The
annual tour of Germany was preceeded by three shows in Italy. The second show
however, was cancelled due to torrential rain. Sadly after a couple of years in
the band Chris Devine left and was replaced by Lord Marnen of Wolfhurst, as he
was referred to! Two new backing singers referred to as the Sisters of the Moon
replaced Lorraine Ferro.
Below
are all the dates known from this period.
If
a show, in part or full has been released on one or more bootlegs these are
listed in yellow.
All
