Do soundboard recordings exist of every track that they actually played live from the Rock 'Til You Drop album? Would love to hear a soundboard recording of Like A Zombie but I'm guessing one doesn't exist.

That tour was odd in the sense that, after it was finished in the run up to Christmas in 1991, suddenly there was another gig thrown in for us to attend at Livingston Forum in early 1992. There may have been others added, I don't know.
But this one just appeared tagged on the end of the '91 tour. It may not even have been listed on the back of the t-shirts. It was a great gig and I can't recall specifically what they played but I'm almost sure Like A Zombie was in there. It was basically an unexpected bonus. A relatively small venue packed to the rafters.
A gig I'd actually sort of forgotten about until I read this thread.

Would love to hear a soundboard recording of Like A Zombie but I'm guessing one doesn't exist. Just:- One Man Band (Offenbach Stadthalle, 4th April 1992) Rock 'til You Drop (Offenbach Stadthalle, 4th April 1992) Can't Give You More (Les Nuls L'emission, TV Appearance) Let's Work Together (Rock 'til You Drop Event, Glasgow SECC & Birmingham NEC) The Price Of Love (Rock 'til You Drop Event, Sheffield) Forty Five Hundred Times (Wembley Arena, 16th December 1990) Like A Zombie, Fakin' The Blues, and No Problems missed out on being pro-recorded. Quite surprised they didn't play Like A Zombie at one of the RTYD event shows. |

Well, for me make sense, the album wasn't released yet, and no songs from the album were played on any of the gigs except two covers. It could be played on the Wembley Arena, like saying "We are like zombies after 4 gigs". |
