Don´t wonder. In Tokyo they played the whole song, too :lol:
So something has to be wrong with Mr. Chevrons post.

No really, we don't. We never do more than three or four of the verses. Three usually.

It's a very long song. Live, the Rum, Sodomy version is too demanding of audience patience and band concentration. We did not play the full title in Tokyo or Munich or anywhere else.

I have both the Bootlegs from Tokyo and Melbourne, and there they played both the same versions.

Both times verses 3 and 4 where missing. In Munich last year verse 3 was played additionally. About verse for, where they collected cripples and wounded, i dont know, i stopped filming after V3 and my brain tells nothing about such details from this evening ;) :D

So its right, whats Mr. C tells us :roll: :D

Sometimes Shane conflates or ellides the events of the song in order to keep the story coherent and chronologically plausible while losing most of two verses. Usually this works very well but, just occasionally, we inadvertently hear about the crippled, wounded, maimed and disfigured before a shot has been fired in anger.
