CommentsThis is the first of his three nights in Amsterdam. Great quality. The show was in the Heineken Music Hall, a brand new hall specially built for amplified sound. And it pays off! No echo whatsoever.

Special was the final encore 'Going Home'. He hadn't played it for the whole tour until now! The crowd was shouting 'we want more, we want more' after 'So Far Away', he just couldn't walk off :-)

And there's even more, instead of 'Sailing To Philadelphia' he played 'Baloney Again'. Pretty strange that he left the main song of the tour out.

Only flaw is that the first part of the intro of Calling Elvis is missing.

This recording has also been released as a 'real' bootleg (the ones you buy at a record fair) under the name 'Going To Amsterdam 2001'.
