Classics such as ‘West End Girls’, ‘Suburbia’, ‘Go West’ and ‘Always on my Mind’ feature on the tracklist. A new booklet is also included in the packaged, featuring candid tour photos and an exclusive on-tour diary by Neil Tennant.

Chris Lowe said at the time: “We’re more free-spirited on this tour. We party on down. It’s not a totally choreographed, staged and rehearsed show. I suppose it is more rock ‘n’ roll in its attitude. You get to express yourself. (Laughs). And to take your clothes off.”

Neil Tennant added: “In the past we were always removed from the audience by theatrical convention. This time we are us onstage.”
