fav recorded shows
i love the quailty of sound and the musicianship of course on 2-15-98, the WERS show... that julia's kitchen sounds like they were being influenced by a higher power. love that one.
im surprised 6-27-00 hasnt got a mention yet... great quality and hgue setlist, not to mention the crowd in that one is so quiet yet enthusiastic, would have loved to be there.
5-1-03 at URI was pretty sweet. there werent too many people there, and I don't know if the recording quality is like really good or what, but the way it sounds gives the show such a cool kind of sound... i know its not real crisp recording but it more accuratley represents what its like to see the slip... for me anyway.
2-25-00 is possibly the most on fire the slip has ever been recorded. especially the you might say, when brat is singing/scating over his solo... and then it leads into that cool jam they only play once in awhile during spice groove/YMS. also catacea in the begining is done better than the album in my opinion.
another show that comes to mind is 3-27-03.. the first time played at the narrows. i think at the time there was a rumor that it would be remixed and be a double disc release. The two acoustic openers are so good... the recording quality again has a tinge of static and it istn too crisp.. which for some reason is the way i love it. that was an awsome night too, great setlist, and tenfold -- ah, tenfold.
theres a few others, and i think someone mentioned a one-disc-er from around 00 and i think i know that one, and it is great, i agree. haha.
i have to throw in a shout out to a lost gem, one who's recording may never surface... but will live on eternally as my favorite slip show ever, 10-10-04 at buttonwood in middletown, CT. it was the absolute perfect blend of old and new, opening with song and reddish moon, and spanning time to munf, trane-ing, even rats, river sang to buddah, and closing with rhythm and gold.. not a complete setlist but you get the idea. less than or around 100 people, who were sitting for alot of the show for space reasons. that place was seriously like the size of some of the stages theyve played on in the past... what a night that was. ah, memories.
