So, it's the penultimate gig at MSG! Reading some of the other reviews, I was expecting a relatively mailed-in performance. But to my ears, that's not the case at all here. The show starts strong with a fun "Let the Good Times Roll," with Brett in particular really delivering the goods. From there, we get a solid "Hell in a Bucket", which shows the band really firing on all cylinders. From here, things settle in a bit.

- ★★★★ · good quality · thorn726 · 2010
good quality sound on this. my first show. decent, but not great, as most of the other reviews said. US Blues was great for a first encore for me, Bobby says they always like to play it on Bobby's birthday, they got into it. i star any good recording high, every show is worth a listen if you like the setlist, even if only to compare it to a better version- loading up a 4 star show with terrible sound is very disappointing.
- ★★★★ · MSG too much too fast · dire--wolf · 2005
over all great show. sound qual is not as good as 9-16-88. duprees is a great touch. good times cuts at 1 min 7 sec. other than that, another classic NYC show. a must have for a true fan. 4 stars for sound quality.
