Comment : This is the show from which Three Sides Live was taken. Keep It Dark was performed on this tour, but this version is definatly not from this tour. The end of it runs into the beginning of It's Gonna Get Better. Apart from the fact that IGGB wasn't yet written, on the Genesis Tour (1983/84) it was Keep It Dark and IGGB were played one after the other. |
