Billy was one of the only performers at this show that was true to the acoustic format. He was accompanied only by Michael Garson on piano for a few songs. Billy unveiled two new songs. To Sheila was played at a faster tempo than usual. This marked the first time Rotten Apples was played live, and the first time in a long time Disarm was played. Billy was one of two performers to play an encore. He joined Depeche Mode for thier encore of "Never Let Me Down Again," a song the Pumpkins covered live and on record in 1993.
