being in the crowd for a Dave A era show obv a very different experience than listening to an average recording of it 20+ years later on a pair of headphones in your bedroom at night next to a box of man sized tissues

From what I gather this was spearheaded by “the rob”. His comments introducing the show alluded to the fact he’s been pushing for this shows release for a long time. Why? Because he was there as he was in the room and it was just .... THE BEST SHOW EVER AND THE BAND WAS PURE FIRE AND THE ENERGY IN THE ROOM blah blah!!’

If this is the case, at least it just means that the guy in charge is a dolt, not (necessarily) that they're out of other options.

It's pretty depressing to think the band's archival releases are dependent on whatever totally awesome shows this bozo went to in the 90s.

No arguments there. There have been some great shows in this series, though -- the most frustrating thing for me is the length of time in between releases (presumably because of the vinyl production -- Bruce Springsteen releases one of these per month, but only on CD and FLAC/mp3/etc.) and the blind spots to certain eras.

Im surprised that people are saying this isn't a good show. I was listening recently and the Even Flow was maybe one of the best live performances Ive ever heard from the band. Eddie was incredible on Go. But maybe I haven't heard enough 93 shows to compare. Recommendations of a better one?

Las Vegas is pretty cool...Indio too.

gave this a spin today! been a long time. Ed’s voice sounds great. And Dave A’s energy in classic form. What an era for PJ. If only someone could go back in time and take away Ed’s fugazi albums and anti-establishment girlfriend, we might still have this band

Looking back over these complainy comments in this thread is great… Ed specifically calls out white male american brats for the shit they complain about during this performance loosen up, life could be at lot worse

You're off-base here: Ed only became increasingly lame after he split with Beth, who was much cooler than he was.

it was just him trying to impress her

the spurned lover

showing her what she missed out on!

Thinking of editing this into the PJ Live Releases info page on wiki.
