Tower Theater, Philadelphia, USA
William, It Was Really NothingThe Smiths were very well received here, as in most places visited on this first North American tour. The above setlist corresponds to the typical main set on this leg of the "Meat Is Murder" tour. The encore songs and order are unknown except for the fact that the show ended with "Miserable Lie" during which several people in the closest rows jumped on stage and danced with Morrissey. Before that the Smiths might likely have played "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now", "This Charming Man" and "Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want".
