CommentI have a lot to say about this gig, so I've added a full song sample to play while you read this. This show was special for a few reasons. First off, the linear notes were done by Arizona graphic artist Mike Buffington - nice job Mike and thanks.
Second off - Brian and I wanted to experiment with a more multi track approach to the live recording. We ended up taking a bunch of instruments separately and spent the entire next day mixing it down. The result is, I think, the best sounding mix of all the live shows yet. What your getting here is essentially a live album. The performances are great and there are no edits on this one. The only caveat is that Brian (our FOH engineer and partner in getting these shows for download) insists on letting it be known that there was a trifle bit of technical trouble during experimental film. I can't hear what he's talking about - but there you have it.
I'm subtitling this show "TMBG Live at Folsom Prison." While the club is a fine establishment, they felt the need to separate the drinkers from the 'soon to be' drinkers with massive amounts of metal fencing. Throughout the show the Johns refer to the 'criminal' aspect of the segregation created by the fence. The result felt like a gig in a maximum security rock club, completely surrounded by fans corralled into their various felony convictions, with a special fenced in area for visiting relatives. All that aside, a great crowd and a great, solid showing by the boys in TMBG.
Nice long set with a selection of songs, plus a few special surprises hidden among the tracks. No clues, but a hint of things to come.
