what was the setlist?

I was at it. Can't remember the setlist now, but having seen many other shows on the tour, it was certainly the best show of the "Truth" era I saw. They were raw, pissed off, and all the soft edges of the sedate Arena tour were thoroughly destroyed. Apparently it was on BBC Interactive or whatever it was called at the time, and was definitely filmed, but I haven't seen any of the footage.

Youtube.com would probably be your best bet for finding footage.

They also played "Prologue To History" about 11th in the set, which is not on the bootleg CD. One of the very few times they did play it.

Yes It was shown live on tv, I remember watching the first 5 songs I think on The BBC Choice channel.
Watching the Wire ranting Live on tv is one of the reasons I love this band.

there was that rant where the wire told the guy at the front who was looking at his watch to 'fuck off home.' and then he slagged off stereophonics as well. didnt they get banned from t in the park after T99.

Yeah it had cos I remember watching it on telly at the time. It wasn't anything as extensive as the coverage you get now, a short interview with Nicky and 2 songs maybe. Remember I was about 10 at the time so I may be wrong

Yes, it sounded awful. Naysmith and his pesky keyboard imps saw to that.

I can vaguely remember seeing the start of the set on some TITP highlight show.

James came on, shouted "F A S T E R Faster", started playing, the audience jumped up and down during the intro, then looked at each other as if to say "I don't know this one, do you?"
