1993.07.31 - Houston, TX, USA @ Houston Raceway (Lollapalooza)
Main Stage
Source: Sound Board > Analog Cables > Cassette-M > DAT-2 @ 32 KHZ
Taper: Sound Engineer
Gen: DAT-2
Notes: Ah, one of the more interesting boards from this era of Tool. So how did someone manage to sneak in firecrackers into a concert? What is next - audio recording equipment? Give me a break. Flawless performance and you can tell that the band is having a good time... I say that even with some pretty severe guitar-related issues during Intolerance. Just about halfway through the song, Adam's guitar just cuts out & where you would normally hear a riff there is only Danny tapping on cymbals, which, in and of itself is pretty cool. Although there is something almost haunting about Layne Staley of Alice In Chains vocals on Opiate, the end result is nonetheless powerful, intense & relevant today is it was in 1993.
