A very nice and clean audience recording, little audience noise. I underrrated this, relistening to it I would rate it 10 if not for a very few tape hiss due to the first gen.
Before Can't stand losing you there's space as if the tape was changed, then some noise, as if the tape recorder wasn't working properly, then the song (with the beginning cut). Looks like the taper had problems. I cut the noise. There is a level issue during Can't stand losing you; I tried to correct it but it is still audible.
This is basically a "Zenyatta Mondatta" tour setlist with the addition of four songs from the forthcoming "Ghost in the machine" LP. It's worth listening to the first renditions of those songs, specially "Invisible sun". This should be the second (or forth, not sure) time they've ever been played in public.
