Notes: The quote by MJK at the bottom sums up entirely the tension between Paul & other members of the band. This seems to be the only time that Tool or MJK spoke out about feelings related to Paul leaving. Rather strong, isn't it? This is probably one of the best sounding VHS shows I've heard from the year of 1996. The video is very nice, a little out of focus sometimes but always above average & decent. Some real nice close-ups of the band, Maynard & the screen. It should be noted that my copy of this show is a 2nd Gen -apparently, the person who ripped this to audio bought it from a now defunct stone in San Francisco, CA some years ago.. The audio is extremely good for being sourced from VHS. Rare show & great performance. Apparently, this was taped by a Bayside (San Francisco) taper named 'Dave' and this was bought in a backroom at a now-closed record shop by Yvo from the taper.  Interesting little tale. Stinkfist is cut as only the last few seconds were recorded. Although Stinkfist is not on this CD transfer, a portion is available on the video of this show. Also, this performance by Tool was the last concert ever at this venue as it was bought by a church.

Maynardism:
"People keep asking where Paul is. That's really a funny questions, see, if Paul was still in the band then we wouldn't have a new fucking record. That's why Paul isn't in the band anymore."
