Notes

per Nick Bonny this may have been billed as "Robyn Hitchcock" but the setlist, containing many full-band songs, indicates the presence of the other Soft Boys. Hear My Brane, Pigworker and Heartbreak Hotel are circled, possibly indicating the use of strobe lights during these numbers.

Date listed on page 10 of Kimberley Rew's Soft Boys scrapbook, but not as 'Robyn Hitchcock', so may have been billed as The Soft Boys.
With Johnny Curious and The Z's
