Notes
The opening night of the band's first headline UK tour. This was the last time the band would play at Eric's before it closed later in the year. A new version of Eric's opened in September 2011 and OMD were the first band to play there.

Live Recording
There are doubts about the venue details (and therefore the date too) for this recording. I have seen this listed as Bristol 27th February 1980 and Bristol 24th September 1980 - the set list does not match up for September but it does fit with February. 

An average quality recording of the full set. Andy says "Being a 4 piece is new to us..." at the start of the second 'Bunker Soldiers', also saying that some of their equipment has packed up so they had to drop some songs from the set, including 'The Messerschmitt Twins'.
