2002.09.05 - Omaha, NE, USA @ Civic Auditorium

Source: DAT --- Nuemann SKM 140s > Sony PCM-M1 (Oade Bros Mod II) @ 48 KHZ
Position: Floor / Front of Stack
Taper: Smagmapig

Notes: This is a vibrant, clear, crisp, detailed & overall extremely clean recording of a performance that, surprisingly, is fantastic. The set list is not varied, per se, but by this time it seems that Tool have at least one more night of just giving it their all; and this was it? Maybe. There is a slight pause on this recording caused by a girl hitting or rubbing up against the taper who did not have the M1 on 'hold' (from what I recall via a discussion years ago) thus it is slightly, slightly incomplete. This is not a massive deal though although I cannot recall exactly which track this occurred for the review as I listened to this show many years ago & am currently giving it another re-hash for cu.org. It's kind of too bad this source never really made it out as it is just a fantastic recording. Man, it seemed like pretty much everything this particular recorded this tour turned into gold.
