Notes:
Show was taped stealth, mics unkown, but most likely some variation on
the rig noted above. Levels were adjusted slightly in Soundforge.
Both discs could be joined seamlessly on longer media.
Seed dedicated in loving memory to Guy Gimbrone (2/6/69 - 9/9/03).
*****end original text--flac fingerprints omitted****
Notes:
-plays a touch slow
-Disc One 60:33
-Disc Two 55:12
-BB launches into the wrong intro, causing the false start. MS teases him "Stick to the script".
-Begin the Begin is aborted as MS botches the lyrics. As the band continues on, MS tries to re-join but comes in with the wrong verse, then calls the song to a halt.
=After Tongue MS "That song is very much a woman's song. I can always see you guys. We can all see you. There's a point to be made here. You can always spot the people that think they're really fascinating and that they could get laid really easily because they avert their eyes or sit down during that song. All the people who know what it's really like to be alive, they watch really closely. So that's why we announce it like you're in a roller rink and it's ladies choice".
-Before Star Me Kitten MS "That last song was a big hit on the radio about 600 years ago. This next song will never ever come anywhere near a radio station. It's perhaps the most self-indulgent song ever written".
-After Everybody Hurts, MS invites some friends backstage, then "We're gonna play three more songs and then we have to drive to Detroit [boos]. I like Detroit [more boos]. Well you know what? Everybody in Milwaukee doesn't like you either [cheers]". During the band intros, MS claims that Nathan buys his jeans at Urban Outfitters.
-Departure has a different keyboard part I think.
Grade: A
-boomy venue, nothing to be done about that.
