Notes:
+=w/Sister Noika (from Saul Williams band) on cello
*=w/Gholpe System on bongos and backup vocals
^=w/Saul Williams on vocals
%=w/Kevin Choice doing a freestyle

     Gholpe System and then Saul Williams opened up the show.   Michael
   breaks a string during Everyone Deserves Music, which may be one of
   their best performances of that song due to the guest stars.   The
   sound on this show is superior.  Alls sbd should be mixed this well.  
   You can hear the most intricate nuances of every instrument and every
   voice.  Unbelievable.  You can hear Carl's pick as it hits each string
   on his thumping bass.  Don't let the low sound grade deter you from
   this show.  It scores low because of the static.
  
     Show wise, Dave starts into the wrong song on Do Ya Love.  But in
   general, the delicate subtle expressions in Michael's voice that mark
   those shows that he's really on compliment that same groove from the
   band.  This was the fifth concert in succesion since Dave rejoined
   after the birth of his new son.  Maybe that hiatus made it fresh for
   everyone when he came back.

  Show:  A
  Sound: B+  (it's a flawed A+)


Flaws:
  Out of balance slightly to the left?

  d1 t4   diginoise @ 0:30
  d1 t7   diginoise sprinkles during 1:25 - 2:00.
  d1 t8   diginoise @ 0:21
  d1 t10  1:52-3:09 Michael loses his mic.

  d2 t3   diginoise 1:00-1:20, 2:20,
  d2 t4   diginoise @ 7:46, 8:10
  d2 t5   slight static @ 2:00
  d2 t10  end is cut, but exists on DAT
