Tonight was the final show at the Circo Massimo/Circus Maximus, the venue saw some heavy rain in the earlier part of the night, but thankfully went away just before showtime! We suspect there was filming tonight as with the previous two nights, for a future release. The setlist remained the same as it was the previous two nights, with “Sings” remaining in the set, which now nearly covers the entire new album, Luck and Strange! The band and production are now headed off to London, for six shows next week at the Royal Albert Hall.
Set 1: 5 A.M., Black Cat, Luck and Strange, Speak To Me/Breathe, Time/Breathe (Reprise), Fat Old Sun, Marooned, Wish You Were Here, Vita Brevis, Between Two Points, High Hopes
Set 2: Sorrow, The Piper’s Call, A Great Day For Freedom, In Any Tongue, The Great Gig In The Sky, A Boat Lies Waiting, Coming Back To Life, Dark and Velvet Nights, Sings, Scattered
Encore: Comfortably Numb
Capacity: TBC
The Circus Maximus (Latin for greatest or largest circus, in Italian Circo Massimo) is an ancient Roman chariot racing stadium and mass entertainment venue located in Rome, Italy. Situated in the valley between the Aventine and Palatine hills, it was the first and largest stadium in ancient Rome and its later Empire. It measured 621 m (2,037 ft) in length and 118 m (387 ft) in width and could accommodate over 150,000 spectators. In its fully developed form, it became the model for circuses throughout the Roman Empire. The site is now a public park.
