Notes: Keyboardist Justin Carroll has to leave the tour unexpectedly, so piano duty is covered at various times by soundman Leon O’Neill, saxophonist Michael Buckley and trumpeter Ronan Dooney. When Ronan first sits down at the piano, he jokingly plays ‘Chopsticks’. Glen says he should play a Michael McDonald song, so he has a go at it, with Graham on vocals. During ‘This Gift’, Glen pulls two girls onstage to dance with him.
