Comments
and Reviews:

Taken from Brent's Bootlegs:

This show begs to be a double CD boot. This bootleg cuts the following songs that should've been included: "A Passage to Bangkok", "The Trees", in addition to "Soliloquy" and "Grand Finale" from 2112. I really do not know why those were not included. The material is out there. The sound quality is mostly good but still lacking as many of the songs sound quite distant. This boot cannot match the exceptional sound captured in other boots from this tour such as "A Right to Passage" or "Cygnus Gold Edition". Still, it is an energized show and a decent listen.

Taken from Ron's Rush ROIO Review:

Let me start off by saying: this is one of my all-time favorite Rush shows. A solid, high energy performance from the boys on one of their final performances of the marathon "Hemispheres" tour. First off, it features the first live version of "Discovery" I had ever heard, and it?s an amazing one at that. The take of "A Farewell To Kings" will absolutely blow you away. This is truly an incredible show. Sound quality is the area where this one loses a few points. It sounds like, well, an audience tape. However, with a bit of EQing, it sounds pretty good. The instrument balance and mix are very solid. The only cut occurs when the tape switches sides, at the start of "Cygnus."
