Summary by Christian Arvidson

The venue for this evening was "Rockefeller". A nice place but quite small (1300 persons approx.). It was a sold out show. The Morrissey gig was good. Nothing really special happened this evening except that "Teachers Are Afraid" was on the original band set list after "The More You Ignore Me". "Shoplifters" was supposed to be the encore and "London" was never supposed to been played. When it was time to play "Teachers" Boz went up to Moz and said something to him close to his ear. After that they went ahead and played "Shoplifters". Morrissey had a signed banana (!) with him on stage and before "London", Morrissey said "Here have a banana" and threw the banana to the audience. Since we were at the front row, my friend Daniel managed to catch it. Too bad a real signed banana isn't everlasting, but we've got a photo of it. We were very pleased after this evening cause Morrissey played other songs than on the two previous nights.

Summary by Bernt Erik Pederson

Audience approx 1100, capacity 1300

No particularly interesting incidents or comments from last night's rather dismal Morrissey performance, apart from "Oslo, have a banana" whereupon he threw the audience a banana. Clever.
