Notes: Nice sound. Deep, rich - like silt on a river bed. However, the bass seems to be slightly heavy and the high end is not as crisp as one would assume it would be in a recording like this. The crowd is rather audible as well - complete with fans singing. Rather noticeable, at least to me, on the Grudge. There are some microphone movement, a little bit of phasing and the taper's hand or something brushing up against the mics. Although not criticisms in anyway, it is relevant that one should make a note of those issues. On the other hand, the recording is a very nice capture of Tool at a rather interesting point in their career. Good performance, good show & a good recording. Not much else to say.

Maynardism: "Good evening. Tonight, is all about pleasure. It is an absolute pleasure to see you again. It is an absolute pleasure to share the stage with King Crimson."
