May 9, 1969
Southampton University, England
Transcribed by Phil Salathe
AD starts; sounds like Roger might announce it, but it's virtually
inaudible if so. Roger screams after the first verse; during the second
"Stars can frighten" he lets out a strange shriek.
Applause.
Roger: Thank you.
Tuning.
Roger: This is a much newer thing than that one, which is very old...and
it's an instrumental, and it's called Careful With That Axe, Eugene.
Bit more tuning, low chatter.
Roger: And it's got a very quiet start.
CWTA,E starts, low chatter still audible. Roger doesn't make many
noises other than the main scream, except a bit in the last parts of the
song; at the very end he makes odd strangling noises.
Applause; straight into IO, without any tape cut or tuning.
After IO:
Roger: Thank you. Thank you!
Into GitC, with a bit of feedback at the start. This version is
notable as it uses acoustic guitar at the start, is a lot more like the
More version than most versions of this song -- very laid-back -- and
most importantly, does not go into CWTA,E per se. It sounds like Gilmour
might sing "...dress that SHE wore." Gilmour scats a bit between
the second and third verses.
After the third verse, Gilmour scats a bit more, then the song goes
into a backbeat groove that eventually evolves into something not unlike
the studio version of CWTA,E.
Applause.
Roger: Thank you.
Tuning, tape cut, mikes on stage moved around a bit.
Roger: This is gonna be the last thing we do, and it's the title
track off the album we just released, and it's called a Saucerful of
Secrets.
Applause.
ASoS starts. At the beginning, very faint trumpets can be heard,
playing in another room.
Dave ends aSoS on the "low note", D-sharp to B.
Applause.
Roger: Thank you.
Fades.
