As far as I can tell from the bootlegs I have, it wasn't played in 1983 (along with most of the songs that were performed with Fast Eddie) and from 1989 to 1991, when Philthy couldn't (or wouldn't) play it anymore. Apart from that, Overkill has been in the set continuously from 1992, when Mikkey joined the band.

I wouldn't be suprised if it won't be on future setlists. _________________________ MHB 3039 -- After listening for over 30 years, searching and waiting for alternatives, I understood that there will be no other band like Motörhead. Never.

Ozone member Registered: 09/13/08 Posts: 145 Loc: Sweden	In march 1987 they came back onstage to play Overkill but left again cause Philthy got cramp in his legs! I remember Phil C getting really pissed off cause of this. Würzel told me about the cramp in Lund a few days later. It was played pretty fast with Peter Gill, as most songs were back then! _________________________ IN THE WESTERN MOVIE
