Additional comments (by S. Zumsteg): In the soundcheck, we have the evolution of Kite, back when they were still learning how to play it. Also the frustration with New York arises, as in a future soundcheck we will learn it was one show from being dropped if they didn't get it right that night (Anaheim). They were very upset with the dynamics of the opening part vs the chorus (they felt there was no change in dynamics) and they could not figure out how to fix that.

Comments

Excellent ALD / IEM tape with a few interferences and a little hiss, but pretty clear and solid anyway. As mentioned above, they were still fixing Kite, and had some issues that they discussed about New York.
