Annie Whitehead), Little Red Riding Hood Hit the Road (arr. Annie Whitehead), Calyx (arr. Phil Miller), Fol de Rol (arr. Richard Sinclair), Memories (arr. Michel Delville), Alien (arr. Annie Whitehead), God Song (arr. Phil Miller), Was a Friend (arr. Michel Delville), O Caroline (arr. Dave Sinclair), Maryan (arr. Cristiano Calcagnile), Dondestan (arr. Gilad Atzmon), Forest (arr.

As far as I remember, the "Michel Delville guitar solo" was actually a Delville-Calcagnile duet, with Calcagnile playing not his usual percussion but electronics, while in his second duet of the night (with Atzmon) he played snare drum only.
