*****************END ORIGINAL TEXT***************

 

Notes:

-BITW takes place in "Anywhere, USA"

-Dropout in the intro to IOL.  MS draws a comparison ith the election results and Mexico's Day Of The Dead.

-MS admits he didn't want to perform ATS but decided that this "song of hope" was needed

-Autobiographical intro to IWTB

-MS before PV is still struggling to grasp election results "Music willo provide the light you cannot resist".

 

Grade: D

-This is not a bad recording but it is below average relative to the other shows to date on this tour.  I'll revisit this grade if I see quality drop off later on.
