• Location / Tokyo, Japan
• Venue / Nippon Budokan

The first show by the band in this city since November 1995 on the Vault acoustic tour.

The fourth time at this famous venue and the first of two nights here.

Three nights had been played here in June 1993 on the Adrenalize tour.

The venue is located in the Chiyoda City ward in the city centre.

It was opened in October 1964 and originally built for use in the 1964 Summer Olympics as a Judo venue.

The venue name translates to Martial Arts Hall.

A decent quality audience recording exists from this show.
