Show Notes
- The concert was originally scheduled for September 13, 1995, but was postponed following Guigsy's departure due to nervous exhaustion. His temporary replacement, Scott McLeod, previously played guitar with the Ya Ya's, a band Oasis had supported in their early days. Smaller were the support act.
- The concert took place on the day Oasis released their second album, '(What's the Story) Morning Glory?'.
- 'Rockin' Chair' received its first documented complete live performance, following an aborted attempt at the Virgin Megastore the previous night. 'Round Are Way' also made its live debut, incorporating parts of The Beatles' 'Got to Get You into My Life' and Oasis' 'Up in the Sky'.
- Noel performed an acoustic section featuring 'Wonderwall', 'Fade Away' and 'Cast No Shadow'. This was the first documented concert performance of 'Wonderwall' on the Morning Glory tour, following the in-store set at the Virgin Megastore the previous night.
- The Empress Ballroom opened in August 1896 as part of Blackpool's Winter Gardens complex. It was designed by architects Mangnall & Littlewood and was one of the largest ballrooms in the world at the time.
