Subject: Great show.
Great show there.

Reviewer: EAB1977 - - April 26, 2009
Subject: I was there.
I was present at this concert. I have been to 4 Decemberists concerts and this is the first time I heard them cover Echoes.



The sound quality on the FLAC's is very good. It is a shame The Decemberists have not authorized streaming availability for the archive service.

By the way I meant to say 5 stars, not 4!
I consider this concert to be in the top 15 of concerts I have been to and I have been to a lot more than 15 concerts.

Very good, excellent quality!






Thanks for the upload.

Reviewer: SethWoodworth - - July 19, 2008
Subject: Amazing
This is:
a.) great recording quality
b.) an amazing concert
c.) a quality band
d.) many other superlatives

Thank you, I missed this concert as well. This is one of the best things I've found on IA.

Also. The Decemberists doing Pink Floyd - Meddle Side Two - Echoes ? One of the singularly most awesome things I have ever heard. I so badly wish I could have been at this concert.

For those of us who were affected by the cancelled tour, this recording is a FABULOUS testament to what was missed! Hopefully health is restored and additional venues will continue in the new year. Absolutely - this *is* the best Decemberists recording *I've* heard - a *great* balance of audience and crystal clear music. You close your eyes and you're right there! May our derby's tip to Sir Skalinder, and many vessels of swarthy brew tipped in his favor!

Thanks for posting this, sounds great! Note: This is the first concert, "Long of it", of two days spent in Chicago. 2007-10-29 is the second half, "Short of it".
