Recommended show

Stockholm June 9 and Brussels June 17.

Bob Talk

Well, I feel quite at home here actually. I was born and raised in Minnesota, where the Vikings landed long before Columbus did! Before Simple Twist Of Fate in Oslo, June 7.

Tapes

There are good and complete audience tapes from all shows.

[1] a show is unique if no other show has the same songs in the same order;

[2] a show is different from another show if the set of songs are different, regardless of order

[3] electric and acoustic versions are counted as different songs

[4] a song is counted as unique regardless of how it is performed

[5] variation is computed as the quote between number of different songs and mean number of performed songs
