Sure. Sleight of Hand is far better on the album than live.

I used to think this song was really cheesy. But I get it now. It's good.

The part that I love is the last minute or two is so much heavier than on the album and McCready just absolutely slays it

Weirdly I thought this was their standout performance that whole night

Sure. Sleight of Hand is far better on the album than live.

The whole concert was great. The band sound heavy and Eddie's vocals were on point. Has he given up the cigs or something, because he's sounding great the past few years.
