Our friend Cesare was kind enough to send photos and details of Greg Dulli performing with Afterhours at the Primo Maggio festival in Rome. In the abbreviated set, Dulli played on all of the band’s selections: “Ballata Per La Mia Piccola Iena”, “Carne Fresca”, “Male Di Miele”, and took a turn on lead vocals for a cover of “Helter Skelter”. There were an estimated 680,000 people in attendance.
At their earlier Milan show, the band also covered “Atmosphere” by Joy Division.
