Notes another David Thomas recording. Its the best quality show Ive heard from the Pageant tour. Id give it an A-.

The show has an interesting start, with equipment and/or monitor problems derailing things seconds into the first song. Although this incident seems destined to launch the band into a show similar to the Toronto show the previous year, things do not get that exciting. The set is tight and well played, but they seem unable to bring it to the next level.
Natalie Merchant of 10,000 Maniacs guests during many of the encores, but I think the show falls apart when she appears, and her intrusive, off-key wailing on So. Central Rain ruins the song.
