After an absence of eighteen years, The Waterboys made a triumphant return to Universal Hall on September 16th & 17th 2024 for two very special three-man shows, featuring Mike, Famous James and Brother Paul.
The trio were also joined by a longtime friend of Mike and the band, David Hammond, who played on the closing number at the first show and the opening and closing numbers at the second show.
These were two extraordinary shows with beyond brilliant setlists, as anyone who was present will testify. Thank you again to Peter Vallance for these photos. Both of the Universal Hall 2024 setlists annotated by Mike for Peter Vallance.. A beautiful poster from the Universal Hall September 2024 shows that was only available to buy in the Hall itself. This poster was produced to raise funds for the upkeep of this very special place. A stained glass panel within Universal Hall. Thank you Marion Black. A framed selection of various posters, a tour programme and setlist on display in Universal Hall. Thank you Marion Black.

Two original posters for two sets of Waterboys shows in Findhorn in June 2004 and June 2006. The Waterboys played two electric shows in Findhorn in June 2003.
