Who was there for this?! I came across the (CD) bootleg of the show recently so have had it on in the car...
From memory there was a draw for tickets for the evening gig...but the number of entries was so big (I didn't get a ticket) they did a shorter set late afternoon too. Very small venue (now closed I think?) so really amazing/rare chance to get close to the band. A fair bit of AG in the set (not my fave album) but a great night...

Re: Fibbers, York -2004
I had a ticket for the afternoon show and managed to wangle my way in for the evening show.
A very low stage, if indeed it was raised at all. As mentioned, incredibly close to the band. Basically it was the right hand side of a pub.
The only time I've met Mr Spaceman who was having a smoke in some sort of courtyard behind/to the side of the venue.
Used to be in the Stonebow....

....which has been very much redeveloped since then.
Fibbers as a venue still exists but in a different part of the city and (I think) is closed due to Covid.
