2001.06.01 - Nurburgring, Germany @ Rock Am Ring

Source: DAT -- Soundman OKM-IIr > Sony SBM-1 > Sony PCM-M1
Taper:   Sebastian

Notes / 2001: Great recording. Although there seems to be a lot of crowd chatter, at times, in the background of this recording, it is mostly un-noticeable as the sound of Tool fills all gaps. Interesting, there is almost constant talking but, for the life of me, I cannot distinguish anything at all...maybe because it is in German. Tool seems to be playing a bit more harder or edgier than in other performances. This is a rock-show, in all it's glory. For the collector's, this is one of the only shows, the only show with a recording in circulation, where Tool did -not- play Lateralus in 2001. For that fact alone, it makes this semi-more interesting. At least to me. Highly recommended performance & recording. Sounds like the taper was or may have been relatively close to the stacks as well. Always a plus.
