Miss you Mikey.

This is huge for panic fans in my area, thank u WSP for showcasing our small city with this first live show release. Moe. also released a live recording from my hometown. The funny thing about this show, I was with a group of my friends and I had my ticket, my friends brought money from theirs. Somehow they lost all their money in the lot, and I stuck with my group and missed the show. Check out my page and enjoy the Carbondale scene!

WSP for life

WSP SUX!!!!

That's a sick set. I love it when they play Genesis. Let's Get Down to Business Opener. Climb To Safety Closer. Pretty sick.

pretty sweet ERS...Panic rocks, and its good to see them releasing some of Mikey's old shows. cant wait to hear it

maggot brain? holy shit

looks like FUN! if you wanna listen to a pretty cool podcast the lastest panicast on widespreadpanic.com has dave schools talking about the decision to move towards the archives and other fun stuff from backstage at their last spring stop in dallas... check it out on there website! cant wait for some good ole southern panic this summer!

clearly i didnt read the full article! my bad! click the link!! ha

My second show! (First was Murray KY the night before)

Also makes sense that they would reschedule the spring show in C'dale for this Fall to build off the momentum of the release.

Salukis!!!

Desoto Dave

man i love these guys!! thanks for the genesis in Richmond!! ROCKIN!

yeah man.....miss ya a lot Panic Houser.

this looks awesome, I've recently been getting into panic and was very stoked they would be coming to the SIU arena (a stones throw away from my dorm) this year on April 15th and then they CANCEL??? does anybody noe why?

Jimmy Herring > Houser

oh man, i was at the madison show on that tour, rocked my socks off!

that's when panic was panic! Houser Baby!

Dammit, everything looks great except that Safety closer. Yea..yea..yea... My least favorite closer of all time. I'll still get it and just turn it off early.

spring tour was sooo good this year. check out the companion the last time played had a good couple songs w/ 20 or more, sometimes, help me somebody. only played chilly a couple times! this herring era is just gettin started summer tour is gonna be good. i just dont know how you could not like this band

Great news that Panic is finally opening up the vaults.

For sure picking this one up. The spring tour was on fire!! Can't wait for Red Rocks!!!!

this band blows and they weren't any better with houser.....

im sure he was cool and a great guy though....... i just hate it when people act like he was soooo good cause he wasn't.

Too bad the show there was cancelled this year. This 3 disc will be a great release

"this band blows even with House." Yeah and the Popes not Catholic.

I agree that jimmy herring is a "better" guitar player than mikey was, but nonetheless as an older spreadneck I still feel that mikey WAS the band. I'm glad they're releasing older stuff, but i've had this show for years now. don't buy this shit when you can get it for free. trading's not dead!

I was there, I had SO MUCH FUN. spinning in circles for the entire show, it was magic!!!! It was one of the special shows with them, I always loved to go see them in the middle of nowhere, cos they brought the HEAT!!!!!!!

someone with a extremely GAY screen name like tranceful-delight, really knows good music... better listen to the expert.

Hey dedhed6111, trading is definitely not dead and I thoroughly enjoy my WSP audience recordings and soundboards (and tons of other bands-been taping for 10 years now). But you shouldn't discourage people from buying official releases. Bands need to make a living too. And we should appreciate that some of them allow taping. Besides on a good stereo a well done multi-track recording can't be beat. This sounds like a great one, I still listen to my shows w/Mikey sometimes and 2000-2001 was a great time.

Perfect timing on this release. This Spring Tour re-energized every single person who made it to one of the shows. Easily the best they've played thus far w/ Herring. (Although I have a feeling we'll be saying the for many tours to come.)

Carbondale is the tits. Stellar choice for the first one out. Gimme some 01 Oak Mtn next.

Does anyone know what happend to Sunny? WSP website states "Sunny is alive and Well"

The statement was to just squash the rumors floating around that Sunny might be leaving the band sometime soon. I can't imagine Panic w/o that badass who seems to hit it harder and harder the older he gets!

By the way....even Jimmy Herring himself said listening back to Panic's studio albums and earlier live recordings is some of the most amazing guitar playing he's ever heard. Just because Mikey didn't whale it all the time doesn't mean there weren't some fantastic melodies he created that not many others could even know where to begin.
