Information
The gig was announced October 2003[1] and ticket sale started on 6th December.[2]
Balloons were released during Plug in Baby which brought a few giggles out of Matt, and Chris also jumped in the crowd during the first verse which seemed to knock his bass out of tune for much of the song.
While performing The Small Print, during and just after the first chorus, Matt can be seen visually gesturing to Chris to sing during the chorus in order to help Matt out. Matt had been noticeably struggling singing the chorus by himself during the early stages of the Absolution Tour and by this stage, Chris had indeed been partially singing the chorus along with Matt during a handful of prior performances for The Small Print in late 2003, but must have forgotten to do so on this occasion.
Media
A Japanese record company recorded the concert to later release a live CD under the name of Tokyo Syndrome.[4]
An audience audio recording in lossless (FLAC) format is available on MuseBootlegs here as well as an amateur video recording of the full performance here. There is a slight discrepancy with this recording, though. For this gig, the first encore song should be Blackout which matches with the aforementioned audience recording and the Tokyo Syndrome tracklistings. Instead, the amateur recording lists Feeling Good in place of Blackout which was actually the first encore song for the following gig at Shibuya AX. It is possible that it is simply mislabeled on the tacklisting info since everything matches the setlist for this gig. It is less likely that this recording was mistaken for following gig at Shibuya AX since the setlist for that gig is quite a bit different.
