Out of curiostiy - where is this setlist sourced from? I never saw a recording appear from that show and basically all setlists from that era are based on the available bootlegs...
though I was once told there'd be a video of it...

Sorry posted by thoughts on Galatasaray then thought better of it. Still wouldn't step foot in that stadium though.

We have lots of newspapers and magazines from the September 1993 and we all the Turkish fans know the setlist. This is the correct setlist.

I find it interesting that 13 out of the 18 songs in that setlist are being played regularly on the current tour.

Very true! Granted they are playing 3-7 more songs these days. But still interesting. You'd think in 20 years and twice as many albums, they'd push a little more newer material. By no means am I lobbying for Lost Highway, Work, or WGIGO... but they have written plenty of great songs since... okay entering familiar territory here.
