Notes:
Very good sounding recording, especially for a MD source with cardioids. Nice levels, low crowd noise & captures the mood of the gig exceptionally well. Lucky crowd... Tool played Jimmy, a song they didn't play much in 2002 other than at a handful of other gigs. Crowd noise is kept at a minimum as the instruments really sound nice coming out of the speakers. One of the better 2002 Australian/New Zealand tour recordings around. Perhaps the only major complaint or issue I foresee is that the recording is just seems, to my ears, to lack the overall "fullness" that a binaural recording will give you. This is, of course, up for interpretation & is entirely subjective. As it is, there seem to be two versions of this recording with this being the only source available in any capacity.

Maynardism:

"This is a song we don't normally do. It's a song about finding your way back home & we'd like to dedicate it to...Julian" <Jimmy>
