Notes - by: Taper: Sound quality may suffer a bit due to extensive head-banging (which I always tell myself I'm not going to do when taping a TOOL gig, but always end up doing anyway).
Notes - by: Galen: The second performance of Tool's return to touring on the day 10,000 Days was released, the performance is not only powerful but the new material is spot-on in regards to any inconsistencies. From the standpoint of other mini-tour gigs, this recording picks up a great deal of MJK's vocals throughout the recording/performance. Not sure if the mix from the board was any different or this was something with the venue but MJK's vocals are clear, concise & pleasant. The microphone, a cardioid, was a wise choice as the highs & many of the subtleties of the music are accurately captured. In fact, this recording features a very clear reflection of the vocal effect MJK uses on Rosetta Stoned, something that is sometimes lost in other recordings. There are a few instances of over-powering crowd energy but this is a minor complaint. Definitely a pleasant experience to listen & enjoy.

'Sorry we haven't been more talkative, we uh. When we come to Seattle we're so uh, its intimidating. I mean this is pretty much, this is ground zero for everything that happened.  Of course I mean, Starbucks, ya know, the coffee. [crowd boos] But apparently it fostered some kind of music scene, I think its called uh, mundge or something. I'm not really good at spelling and I can't read.  So, ya have that going for ya.'

'Thank you very much for coming down, it's always a pleasure.  Next time we'll get totally naked.  Adam, anything to add?  Nothing.'
