wow -- what a set. in a way it's been kind of frustrating experiencing only Daydream Nation or Rather Ripped sets the past couple of years -- this is like a "best of".

Finally got around to capturing this audio stream and separting the tracks, and saved as a WAV file so I can play on my regular cd player. I listened live as it was happening this past summer, but this archive is MUCH better quality. Thank you !! I wonder though, what bitrate is the stream ? I saw them in Brooklyn at the July 28, 2007 McCarren Pool show....my favorite band !!! They seem to play NYC better than anywhere else....I wonder why ? LOL
