67 known mogwai shows, including the first dates outside the uk (norway, france, belgium, usa). this list is incomplete, particularly the scottish dates. full or partial setlist details for 31 shows. brendan o'hare joins in may and leaves in august.
notes: live debuts for 'yes! i am a long way from home', 'like herod', 'katrien', 'radar maker', 'tracy', 'summer [priority version]', the finished version of 'r u still in 2 it?', 'mogwai fear satan' (all released on 'mogwai young team' in october 1997) plus 'christmas steps' and 'waltz'.
a number of tracks (helicon 1, summer, mogwai fear satan) well established in the set, and will remain so ten years later.
the only known live showings for 'guardians of space' and 'now you're taken'. 'summer (priority version)' would next appear live in 2008. 'r u still in 2 it?' appears both as an instrumental and, at the end of the year, with aidan moffat on vocals. final appearances for 'lower'.
it's believed there were some attempts to play 'superheroes of bmx' live during the may/june uk tour, but no record of this survives and the track wouldn't appear again until 1999.
