I have to say this version is amazing. That first chord (A chord for you guitar players) is so think and awesome. Robs playing really speaks to me in this song. Love the articulation at 45 seconds into the song

I had to uninstall my torrent software because my PC wasn’t running right. I think it’s just too old to handle that kind of stuff. It sucks because the tracker is amazing and a little sad I cant use it...but maybe some day.

But this has a great setlist too! Its goes to Gus->Poets-> Thugs-> Luv(sic). That’s a great section of music

Tell me about it. I'm stuck in the sticks(by choice) and can't run bittorrent at all.

I was lucky enough to witness that show. And I have to say that night will stay fresh in my memory until I die.

probably the best live hip song ever, I've never seen it live before, it's a shame they dont play it more often live. The opening drum montage is amazing.

I was there, and it was awesome to hear some underplayed classics...definitely one of the highlights for the show!

those club shows were just incredible, any fans dream. Getting to hear Twist My Arm, So Hard Done By, Yawning or Snarling, Tiger the Lion, Save the Planet, 38 Years Old, Putting Down, Gems, Sherpa and Heaven in 2 nights in T.O. is almost beyond comprehension.

Me too, it was a really good show. Although the next night was far better. I wish the Hip would only play club gigs now. I'm so spoiled from those shows.
