You posted the same trash on the Wier source too. Judging from the sound of the crowd I'd say there's a lot of people who don't share your opinion. I'd respect yours if you didn't just copy and paste it in order to spout trash. You do know that the only person you impress by sounding jaded is you, don't you? If even that.

I loved this show. A friend gave me a tape of the broadcast shortly after it. Two NFAs, great setlist, an energized crowd and band. First time I heard the "and again the hunt begins and again the blood wind calls" on T Stones (though I do like the spooky "the lights go on and off as the night birds call"). The call and response at the end of the second NFA - pure love fest from beginning to end. :-)

This is if not the worst, definite one of the worst New Year's shows ever! I'm sorry if you think you it was good, but please compare others such as 81-82 (best ever) for example, or even the closing of Winterland is much better than this. They get progressively worse after '82.

THIS IS THE BEST RECORDING OF THE NEW YEARS SHOW THIS YEAR. DONT BE AFRAID OF THE LINEAGE, THIS IS THE BETTER OF THE THREE. YOU WANT AUDIENCE SOUND BUT SOUNDBOARD QUALITY? YOU GOT IT. THE CROWD IS SO LOUD AND CLEAR AND THE BAND IS AS WELL. A MUST HAVE AND TRULY EPIC AND PRIMAL AND ALL THAT.
