Listening to this show once, I have to admit that it didn't do that much for me. I couldn't really put my finger on it, but something felt off somehow. But then I decided to listen to it again today, and I am glad I did.
Basically, this is a great sounding, overall tight and virtually flawless performance. Yet it is also pretty straight forward, since the band hardly engages in dialogue, interruptions or arguments this time around. Personally I find that unfortunate, and I think it is exactly this that put me off a bit the first time around. Still, if you're up for a no-nonsense straight up musical performance to soothe the ears, then you might want to check this one out.
My personal highlights of this particular show are Promises and probably one of the most dynamic and fresh renditions of Reprovisional I have heard so far..
Note that the download might mess up the order of the first couple of songs though. Mine did.

Please Note: Available recordings have been mastered to correct for volume shifts, drop outs, etc. but some sonic anomalies will still exist, especially early in the set when the mix is being settled. The band has rated each show for sound quality and set the general price of a download at $5 per show. If you have a different price in mind feel free to utilize the alternative pricing option.
The metadata is slightly messed up which is why the first few tracks might not play in the right order as noted by Gunter. To fix it, use an MP3 tag editor to change the track number of "And the Same" to 4 (it is 3 in the download), and the track number of "Downed City" to 5 (it is 4 in the download). That should fix the problem, the rest of the track numbers are correct.
