	MEMORIES
	Birmingham University concert was chosen by the band to debut one of their new songs, Ceremony. Just following his vocal on Decades, but before the song was finished, Ian stumbled off stage with assistance, and the band played on. He was able, however, to return for an encore, Digital (Source: Mark Johnson – An Ideal for living)
