J-Card Comment Notes from transferer.
I did not tape this show - this is an acquired master. The taper, back in 2001, asked me to digitally master this to CD. He sent me the master MD's, I transferred to CD then offered him 'X' amount of CD's in exchange for his master. He accepted thus I hold the master and we never spoke again. Prior to our trade, he told me that he did a transfer of his this show & traded it out to a few people but there were all sorts of issues like track transitions, fade-outs & a 3 minute gap (he sent me a copy of it as well). The transfer I did does not have any of those issues. The times listed below are representative of the rip I made. This recording may also go around under the surname of: "Slim's Rash", referenced from something Maynard said. Really tight performance by Tool - the opening kind of 'jam' is just so... free-flowing. Quite cool. And honestly this recording should not sound as good as it does - it defies odds. Maynard seems to be especially talkative this night & seems to be having a good time doing his job. The instrumental section is as steady & polished as to be expected. One of the reasons why this recording is quite good is to the fact that the taper stood relatively close to the stacks so the sound is quite clear and, thankfully, there are no brick-walls but the bass sort of floods a bit. Although this recording will not change the way you think about music, it is a decent capture of the band. Surprisingly, this product was one of the first recordings Vincent had done. This is the last gig of Tool's 2001 European tour.
