Both merged songs 'Big Eyed Fish' and 'Bartender' fit together so well.'Don't Drink The Water' is so powerful in this double live cd, same for 'When The World Ends', 'JTR' and a sensitive extended version of'Angel'..among others. Maybe it's just me but I have noticed a slight weakness:The playing of maestro Carter Beauford. He played a little too safely. He did no mistakes at all, but he was slightly lazy on drums for my taste. That was a personal deception, but I did get over it pretty fast.'Cause hey, this is a DMB show! Setlist could have been better, but you can't always get what you want. Carter Beauford is still in my top 10 modern drummers, don't get me wrong. Overall it's an excellent live performance, sound is top notch and musicians are top shape, as usual.
R.I.P. LeRoy Moore.

This album does a fine job of capturing the energy that the band puts into their shows and in a few instances is a good display of their versatility and ability to jam. Most of the two disc set, however, is simply songs being performed exactly how they appear on the cd. The high spots are incredibly high, and the low spots drag on for uncomfortably long at times. Dave wails, Boyd shreds, and Carter bashes as much as they all possibly can, and it is a damn impressive result, but the real talent of the band lies in the subtle nuances of their performance and the chemistry that they share that lets them jam on so many different styles of music. It is this real talent, unfortunately, that is never displayed to its fullest potential here.
