I really wish I could've seen one of these shows, not the (fairly unenjoyable) festival set I saw earlier this year.
ME TOO!

Denver is my next (and maybe last) chance.

Just giving this audience boot a listen.

This is the best show I've heard from them in years and years

I'm fairly stunned

Having been at the show, it is coming over fantastically on the recording. Really looking forward to the official boot of this and MK.

Wow, this show is great and so is the audience recording. I kind of stopped listening to recent boots around 2008 but this a real winner.

Is it actually good or is the recording pretty wonderful along with a good mix of crowd jubilee, thus picking up some of the essence of a pj show that Stip says is so important?

It is actually good.

Is it just me or does it sound like they've slowed down certain songs (like Lightning Bolt)? I like them a bit slower.

While there may be some of the bias due to a nice crowd sound and a good audience recording, I do actually believe they nailed this show.

I'll give it another listen sometime soon, but some of the performances really stood out, and I thought Ed sounded great.

I remember the instrumental bit of Porch being very good. But then, I was blocked.
