* with Jake Cinninger (guitar, drums), Andy Farag (percussion), Ryan Stasik (Gouldy's bass) of Umphrey's McGee, as well as keyboard player from 1000 Vertical Feet on keys
Also a "Shine on You Crazy Diamond" (Pink Floyd) tease

The levels through the show are a little shifty. The taper was adjusting. Beware of a quick surge feedback during Ed & Molly.

Subject: Thanks John for the transfer

I've only listened to disk 3 so far.
Metropolis:
The thing is, I love Umphrey's, and anyone who has been on the Particle section of archive knows: I'm a P.P. Head. Metropolis here, though, I feel spends too much time on stroking. The first 1/4 is nice, and the last piece is nice, but in between they're just passing off solo spots; which can be nice- but the whole format of the song seems to get lost amidst the spotlighting.
Other Desert Cities:
Wow is this version unbelievable. I don't know what got into them, but holy wow did they put their entire hearts into this one... I will be listening to this Cities again, and again.
5 stars for Other Desert Cities.
Peace and much, much groove.
Update: Disk 1
Their off, their on; then their on, then their off till about Elevator.
Three stars for Disk 1's performance.
Peace and much groove.
Update:
Disk 2
Stick with Other Desert Cities: its unstoppable and IMHO the only FULLY redeeming part of this show. There are moments all throughout, but only the Cities slams from note one till the final bell.
Peace and much groove.
