Manchester 12 september 2002   Manchester Evening News Arena.
Puddle of Mudd opened up the set at about 8:00 playing several songs from there new debut album 'come clean' and played for about an hour finishing with 'blurry' she fucking hates me' and then wrapping it up with 'control'. after a huge crowd raw of applause Puddle of Mudd left the stage. after Puddle of Mudd it was about an hour and 20 mins to wait for Korn to take the stage. when Jon's mike stand was carried out onto the stage the crowd went wild. Mexican waves flew around the stands as the crowd became impatient. My seats were  at the right side of the stage and before the lighting in the arena was cut i saw the band walk out towards the stage. Both the right and left side of the crowd went crazy and we were the only ones who saw them walk out. Jon looked straight up into our stand and waved up before the lights were cut and the band ran onto stage opening to 'here to stay' there crowd went mental, i had a perfect view looking down on munky as he would  wave up at us and then flip us off. They then continued to play an extended version of 'twist' continuing with 'trash' 'bottled up inside' 'dead bodies everywhere' 'a.d.i.d.a.s' 'no ones there' then as they began the intro to 'blind' Jon shouts, when i shout are you ready i want you to tear this fucking place down Manchester'.. the crowd down in the pit going fucking crazy. then they played 'faget' 'one more time'  and then 'make me bad' when half way through fading it into a verse of Metallicas 'one'. 'falling away from me' a huge cheer for 'thoughtless' followed by 'freak on a leash'. They then played 'somebody someone' and then walked of stage with a massive applause. After about two minutes Jon marched back onto the stage with the bag pipes and they played 'shoots and ladders' wrapping it up with 'got the life'.
