Song details

• The song "Tinto Brass" was also performed, but was left off the album to make the rest of it fit on to one disc. It is available as a free download from the Porcupine Tree store. It was originally placed between "Stop Swimming" and "Voyage 34" on the set list.

• The song "Lightbulb Sun" was the last, probably unplanned encore, played after "Signify", but was later moved to the middle of the record for a better flow.
