| 18/8/74 | Nagoya-city Koukaido | Nagoya, Japan |
Listed in 1974 tour programme, though that only indicates that a concert had been booked when the programme was printed, not necessarily that it was played. Tull tour programmes have been known to list dates subsequently cancelled or rescheduled. | ||
| 19/8/74 | Kyoto Kaikan Daiichi Hall | Kyoto, Japan |
See 18/8 note. | ||

| 14/10/74 | Voorst Nationaal | Bruxelles, Belgium |
| 16/10/74 | ? | Marseille, France |
The tour schedule lists a second concert in Grenoble on this date, and this Marseille show on 18 Oct. However, an audience member clearly recalls attending a Tull concert at the Palais des Sports in Besançon (between Grenoble and Colmar) on 18 Oct. It is most likely that one of the Grenoble concerts was cancelled (this one) and Marseille was played earlier. Note: unconfirmed! A newspaper review claims to be of the 16/10 Grenoble show. | ||

An audience member confirms this show went ahead. | ||
| 18/10/74 | Palais des Sports | Besançon, France |
