In Amsterdam and Rotterdam they opened with Fat Camp, in Utrecht with Sreamager (have they EVER opened with Screamager before???, not to my knowledge), in Groningen they opened a bit Queen-ish, though (not meant as an insult however). Starting with Little Tongues First you heard the guitar intro first on tape while the band walked on stage and after a ‘couple of intro’s’ they actually started playing themselves (which made my trip to Groningen worthwile). One more tip to everyone desperate for a set-list at the end of the show (it’s just a piece of paper!!! I’m kidding I also long for them when I can’t sleep (???), but here’s my tip: DON’T FUCKIN’ DO IT! Why??? Last March at their gig in Luxembourg I got hold of the setlist and guess what? I found out they first wanted to play SKYWARD AND PUNISHMENT KISS (!!!) and another one as their last three songs, but no they suddenly didn’t feel like it anymore and played DIANE instead (out of all songs…). They replaced those gems with one, ONE, song. So by getting hold of the set-list you actually KNOW what you’ve missed! Which brings me to the next anecdote, one of the most amazing moments in ‘my T?-career’, y’know whadd’I mean, right?, was the fact they opened their 1996 show at the Pinkpop festival with Punishment Kiss. Broadcasted on TV and radio in The Netherlands and Belgium, about 60,000 people in attendance, right after the huge Infernal Love tour, and they open with the B-SIDE of their very first single!!! Fucking amazing!!! Cheers again, bye for now,

They opened Rock Werchter in 1996 with Punishment Kiss as well. I’ve got it on a bootleg. Th whole crowd was looking like … what the fuck … a few motherfuckers were headbanging all over the place … including this one …
I really want those old songs to come back on the playlist. I heard Skyward on the acoustic gig in Brussels and it was great. I was going insane when they played Evil Elvis at Rock Ternat. People liked it, even if they didn’t know the song.
Gimme some more of that B.T.,P.D. and Nurse material on the next gig !!!

Saw Therapy? at a secret fan club gig in a pub in Dublin
in April 96, and they started with Punishment Kiss and then
Skyward - the place went apeshit. There was only about 50
people there but the ceiling (they played upstairs) was about
to cave in so they had to stop the gig. That was Graham’s first
gig and what an introduction. As far as I’m concerned Therapy?
have not played with a better setlist than 1996/97. Back then
they played Nausea, Innocent X, Punishment Kiss, Skyward, Bad
Mother, Misery, Stop It etc… Oh, the memories!
