For the last two shows (Sicily and Ascoli), Impaled Nazarene does get their own instruments but the mixing consoles on both clubs are so dated that recording is impossible (no digital outputs on these mixing desks). The band cannot believe their shit luck.

Club security manages to wake him up with russian smelling-salts and by some miracle, the band performs 27 songs even if Sluti666 is half dead on stage.
The band decides to record the live album on December in Helsinki at the Tavastia club.
