Red Mosquito

Listened to part of Boise, 2000 today. So far so good. I think I have my new favorite live version of Grievance.

9/07/2006 Madrid. This is such a weird show. The band is tight but Ed is just...out of it. He makes a ton of serious lyrical mistakes, coming in early, coming in late...it's just not like him for this tour. I wonder if he was sick, or having some monitor issues. And yet, he sounds amazing, with a serious rasp on his voice that makes him sound 5-10 years younger at times.

Also weird about this show is that the encores are spaced in weird spots, with no first encore break at all. It just goes from "Evenflow" to "Severed Hand" with no real perceptible encore break. Such a weird bootleg...but interesting. Every version is either a mess or a great, great, great version among the best from the entire tour.

That european leg is awesome.

It is. That's what makes the Madrid show so weird. Ed was on point pretty much every show on that tour, so it's weird to hear him make so many mistakes. Like, he begins RVM with the second verse and sounds kind of confused throughout the show at times.

St. Paul 2014. Later, Atlanta '94 because it's the anniversary of the show and I haven't listened to it in a few years. Lifelong fan, new to this site and have been laughing my ass off at some of the comments around the board. I just can't with the "official" board anymore. They have no love for Binaural or Riot Act over there. I also let my membership lapse a couple of years ago...

Tulsa 2014. This is a damn fine show. Haven't heard any wine references.... He does ad a fucking to the word anything during Alive.

Listening to some songs from Leeds 2014, jumping around the setlist. Eddie sounds absolutely killer on some of these songs, holy shit.

That Leeds show is fantastic. I just listened to Cincinnati 2014, and that is a fine show as well. Very consistent all the way through with great versions of Pendulum, Nothingman, MYM, LBC, Black, RITFW.

Barcelona 2000 the other day. Most of the Binaural songs were a disaster, but there's a great Daughter in that show.

Both of these shows are excellent. I love a lot of the 2014 Tours. Listening to Toronto 1 2016. That's gotta be Bluto on the poster. It matches so well with St. Louis 2014.

Yeah, from what I've heard so far, I think 2014 is the best year of the LB tour.

I love the SP Radio one. So much.

In honor of the RNRHOF, Philly 2 2016. One of the last few shows that I'm catching up on. This one seems like a love letter to the city and I've not heard Ten in order for over 6-7 years. Later, it will be the Ten: Early Demos mix.

ETA: Philly lost me. I'm sure it was great in person, though. Switched to Bellingham 2000. The sound quality on this show's recording is on point! Nice thick bass and drum sound.

Fargo 2003. Jammy monster of a show.
